    Not you anyway! Real pagans know the score - and the important dates. :cool:

    Remember, never stare at the big bright thing in the sky.... unless it's the moon. :eek: :p

    We must have different clergymen! :D What if it's cloudy for a solstice, does it not negate the whole idea of a hike, or is it just that it's the longest day of the year, so more walking time?

    **** that minimum sponsorship bollocks. It's a load, and I'll avoid any of these events with such provisos attached.

    You doing it? Between 2 minds, it's a hike or clubbing in Cork! Think I'll wait for forecasts nearer weekend.

    dont think so, It's too far of a drive for me and would need to take time off work!! If i had of thought about it earlier i would have better organised. Maybe the December one!
