More stuff happening over the Weekend

It really is going to be busy next weekend!
Julia is going to be in the Buttermarket on Sunday with her Fairtrade bags, along with stalls selling bric-a-brack, books, cards, aloe vera products and so on - all in aid of Clyro Village Hall. That's on from 10am to 4pm.
Kilvert's are having a mini Beer Festival, with 5 real ales plus ciders and perries.
Rob Soldat is telling stories about St Andrew at the Library on Saturday morning.
The Globe has a big sign up saying 'crunch art for the new era' - as well as all the events, they seem to be having an art festival.
And Spellbound, under Nepal Bazaar, are playing host to a visiting white witch. Tylluan Penry will be reading runes and signing copies of her new book 'Seeking the Green'. The little handout says she's 'Witchfest International's Tylluan Penry'. I've been to a couple of Witchfest events as a re-enactor (pity they didn't have any weather working witches along for the second one - the rain was appalling). The people were mostly very nice (an exception being the woman who drank most of a bottle of mead that wasn't hers as she sat by our campfire) - and it was the one show where we knew we didn't have to explain what widdershins was when we were demonstrating how the quern stone works. It turns anti-clockwise, or widdershins, to grind the corn.

Thank you for mentioning me on your blog which, incidentally, I often visit along with the real life Hay on Wye which is beginning to feel like my spiritual home!

I actually had an aunt who was into weather magic, but alas it was something she kept very much to herself and never passed on. There are definitely times when it would come in very handy!
