St Piran's day at Magnolia Friends
We have our lovely Stuart from Cornwall and we have celebrated this day for a few years now at our group here in Burntwood Memorial hall.
What is St Piran's day it
honours St Piran, the patron saint of Cornwall.
Legend has it he was chained to a millstone and cast out to a stormy sea from a cliff top. However, upon entering the sea, the waters calmed around him, the wind died down to a gentle breeze and he was sailed upon the millstone safely to Cornwall, landing on the 5th March, which later became his feast day.

Dean Williams fund raiser for Help the Heroes joined Magnolia Friends Burntwood yesterday with his own Penny Farthing.

Mr Dean Williams got the penny farthing for his 50th birthday.

He said: "They were built for touring. They're very comfortable, they're fun and they're a bit more challenging than a normal bike.

"I've got a sore back from my time in the army, so I can't run or ride a racing bike, so the penny farthing is just brilliant - you're nice and upright."

Mr Dean Williams, who has also ridden on a unicycle, said the penny farthing attracts a lot of attention.

"It's phenomenal. Everybody wants to toot their horn at you or wave or just stop and look," he said.

"It's just brilliant putting smiles on people's faces.
Thank you Dean it was a pleasure to meet you. Your amazing. X πŸ’š
