January Announcements

A day late but at least it's better than last month when I forgot to write anything at all. Ooops!

Anyway ...

The Next Few Moots

Next month, Feb 14th rather appropriately, we'll be having a talk from Rainy City Roller Derby Girl, Emma on "Pink Paganism. A path for the not-straight". Asking people if they like musicals, standard lamps or Chardonnay will be banned!

After that our friend Bridget has offered some occult psychogeography in the form of a talk on earth zodiacs and search for the Radcliffe Zodiac. That will be on 13th March.

We're a bit light for April and May, so if you fancy a request or to make an offer, you know where we are. In June, I'm going to be taking over with a little field trip for some local history and mythology. It will involve meeting up at a pub rather than Radcliffe Moot Towers, details coming soon.

Coming Up

If you hadn't realised the Wassail is on this coming Saturday (the 14th January), where have you been? 8pm onwards folks. Any donations of food and drink to share (veggie/vegan please) or firewood to burn will be gladly accepted. Don't forget your hat!

If anyone fancies blowing their hangover away, a group of nice folks have organised a walk around Bromley Cross (where the little stone circle is), Jumbles and Edgeworth. Meet at Bolton train station 11am and finish eventually at the Strawberry Duck.

The Bolton Moot will be happening at The Olde Man & Scythe on Tuesday 17th, 8pm onwards. We think it's just a social this time

We're taking a trip to Ara on Friday 27th of this month to celebrate a certain Dionysian's birthday (How old? Ye gods!). Anybody who fancies joining us will be most welcome and probably cuddled by a drunkard.

Marsden ImBolg Fire Festival, despite worries to the contrary, will be happening again this year. It's not well advertised on the web so no link, but the procession starts at 7pm from the goods yard behind the railway station. Heck, just follow the crowds, it'll all work out.
Could somebody order nice weather this time? We nearly drowned last year.

We've also booked the date for our Bealtaine Wicker Man party. It'll be Saturday 28th April (which doesn't clash with Thornborough Henge this year, so yay!). I know we're jumping the gun a bit but we're arranging around a visit from some lovely friends from California.

Finally

We've recently been told about the Pagan Blog Project. They are looking for contributors to write a few lines every Friday on a subject starting with a given letter. Give it a look, it could prove interesting.

And that's it. Hope to see you at the Wassail.
Keep warm and well!

Love,
Seán
