This time of year, I always try to reassess whether my living with a witch is a good thing, or not.
So far, so good.
Happy celebration, however you celebrate or spell it! [My wife spells it Samhain]

Joe, your wife spells it correctly! As you know from my many previous posts I can't spell worth a damn in either Gaelic or English. I also intended to send it below the line.

Or, put another way, Happy New Year to all my fellow Celts!

All the best,

Mick

Same here! I've just learned why Chesire man, Bryn Pugh calls it "Hollandside." Quite interesting. This year, my grandson is very envious of his grandpa having his birthday on Halloween. His is two weeks later, but he'd really like to move it.

Love, light and laughter to all - for the season and for the New Year.

Also, if in England - take care for the warnings are that Herne will ride with his wild hunt tonight. If travelling watch out for debris and falling trees.

Take care for the veil is thin
And the spirit seeks refuge within
For moon lights the way
       as the hunt seeks it's prey
And the unwary are lost in the din


May the dark of the night lead to the bright light of the dawn....

My maternal grandmother's birthday was on October 31. Pity she was such a fundamentalist Christian- I never knew if she considered the date significant.

I'm playing with the ceilidh band at a wedding tonight. It's at an old Sussex farm called "Pangdean" - a farm now used as a wedding venue and meetings centre. The weddings are held in a huge old tithe barn, and it'll be interesting to see if the spirit of this evening permeates the occasion...
