I was just reading the entry in Cormac's Glossary about Manannán mac Lir - for the hundredth time. And typically, something jumped out at me that I seem to have missed before. O'Donovan (the translator) adds a note, which includes the following:

"He is still vividly remembered in the mountainous district of Derry and Donegal, and is said to have an enchanted castle in Lough Foyle."

I wonder whether he has got it slightly wrong, and is referencing the "Lough Foyle Colloquy Text" or the one about Bran son of Febal going down the well to seek treasure, but maybe not. Anybody know about this legend. References especially appreciated.

Look – I’ve got a six week class about Manannán starting tomorrow (Sunday). It’s tiered pricing, and I still have four of the cheapest ($25) tickets left. Most people have been paying me full price. It’s a nice problem to have, but I’d love to see the low priced tickets get used. The class is ‘scholarly’ and covers Manannán in the Isle of Man, Ireland, evidence for his worship in Scotland, and also Manawydan fab Llŷr.

Here’s the link with all the information. https://app.tickettailor.com/events/krishughes/2138091 Don’t be shy!

I run a lot of Zoom meetings from home. One of my laptops is pretty much dedicated to Zoom meetings and is permanently set up with an external camera and lights (Laptop A).

I mostly work from Laptop B - and use it to schedule meetings, download Zoom recordings, etc. So Zoom clearly recognises this computer as the same account. Both laptops are run from the same IP address.

Yesterday, I needed to run a scheduled meeting from Laptop B. (I use the web, not the app). I logged in, found the relevant meeting, hit 'Start meeting" ... and Zoom suddenly didn't seem to recognise me as the host. I was running late, was a bit flustered, fiddled around and got the meeting going.

Any idea why it didn't recognise me as the host?
