very much enjoying this wonderful tome. I’ve been stuck on trains all day trying to get home to visit my family near Whitby, my head is a wash with ghosts of crumbling Roman leaders, both brave and cowardly Britons and the looming menace of the invading saxons (only just read up to about 430)

putting on this day long show in Manchester to celebrate the Winter Solstice. 6 live acts announced, one suprise set to be announced and 3 DJs. Should be a banger.

4am reading, so far I am quite dubious and almost disgusted by this book but still extremely curious about where on earth they’re going with all this
This was written at the height of the ‘satanic panic’ in America and must have been extremely (if not intentionally) shocking at the time
