Blog Migration

A new consolidated mistletoe blog, with all the versions going back to 2004 (there was some in 2003 too, but that's in the wrong format) are being combined for 2010 onwards at;

2008/9 update

Hi,

If you've dropped by looking for news about mistletoe for the 2008/09 mistletoe season you're in the wrong place.

I'm using the typepad site again this season (don't know why - I have to pay them and Blogger is free, so maybe I'll return here soon). But for now point your browser thisaway for mistletoe news...

Mistletoe Travel Plans (provisional...)

The 2006/7 mistletoe blog is at http://mistletoe.typepad.com/.

This blogger site is being set up to mirror the typepad site - but I haven't transferred much of the material yet - so please visit the typepad site to read the blog.

Initial transferred material below:

Ok, here's the plan:

Mistletoe Travels 2006 will be a new and better multimedia product, developing the thmes of the 2003/4/5 Mistletoe Diaries. There will be weekly themes, and podcast back-up.

Provisional themes and timings are;

  • week beginning:

  • 31st October The Start of the Season
  • 6th November Mistletoe harvesting
  • 13th November Mistletoe art nouveau glassware etc
  • 20th November Mistletoe medicines and cosmetics
  • 27th November Threats to mistletoe and mistletoe trade
  • 4th December Druids and mistletoe beliefs #1
  • 11th December Mistletoe conservation in London
  • 18th December Some mistletoe people
  • 25th December Christmas and mistletoe beliefs #2
  • 1st January New Year and mistletoe beliefs #3

All to be confirmed - current plans suggest a series of blogs for each theme - based on travels and mistletoe-related activity in various places - plus, time-permitting, a podcast summary for each theme.



More news on all this soon...
