Hi Andy, just finished Shroom (the book ha ha) read your book and have several questions.
ReplyDeletePlease email me at Julian@5hplus.com and I'll go into more detail. Thanks, I learned a lot.

Hi Andy, I'm a big fan of Shroom and Telling the Bees (and just read a great article of yours about fairy beliefs in the eco movement), and had a quick question for you if you don't mind.
ReplyDeleteI'm planning a trip to England sometime in the next couple years, and I either wanted to go in September and see the Abbots Bromley Horn Dance (which I've been fascinated with for many years), or go in May and see some May Day morris dancing and such somewhere. Any personal recommendation on which would be the most rewarding? I may only get there once, and want to make it count. Also, if you have any other suggestions for a folklore buff, I'd be interested. Thank you!
