Puzzlewood is an ancient woodland site, near Coleford in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, England. The site, covering 14 acres, shows evidence of open cast iron ore mining dating from the Roman period, and possibly earlier.

In 1848 some workmen, after moving a block of stone in the woods, found a small cavity in the rocks. In this cavity, hidden away, were three earthenware jars containing over 3,000 Roman coins. No-one knows why the coins were hidden away in the cliff face nor by whom.

J. R. R. Tolkien, a frequent visitor to the Forest of Dean, may have visited Puzzlewood, and many believe Puzzlewood was the inspiration for the fabled forests of Middle-earth, such as the Old Forest, Mirkwood, Fangorn or Lothlórien contained within The Lord of the Rings. J.K Rowling is also said to have visited Puzzlewood, and it may have been this that influenced her idea of The Forbidden Forest in the Harry Potter books.

Somebody come visit with me.

I think they filmed a scene for Merlin there

gosh wow i’m looking into working in Foreign Service after my time in Korea (and wherever else I want to teach) and it’s really exciting and looks like something I could do, and something I’d be GOOD AT.

And I’m reading and dreaming and all of a sudden my brain is like, “but wait.. bOYS?!? what if.. no boys! Ever! Too much travel no boys will want!!” I know it’s ridiculous to think I’ll never get married because of what I want to do, but wow that was a sudden and scary thought. I WANT to get married, I WANT to have a family life, but I also want to pursue the life and career that’s best for me. They don’t have to be mutually exclusive.

In conclusion: brain, shut up. It’ll work out, don’t be dumb.

My grandpa is interacting with the show we’re watching by trying to predict what’s going to happen. He’s very good. It’s taking all the mystery out of Doc Martin

Anyone else notice Mushu the dragon is Mulan’s tattoo…?

This is the coolest shit I have ever seen.

Let’s not forget this one

…this is the first time I’ve seen disney princess stuff that I’d actually want as prints. Also, part of me is glad Tiana’s not in this bunch bc there’s only so much potential to be wrong-headed about things from my cultural background I can take in a day. But if this artist actually got it? Tiana, queen of the zombies would be amazing.

anyone else notice how mulan is the avatar

Oh god.

except that tiana is indeed in this series and she’s the best fucking one period

actually shit they left out kida, tiana, pocahontas, rapunzel and maid marian

Holy shitballs!

Disney seen through a darker lens. I love it. I can’t choose a favourite.

who decided that you need some deep back story in order to justify your tattoo if you think a deer is gonna look cool as hell on your arm then go ahead and get it tattooed

“Lee wasn’t working that day, so he was just lounging. He’s 6’4”, so he’s a lot of boy, and he was wearing cowboy boots. I was kind of staring at him, because he painted such a picture, and the director came over, and I was completely in this land of admiring Lee. And Bharat [Nalluri] goes over and tells him, ‘Can you leave the set? Amy’s distracted by your masculinity.’ I was so mortified. But he’s so much fun, too. He’s got such a zest for life. He’s a really good actor. So that’s my gush about Lee Pace. I hope I’m not blushing.” -Amy Adams, on the set of Miss Pettigrew
