Folksy Friday...Roosters!

I have a lively collection of ole' Roosters for you from the wonderful 'Folksy' store! However, I saw Mark Rylance's performance as Johnny "Rooster" Byron in Jez Butterworth's play 'Jerusalem' and he's truly outstanding and as lively as you can get. Rough, defiant, funny, bad, proud...with a salty West country accent. He grapples with national identity and pride and puffs out his chest. A superb eccentric character...living on the edge. More tea Vicar?















If you like the Folksy choices...go click on the links to read up a little more. Show some love for those independent traders!
