October, and we're back!

Hello my freaky darlings.

I had pretty much given up on this blog because I thought nobody read it.  Turns out I was wrong.  At least two people read it, and that's enough for me.  So, we're back on the blogosphere.  Hurrah!

There's only a little to advertise, though.

The next two moots will be 13th November and 11th December.
The November moot will be our annual storytelling night.  Please bring along a story.  Any kind of story will do.  It could be a favourite fairy tale, a deep and mysterious Lovecraftian horror, a silly episode from your life.  Two things to take note of - please no more than ten minutes in the telling of your story, so we've all got time, AND there will be children taking part so graphic sex and violence would be best avoided.  At least until they've gone to bed.

In December we'll be having our annual quiz night.  Details to follow.

Finally, this year's Samhain fancy dress party will be on Saturday 27th October from 8pm onwards at Radcliffe Moot Towers.  The theme will be Superheroes and Supervillains.  We're also thinking of setting up a little shrine in a quiet corner for anyone who wants to honour any loved ones who have left us this year.

As requested, here's a list of the books that were reviewed at the October Moot, so if there's anything that caught your fancy you can look it up and beg, borrow, or order one from amazon :-)

Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance by Robert M Pirsig
Gluten Free Baking by Phil Vickery (that's going on my wish list!)
Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy
Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb
Silent Spring by Rachel Carson
Growing Sustainability by Dave of Darlington
And, we know it's not a book, Tooth & Claw (Dr Who episode) and a comparison of the treatment of the werewolf in the story with traditional werewolf mythology

That's it!  See you at Samhain.
