About are my top ten highlights of the day:1) Representatives UP Following SO Hang around FRIENDS: Everyplace I went I bumped appearing in ancestors I knew. A number of were friends I knew were separation and who I had intentional to collect up with, others were ancestors I hadn't seen for ages. Any person looked blithe and seemed to be having a full of meaning time. 2) TALKS: Witchfest yet has a full of meaning assortment of speakers writing on a huge marker of witchcraft-related subjects. I heard Melissa Harrington deliberate on Wicca and Sexuality, Vivianne and Chris Crowley assign an illustrated lecture on Cauldron, Grail and Sacred Quest, and Prof. Ronald Hutton deliberate about The Snow-white Mysteries. 3) WORKSHOPS: Stage were one workshops check by way of the day, as well as didgeridoos playing and wand making.

All you aspiration to pay for on top of the trade mark charge is your cuisine, brew and travel - oh and doesn't matter what you buy in the publicize of course.10) LOCATION: I know heaps of ancestors travel a desire way to get to Witchfest, at Fairfield Halls in Croydon, but I only had to hop on a bus. Brilliant!My only regret? The fact that I couldn't get to all the things I required to while at hand are yet one summit, workshops or bands playing at the actual time.
