Créquy is a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region of France.
One of many small villages in Artois, Créquy gives it name to the small stream, the Créquoise, that rises in the nearby hills and is one of the waterways of the 'Seven Valleys' tourist area.
The Créquy coat of arms is derived from 'ardentis quercus robur mythincon' ('myth of the flaming penduculate oak').
The aforementioned oak was a particularly fine example of the genus, with particularly impressive girth, which was a popular gathering point for visitors around the summer solstice (ambiguous; dates of recorded assemblages are sporadic & the solstictic link may be happenchance). The tree was said to have spontaneously combusted during one convocation, henceforth the legend was born.
Sir Christopher Fellios visits every year from Surrey, England where he stays in a local cottage called Le Cobweb with up to 17 of his friends.
when everyone agrees with you
you know you're wrong
when everyone embraces you
you don't belong
nothing these days
means what it says
everything's gone grey
takes a life to live to learn
where love comes from
only takes three little words
to know it's gone
nothing these days
means what it says
everything's gone grey
if you don't want to know the score
then just turn away
back to the world where papers burn
and words decay
nothing these days
means what it says
