This morning I get to refresh my memory on the history of the Lindisfarne Gospels.I'm trying to resist the urge to go down the rabbit hole of the cult of St. Cuthbert. There's no way that will be relevant to my article.But, heck, it's Friday, and who am I kidding? Rabbit hole, here I come!#FridayFun #MedievalManuscripts

@grammargirl I mean, come on, cults are especially inviting rabbit holes to keep you from getting shit done. I love that.

@grammargirl Have you seen the animated film the Secret of Kells? If you haven't, you must. Your mention of the Lindisfarne Gospels reminded me of it. The most beautiful movie I have ever seen. As you might expect, it features a book.

"Cuthbert grew up in or around Lauderdale, near Old Melrose Abbey, a daughter-house of Lindisfarne."Hear me out! It's "Melrose Place" meets "Downton Abbey"...in Florida!

@grammargirl No. No. No. Florida has enough problems. With new ones arriving every day...behind the wheel of a U-Haul. A little mercy for the sunshine state.

@grammargirl We make a point of watching it every March, but why wait? It's also a very well-edited movie of reasonable length - well under 2 hours. That seems rare nowadays.

@grammargirl What about the cult of St Guinefort ?Not sure that it would be that relevant for your article, but it may help with rabbit holes...
