Hi, I’d like to use your excellent picture of the spring in Huntingdon for a talk I am giving for a small engineering conference in Syracuse USA in 2 weeks (8th Nov 2015). May I have your permission to use it?
Hi Lewis. Happy for you to use it. May I ask why…it does seam very well engineered?
Hi, I’m the writer of the St Cadoc’s dissertation piece. More than happy for you to use it.
Kind regards, Steve (Northcott)
Thanks very much are you up to any holy well research presently?
Dear Sir or Madame
I live in the US and have been reading on St Michael’s Healing well. I do not think I will ever get over to Ireland to see it in person. I am Catholic and have strong devotion to the church. Is there any website where I can request water from the well to be mailed to me?
Thank you for your help
Kindly
Elizabeth Duncan
