We discuss our takes on The Bitter Withy, a mysterious 14th century tune from Hereford where young Jesus gets lashed by his mother for murdering a couple of posh lads.

We then discuss the brilliant submissions from the community  and introduce next month's tune, Edward, a beautifully simple tale of fratricide and a study in the economy of storytelling.
