Nina Antonia(@NinaAntonia13):#FolkloreSunday What would summer be without storms? Many believed that the best place to hide from a storm was beneath an Oak but in Sussex there is an old rhyme: 'Beware of the oak, it draws the stroke. Avoid the ash, it courts the flash. Creep under a thorn, it can save you from harm.' (art Maxim Vorbiev 1842)
