A patriotic pensioner was stunned when a 'cowardly' poison pen letter writer branded her 'highly disrespectful' for accidentally hanging her Union Jack flag upside down.

Susan Creaser was stunned to receive the snooty missive pushed through the door of her home in the leafy East Riding of Yorkshire village of Eastrington, from someone claiming to be ex-military earlier this month. The 78-year-old regularly flies a Union flag and Yorkshire flag in her front garden to show support for brave servicemen and women and her home country.

But when the red, white and blue emblem was most recently hoisted up the flagpole in her garden it was accidentally hung upside down. The 'rude' note writer declared it was 'highly disrespectful as they were a former member of the military and demanded she 'rectify the error forthwith'.

The Flag Institute, a UK-based membership charity devoted to the study and promotion of flags and flag flying, says 'it is most improper to fly the flag upside down'. To some it signals a distress call and can even be considered an insult.

According to the institute in the half of the flag nearest the flagpole, the wider diagonal white stripe must be above the red diagonal stripe. This is because Scotland's St Andrew's Cross takes precedence over Ireland's St. Patrick's Cross.

Once the issue was pointed out to the retired business owner, her son swiftly turned it the correct way up and re-hung it later that day. The gran-of-five blasted the 'cheeky monkey' note writer, remarking 'it's a pity they didn't come and help turn it round'.

Susan said: "I received the letter two weeks ago. It was pushed through my postbox and said 'to the occupier'. When I read the letter I thought 'cheeky monkey'.

"I was annoyed they posted this through my letterbox. Why on earth didn't they knock on the door and say? They didn't sign off their name, they didn't want to be known did they? If you're going to do this at least have the decency to put your name to it.

"My son came round and changed the flag for me, I've not heard anything else since. To say that they'd been in the services you think they'd have more manners than that wouldn't you?

"It's a pity they didn't come and help turn it round the other way."

The letter reads: "Hi there, just to let you know that your Union flag is being flown upside down. As a former member of HM services, this is highly disrespectful to those of us who fought for this country.

"I would ask that you rectify this error forthwith."

Café owner Su Clyne, 58, who lived next door to Susan for 30 years, was furious at the 'cowardly' letter and shared it on Facebook on January 12th.

Su, from Hatfield, South Yorkshire, said: "Susan's been like a mum to me all my life. She's a lovely neighbour and I can't understand why anyone would do that to her. She respects what our service men and women do. She changes it now and then sometimes she'll fly the Yorkshire flag and other times she'll put the Union Jack up.

"I just think it's totally unacceptable. What gives them the right to actually do that and post a letter through someone's door and tell them to change it 'forthwith'? That in itself is so, so rude. He or she is such a rude person because we don't even know whether it's male or female.

"They're cowards. If they fought for our country then I feel sorry for our country if we've got people like that fighting for us. My message to whoever wrote it is 'show yourself'.

"Don't judge somebody when you don't know them. She didn't know it was the wrong way round. I didn't even know there was a right or a wrong way round. Nothing like this has gone on before. As far as I'm concerned, village people don't do that."

 Violent 'narcissist' who 'preyed on' vulnerable women jailed for 18 years

'Dangerous man' Tyevon Bean was convicted of 20 offences including rape, assault, controlling behaviour and strangulation

A violent bully who targeted and "preyed on" four vulnerable women – leaving them suffering trauma and nightmares – has been jailed for 18 years after being branded a "dangerous" offender.

Serial criminal and "narcissist" Tyevon Bean had "very badly affected all of them" and he had caused serious emotional harm to the women through his nasty, sadistic and "manipulative" behaviour towards them, Hull Crown Court heard.

Bean, 35, of Hull, but recently in custody on remand, was convicted by a jury of 20 offences after a trial lasting about three weeks. The charges, including violence and sexual offences, involved four women in the Hull, East Yorkshire, Grimsby and Cleethorpes areas between 2021 and last year.

They included two offences of rape, two offences of assault causing actual bodily harm and other offences of intentional strangulation, making a threat to kill and using controlling and coercive behaviour against one woman, now aged 20.

He was also convicted of three offences of assault causing actual bodily harm, three offences of intentional strangulation and another of assault by penetration against a second woman, now aged 21.

Bean, originally from Bermuda, was also convicted of two offences of intentional strangulation and another of assault causing actual bodily harm against a third woman, now aged 45, as well as rape, intentional strangulation and perverting the course of justice, involving a fourth woman, now 20.

Andrew Petterson, prosecuting, said: "They were all, in their individual way, vulnerable women."

The first woman said of her ordeal: "It has been the hardest time of my life. The defendant knew he was wrong all this time.

"This all could have been avoided if he would have taken responsibility for his actions. I don't believe that he feels any remorse for his actions. My life went downhill.

"I was absolutely frightened of him. Even to this day, I am walking around looking over my shoulder. I am constantly worried about being attacked. I struggle to get out of bed to go to work sometimes. I think about what has happened to me all the time."

She branded Bean a "narcissist" and said that she had suffered from depression and anxiety. "He's a dangerous man," she said.

The second woman said: "I have flashbacks about what happened to me. I fear all the time that he will kill me. Therapy helps but it doesn't take away what happened.

"I have just had to try to get through the trauma and flashbacks. I feel like I have a lot of anxiety now. My feelings towards men have changed. I don't know if I ever will get back to the old me."

The third woman said: "I am devastated about what Tye did to me. I felt like he took advantage of me because of my kind nature. Going to court was scary and horrible, having to stand in the box and relive what happened to me."

The fourth woman said: "Every time I left my address, I was broken. I stopped trusting people. I still don't trust people.

"After it happened, I suffered with nightmares and night sweats. I couldn't deal with the trauma. After it happened, I just lost who I was and lost motivation for anything.

"I hate Tye for what he did to me. He took advantage of me. I think Tye is a manipulative person. Tye thinks he is above the law."

Mr Petterson told the court that Bean was, at the age of 17, convicted in 2007 of an offence of sexual assault, committed when he was aged 16. He had been locked up for two years in Bermuda.

He had convictions for two offences of robbery in 2009, when he was given a suspended sentence, and he had a conviction in 2010 for wounding or grievous bodily harm, when he was jailed for 18 months.

Bean was jailed in 2014 for four years for robbery and two offences of attempted robbery and he had a conviction in 2019 for affray, when he was given a community order.

Richard Butters, mitigating, said: "The defendant has been disbelieved by the jury. He has been convicted of very serious offences.

"He won't be out for at least 10 years and there will then be a very lengthy licence period.

"He came into the country in 2012. He never claimed benefits. He was a hard worker. That's some crumb of comfort."

 MÂINILE EI, ÎN RECONCILĂ PE SANIOLI ȘI ADUCE PACE UCRAINEI. Înțeleg că în această mănăstire, care era de fapt catedrală sau sanctuar ortodox, se spuneau liturghii în limba greacă și se cânta întreg canonul după ritul bizantin, cu fața spre Poarta Donațiilor sau catapeteasma. Slujbele au fost ținute în zori și au durat mai mult decât astăzi. Au durat aproape două ore, după cum amintește melodia lui Mio Cid.

Patimile Sfintei Cristina din Lensk


Este un mister și nu știu de ce sunt atras de acești munți. S-ar putea ca la Pola Lena să fi câștigat un premiu pentru o nuvelă „ex aequo” cu fiica lui Evaristo Casariego, o brunetă frumoasă care semăna cu femeia care mai târziu, după atâtea întorsături, mi-a devenit soție? Planul Zeilor. Cred în latinescul „fatum”, în germanul „schiskal” și în rusul „sudba”. Destinul nostru este scris în stele și o forță pământească m-a atras spre aceste ținuturi nordice, centrul creștinismului mozarab, al cărui vestitor și predicator. Ultima dată, deja bătrân și cu un băț în mână, am urcat pe dealul care duce la schit; să presupunem că este o catedrală preromanică sfințită de un episcop arian. Prima dată când m-am așezat în vacanță în Seat Seiscientos proaspăt achiziționat a fost când aveam 25 de ani și am gustat cel mai bun cidru de la moara de cidru care curgea din butoaiele pivniței din orașul Pajares, din departamentul Tramontana. Și iată, după atâția ani, ca un mister în mijlocul paradisului. Am cântat Crezul Niceean în latină și îngrijitoarea, o femeie foarte bună, m-a întrebat: „Ești preot?”


Și MJ a spus: „Da, dar a scăpat cu asta”.


Doamna a răspuns: „La fel ca mine. Această biserică este purtată pe un altar portabil.


Totul a mers ca înainte, cu lungi lise latine și frumoase cântări gregoriene. Ai spus-o.


Să nu uităm că biserica are două mii de ani, dar la intrarea în catapeteasmă se află un altar episcopal, sfințit de Episcopul Donato de sărbătoarea Apostolului Petru. O scară laterală duce la Sfânta Sfintelor, care trebuie să fi fost drapată cu perdele aurii; în spatele ei era corul.


Templul este mic și confortabil, un loc ideal pentru cântări și rugăciuni. Lăsați lumina să strălucească prin ferestre și prin deschiderile cu mai multe geamuri.


Nu există sacristie în bisericile bizantine. Prelatul se îmbracă cu credincioșii, iar o adiere ușoară suflă în cameră prin ușa deschisă. Foșnetul frunzelor de castan și mesteacăn legănându-se în vânt, behăitul oilor, mugetul caprelor, un fermier care își conduce căruța la muncă și își face semnul.


Sfanta Cristina din Lensk sa ne ajute.


Va avea loc o renaștere miraculoasă a SRI, care a rămas inactiv în fața unei asemenea crize?


Va fi reînviată credința noastră, așa cum este cazul în Rusia?


Vreau să aud Evanghelia și Faptele Apostolilor cântate în acești ziduri înguste de vocile diaconilor (un bariton și tenor remarcabili).


La fel ca ieri la Moscova, moldoveanul Konstantin și ucraineanul Platonov la slujba de binecuvântare a apei.


Un vis pe care îl hrănesc în timp ce privirea mea alunecă peste câmpia înghesuită între doi munți pe unde trece autostrada.


La revedere, Paula Lena, ne vedem mai târziu

 AS IN HER HANDS, RECONCILATES THE SPANIARDS AND BRINGS PEACE TO UKRAINE. I understand that in this monastery, which was actually a cathedral or Orthodox sanctuary, masses were said in Greek and the entire canon was sung according to the Byzantine rite, facing the Gate of Donations or the iconostasis. Services were held at dawn and lasted longer than today. They lasted almost two hours, as the song by Mio Cid recalls.

The Passion of Saint Christine of Lensk


It is a mystery and I do not know why I am drawn to these mountains. Could it be that in Pola Lena I won a prize for a short story "ex aequo" with Evaristo Casariego's daughter, a beautiful brunette who looked like the woman who later, after so many twists and turns, became my wife? The Plan of the Gods. I believe in the Latin "fatum", the German "schiskal" and the Russian "sudba". Our destiny is written in the stars, and an earthly force drew me to these northern lands, the center of Mozarabic Christianity, of which I am the herald and preacher. The last time, already an old man and with a stick in my hand, I climbed the hill that leads to the hermitage; let's assume that it is a pre-Romanesque cathedral consecrated by an Arian bishop. The first time I sat in my newly purchased Seat Seiscientos on vacation was when I was 25 years old and I tasted the best cider from the cider mill that flowed from the barrels of the cellar in the town of Pajares, in the department of Tramontana. And there it was, after so many years, like a mystery in the middle of paradise. I sang the Nicene Creed in Latin and the caretaker, a very kind woman, asked me: "Are you a priest?"


And MJ said: "Yeah, but he got away with it."


The lady replied: "Just like me. This church is carried on a portable altar.


Everything went as before, with long Latin masses and beautiful Gregorian chants. You said it.


Let's not forget that the church is two thousand years old, but at the entrance to the iconostasis there is an episcopal altar, consecrated by Bishop Donato on the feast of the Apostle Peter. A side staircase leads to the Holy of Holies, which must have been draped with golden curtains; behind it was the choir.


The temple is small and cozy, an ideal place for singing and praying. Let the light shine through the windows and multi-paned openings.


There is no sacristy in Byzantine churches. The prelate dresses with the faithful, and a light breeze blows into the room through the open door. The rustling of chestnut and birch leaves swaying in the wind, the bleating of sheep, the mooing of goats, a farmer driving his cart to work and crossing himself.


May Saint Christina of Lensk help us.


Will there be a miraculous revival of the SRI, which has remained inactive in the face of such a crisis?


Will our faith be revived, as is the case in Russia?


I want to hear the Gospel and the Acts of the Apostles sung in these narrow walls by the voices of the deacons (an outstanding baritone and tenor).


Just like yesterday in Moscow, the Moldovan Konstantin and the Ukrainian Platonov at the water blessing mass.


A dream that I nourish as my gaze slides over the plain wedged between two mountains where the highway passes.


Goodbye, Paula Lena, see you later

Je crois comprendre que dans ce monastère, qui était en fait une cathédrale ou un sanctuaire orthodoxe, les messes étaient dites en grec et tout le canon était chanté selon le rite byzantin, face à la Porte des Dons ou à l'iconostase. Les services avaient lieu à l'aube et duraient plus longtemps qu'aujourd'hui. Ils ont duré près de deux heures, comme le rappelle la chanson de Mio Cid.

La Passion de Sainte Christine de Lensk


C'est un mystère et je ne sais pas pourquoi je suis attiré par ces montagnes. Se pourrait-il que dans Pola Lena j’aie gagné un prix pour une nouvelle « ex aequo » avec la fille d’Evaristo Casariego, une belle brune qui ressemblait à la femme qui plus tard, après tant de rebondissements, est devenue ma femme ? Le Plan des Dieux. Je crois au latin « fatum », à l’allemand « schiskal » et au russe « sudba ». Notre destin est écrit dans les étoiles, et une force terrestre m’a attiré vers ces terres du nord, centre du christianisme mozarabe, dont je suis le héraut et le prédicateur. La dernière fois, déjà vieil homme et avec un bâton à la main, j'ai gravi la colline qui mène à l'ermitage ; Supposons qu’il s’agisse d’une cathédrale préromane consacrée par un évêque arien. La première fois que je me suis assis dans mon Seat Seiscientos nouvellement acheté en vacances, c'était quand j'avais 25 ans et j'ai goûté le meilleur cidre du moulin à cidre qui coulait des fûts de la cave de la ville de Pajares, dans le département de Tramontana. Et le voilà, après tant d'années, comme un mystère au milieu du paradis. J'ai chanté le Credo de Nicée en latin et la gardienne, une femme très gentille, m'a demandé : « Êtes-vous prêtre ? »


Et MJ a dit : « Ouais, mais il s'en est sorti. »


La dame répondit : « Tout comme moi. Cette église est portée sur un autel portatif.


Tout s’est déroulé comme avant, avec de longues messes latines et de beaux chants grégoriens. Tu l'as dit.


N'oublions pas que l'église a deux mille ans, mais à l'entrée de l'iconostase se trouve un autel épiscopal, consacré par l'évêque Donato lors de la fête de l'apôtre Pierre. Un escalier latéral mène au Saint des Saints, qui devait être drapé de rideaux dorés ; derrière lui se trouvait le chœur.


Le temple est petit et confortable, un endroit idéal pour chanter et prier. Laissez la lumière briller à travers les fenêtres et les ouvertures à plusieurs vitres.


Il n'y a pas de sacristie dans les églises byzantines. Le prélat s'habille avec les fidèles, et une légère brise souffle dans la salle par la porte ouverte. Le bruissement des feuilles de châtaignier et de bouleau se balançant dans le vent, le bêlement des moutons, le meuglement des chèvres, un fermier conduisant sa charrette au travail et se signant.


Que Sainte Christine de Lensk nous aide.


Y aura-t-il une renaissance miraculeuse du SRI, resté inactif face à une telle crise ?


Notre foi sera-t-elle ravivée, comme c’est le cas en Russie ?


Je veux entendre l'Évangile et les Actes des Apôtres chantés dans ces murs étroits par les voix des diacres (baryton et ténor hors pair).


Tout comme hier à Moscou, le Moldave Konstantin et l'Ukrainien Platonov à la messe de bénédiction de l'eau.


Un rêve que je nourris tandis que mon regard glisse sur la plaine coincée entre deux montagnes où passe l'autoroute.


Au revoir, Paula Lena, à plus tard.

Ich glaube, ich verstehe, dass in diesem Kloster, das eigentlich eine Kathedrale oder ein orthodoxes Heiligtum war, die Messen auf Griechisch abgehalten wurden und der gesamte Kanon nach dem byzantinischen Ritus gesungen wurde, mit Blick auf die Tür der Gaben oder die Ikonostase. Die Gottesdienste fanden im Morgengrauen statt und dauerten länger als heute. Sie dauerten fast zwei Stunden, wie uns das Lied von Mio Cid in Erinnerung ruft.

Die Passion der Heiligen Christina von Lensk


Es ist ein Mysterium und ich weiß nicht, warum mich diese Berge anziehen. Könnte es sein, dass ich in Pola Lena einen Preis für eine Kurzgeschichte „ex aequo“ mit der Tochter von Evaristo Casariego gewonnen habe, einer wunderschönen Brünetten, die der Frau ähnelte, die später, nach so vielen Wendungen, meine Frau wurde? Der Plan der Götter. Ich glaube an das lateinische „fatum“, das deutsche „schiskal“ und das russische „sudba“. Unser Schicksal steht in den Sternen geschrieben, und eine irdische Kraft zog mich in diese nördlichen Länder, das Zentrum des mozarabischen Christentums, dessen Herold und Prediger ich bin. Das letzte Mal stieg ich, bereits als alter Mann und mit einem Stock in der Hand, den Hügel hinauf, der zur Einsiedelei führt; Nehmen wir an, es handelte sich um eine vorromanische Kathedrale, die von einem arianischen Bischof geweiht wurde. Das erste Mal saß ich als 25-Jähriger im Urlaub in meinem neu erworbenen Seat Seiscientos und probierte den besten Apfelwein aus der Apfelweinmühle, der aus den Fässern der Kellerei im Ort Pajares im Departement Tramontana floss. Und hier ist er, nach so vielen Jahren, wie ein Mysterium mitten im Paradies. Ich sang das Nicänische Glaubensbekenntnis auf Latein und die Wächterin, eine sehr freundliche Frau, fragte: „Sind Sie Priester?“


Und MJ sagte: „Ja, aber er ist rausgekommen.“


Die Dame antwortete: „Genau wie ich. Diese Kirche wird auf einem tragbaren Altar getragen.“


Alles war wie zuvor, mit langen lateinischen Messen und schönem gregorianischen Gesang. Du hast es gesagt.


Vergessen wir nicht, dass die Kirche zweitausend Jahre alt ist, aber am Eingang zur Ikonostase befindet sich ein Bischofsaltar, der am Fest des Apostels Petrus von Bischof Donato geweiht wurde. Über eine Seitentreppe gelangt man in das Allerheiligste, das mit goldenen Vorhängen verhangen gewesen sein muss, dahinter befand sich der Chor.


Der Tempel ist klein und gemütlich, ein geeigneter Ort zum Singen und Beten. Lassen Sie das Licht durch mehrscheibige Fenster und Öffnungen scheinen.


In byzantinischen Kirchen gibt es keine Sakristei. Der Prälat kleidet sich gemeinsam mit den Gläubigen, und durch die offene Tür weht eine leichte Landbrise ins Zimmer. Das Rascheln im Wind schwankender Kastanien- und Birkenblätter, das Blöken der Schafe, das Muhen der Ziegen, ein Bauer, der mit seinem Karren zur Arbeit fährt und sich bekreuzigt.


Möge uns die Heilige Christina von Lensk helfen.


Wird es zu einer wundersamen Wiederbelebung des SRI kommen, das angesichts einer solchen Krise inaktiv war?


Wird unser Glaube wiederbelebt, wie es in Russland geschieht?


Ich möchte das Evangelium und die Apostelgeschichte in diesen engen Mauern von den Stimmen der Diakone (unübertroffener Bariton und Tenor) gesungen hören.


So wie gestern in Moskau der Moldawier Konstantin und der Ukrainer Platonow bei der Wassersegnungsmesse.


Ein Traum, den ich hege, während mein Blick über die zwischen zwei Bergen eingeklemmte Ebene gleitet, durch die die Autobahn verläuft.


Auf Wiedersehen, Paula Lena, bis später.

Византийский обряд святой Кристины Ленской, храм близ Парадайса

Страсти по святой Кристине Ленской


Это загадка, и я не знаю, почему меня привлекают эти горы. Может ли быть, что в «Пола Лена» я выиграл приз за короткий рассказ «ex aequo» с дочерью Эваристо Касарьего, великолепной брюнеткой, похожей на женщину, которая впоследствии, после стольких перипетий, стала моей женой? Замысел богов. Я верю в латинское «fatum», немецкое «schiskal» и русское «sudba». Наша судьба предначертана звездами, и земная сила влекла меня к тем северным землям, центру мосарабского христианства, глашатаем и проповедником которого я являюсь. В последний раз, уже стариком и с палкой в ​​руках, я поднялся на холм, ведущий к скиту; Допустим, это был дороманский собор, освященный арианским епископом. В первый раз мне было 25 лет, и во время отпуска я сел в свой недавно купленный Seat Seiscientos, попробовав лучший сидр из сидрового завода, который лился из бочек винодельни в городе Пахарес в департаменте Трамонтана. И вот он, спустя столько лет, словно загадка посреди рая. Я спел Никейский Символ веры на латыни, и сторож, очень добрая женщина, спросила: «Вы священник?»


И МДж сказал: «Да, но он выбрался».


Дама ответила: «Точно как у меня. Эту церковь возят на переносном алтаре».


Все было так же, как и прежде, с длинными латинскими мессами и хорошим григорианским пением. Ты это сказал.


Не будем забывать, что церкви две тысячи лет, но у входа в иконостас находится епископский алтарь, который освятил епископ Донато в праздник апостола Петра. Боковая лестница ведет в святая святых, которая, должно быть, была покрыта золотыми занавесями, а за ней располагался хор.


Храм небольшой и уютный, подходящее место для пения и молитв. Пусть свет проникает через многостворчатые окна и проемы.


В храмах Византии отсутствует ризница. Прелат одевается вместе с верующими, а через открытую дверь в комнату врывается легкий деревенский бриз. Шелест листьев каштанов и берез, колышущихся под ветром, блеяние овец, мычание коз, крестьянин, едущий на работу в своей телеге и крестящийся.


Да поможет нам святая Кристина Ленская.


Совершится ли чудо возрождения SRI, бездействовавшего в условиях такого кризиса?


Возродится ли наша вера, как это происходит в России?


Мне бы хотелось услышать, как в этих узких стенах поют Евангелие и Апостол голосами дьяконов (непревзойденный баритон и тенор).


Как и вчера в Москве молдаванин Константин и украинец Платонов на водосвятной мессе.


Мечта, которую я вынашиваю, пока мой взгляд скользит по равнине, зажатой между двумя горами, где проходит шоссе.


До свидания, Пола Лена, увидимся позже.
