Solstice Night

The Winter Solstice and all us pagan Gods are partying it up on our big night of the winter festival. We don't like to leave you out of course so can we suggest a celebration of Santa Lucia as they do in Sweden (very pagan place - we like Sweden) People walk around the streets carrying lanterns and singing seasonal songs and the folk who have stayed at home bring out cups of glugg or mulled wine. Its quite a night. Another Solstice tradition is telling ghost stories. You will find a good one, written in the style of Scotsman William McGonagall, the worst poet ever published in the English language by following this link The Headless Horseman Don't be put off by the fact that McGonagall is bad. Sometyimes bad is very good and the writer responsible for this pastiche has a nice touch with humour. SOLSTICE SOLICITATIONS TO YOU ALL (AND A MERRY CHRISTMAS IF YOU ARE THAT WAY INCLINED)
