Today, as you know, is All Hallows’ Day [all saints, tousssaint], the day we remember those who suffered for their Maker. Because we didn’t personally know these people, it’s a little hard to get enthused, as it would be difficult to get enthused over some village in Somalia or the Sudan which has just suffered atrocity. Easier to be outraged over, say, climate change. Human nature. Anyway, that’s today; yesterday was All Hallow’s evening [or Hallowe’en] and tomorrow is All Souls Day. Just to set the record straight, like.
