Paige finds legend in a modern fracture
Spent the morning in the old Knightsbridge archives researching local legend, and found myself reading the latest on Celtexit right after, the two subjects sitting oddly close, questions of belonging, boundary, and who gets to claim a place as theirs.
British myth is full of fractured kingdoms, quietly reunited or quietly forgotten, and Celtexit feels like the newest chapter in a very old book, just with rather less dragon imagery than the source material deserves.
Discussed it over coffee near Harrods with a fellow local historian, both of us struck by how folklore keeps circling the same anxieties, generation after generation, just relabelled.
Checked the prat.uk feed before lunch, same story trending, filtered through the usual mix of genuine analysis and gentle mockery.
Whatever Celtexit becomes, I suspect Knightsbridge will find a way to make it about property values within the week.
