February Announcements

Hi everybody (Hi Dr Seán), and thanks to everyone who came to last night's fascinating and informative talk by Bridget on multiple intelligences. Do we feel thoroughly psychoanalysed or what?

The Next Two Moots

The March and April Moots will be on the 8th and 12th respectively, but I'm not going to tell you what we're doing because I don't know!
We need some help, folks. If you want offer to do a Moot, or request or suggest something specific now's the time. Don't be shy now!

Coming Up

Manchester Museum are hosting a photographic exhibition called Stonehenge: Henge Diggers featuring pictures from the 2008 excavation. It runs from 19th Feb right through to 17 July.

Also at Manchester Museum there's an event for the kids during half-term called The Ancients, all about cave painting and designing stone circles. That's on Friday 25th between 11 and 12.

Do any of you ladies want to try your hand (foot?) at Rapper dancing? (Click here to see a video) The fabulous Sisters In Arms all-female Rapper group will be holding a one evening workshop at Islington Mill in Salford from 7-10 pm on Thursday 24th Feb.
Contact Jen for more info: sistersinarms@virginmedia.com

On Saturday 5th March Shared Earth in Preston are holding a Harry Potter Party from 7pm at the Grasshoppers Rugby Club. This is a fundraiser for Pagancon and costs £15 a head with all your food and entertainment laid on. Tasha's your contact for this one: ferndrake@hotmail.com

Also on the same evening our friend Mel is having a birthday meal at the Chinese Buffet in Bolton from 7pm. We like Mel.

There's another of those free Manchester Museum lectures happening on 23rd March. It's called The Artificial Ape: Technology, Evolution and Humanity. Unfortunately it's on at 3 in the afternoon, but if you're not working or getting the kids from school or something it sounds really good.

Finally, don't forget about Scratching Fanny of Cock Lane on Monday 7th March. It's a talk by Bolton Historical Society at the Parish Hall on Silverwell St from 7:30pm until 9:30.

Camps

Finally, finally, we've got the general dates of some of this year's camps. Karen of Shared Earth has most of the info but what we know so far is:

Thornborough Henge - Bealtaine, but final arrangements have yet to be made.
Pendle Witch Camp - 17 to 20 June
Oakleaf Lammas Camp in Ripon - 29 to 31 July
Woodspirit at Silverdale - 5 to 7 August
The Mercian Gathering at Nuneaton - 2 to 4 September.


Th, th, th, that's all folks.

Love,
Seán
