this has been sent to to various Avebury websites after solstice

" Tilia:
Was at Avebury yesterday for solstice celebration - would like to ask who the objectionable (and rather grubby) Druid was who swore and carried on at the wiccans who had just had a circle. I asked the NT woman, and she said he was the self appointed keeper of the stones....self appointed? That means without any authority but his own? Right. He was rude and not a good advertisment for Druidry or Avebury. The NT should be aware."

Are you saying that the NT will only allow people to camp as long as they listen to terrys rantings?
There are other pagans groups who want nothing to do with this bloke but who come to Avebury for their own spiritual purposes.
Having to attend a compulsory ceremony is outrageous!


There is no compulsory attendance for the Druidic ceremony required by visitors to Avebury. The discussion with the Wiccans is over their desire to use swords in open and public ritual, which could ultimately lead to negative interest from the media. All that is asked is that this is taken into consideration when these props are used, so that free and open use of the site can be assured, for everyone (whatever their beliefs), into the future.


Yep..

Thanks for that. Sian informed of this a little earlier

The confusion over this issue started with a Post by Chance .

But it's now resolved.
