Sithney
Sithney (Cornish: Merthersydhni) is a village and civil parish in west Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. Sithney is north of Porthleven. The population at the 2011 census was 836.
It is named after Saint Sithney, the patron saint of the parish church. Saint Sithney was one of the band of Irish missionaries who came to west Cornwall. William Worcester recorded in 1478 that the body of the saint lay within the church.
History
Church
In 1230 the church belonged to the Antrenon family who attached to it a charge of 4 shillings yearly to the priory of St Germans. In 1267 it was appropriated to Glasney College; the last rector ceded his benefice to the college in 1270.
The parish church is of Norman foundation but the present structure is more or less of the 15th century. The old Norman font of this church was removed to the new church of Carnmenellis (since demolished). A 13th century coffin slab was brought to the church from St Johns. In the churchyard is a monument to John Oliver, 1741. John Rogers, the landowner, mineral lord and biblical scholar, is buried here.

Seethin
by: RvivrI got a feeling
And it’s something that I just can’t name
I’m always looking for something else to blame
I’m always seethin
About something that I can’t control
Like a cast iron left on a hot stove
It’s burning!!!
Stuck in my head
Like a nail split my skull open
Like the oil at the bottom of the ocean
It just won’t go away
Cry if it hurts
Salt tears like the tide that flows in
Look around I’m drowning in the ocean
Where are all my friends?
Whoa-oh!
”the skies not falling yer just growing”
Never slowing and it’s a long way down
So come on come on no one likes a whiny babe
Screaming so loud you can’t hear the sound when it goes away
Lie in the dirt
Mud, blood and bones just blend in
A rotten bag of dreams decomposing
Nothing to defend!
Whoa-oh!
