Miscellania

First frost of the year this morning; 0.9°C as I was leaving the house. Warm socks and a brisk walk over to Lansdowne Road - excellent start.

Big Easy Players, no game tonight. Watch this space for further info on the game.

I have a tendency to read bits of a random book while I'm waiting for the computer to catch up or load stuff. 10-second burst of reading over a few evenings add up quickly, so I figured I'd use this resource on non-fic, and started Ronald Hutton's Triumph of the Moon last night (a book every pagan should read - I've read it before, but it was a while ago). This morning, Metro quoted him in an article on vampires. Synchronicity FTW!

Brillant book would be nice if he did a follow up on the changes in paganism, over the last while. Definatly an easier reaf then the golden bough or the white Goddess.

Almost a good thing I'm up to my eyes in the house. Ah well, grutok is working until 9pm tonight 8(

His latest one ('Witches, Druids and King Arthur') includes some of this, particularly on the druid side. I know nothing about druidry aside from the OBOD version, so I found it very interesting.
He's also a lot more fact based than either the Golden Bough or the White Goddess, which personally I like.

That helps :)
