Subject: RE: BS: Cornish toes? Take your shoes off
Wow! That's great! I've always felt an afinity with Werewolves. The New-age leaves me yawning, but The Old-age! Another thing entirely.
I've just been thinking about another aspect of the Cornish-toed Bendigo Apollo (way up at the top of this thread) and I recall that he is being saved by what looks like a Kelpie wearing a collar. The doggy kind, not the mythological beastie. Perhaps, though, there is a Werewolf message somewhere in there. I love this statue, it has all kinds of conflicting ideas expressed in it. For one - the big cat attacking Apollo is not a male lion as you would expect but what looks like a lioness with balls. I can't find any reference to any other kind of big cat in connection with Apollo.
But I'm raving. Joy
