Yeah, looks good goff. RH is talking on the History of Megaliths, and Gerald on Callanish, the Moon & the Sleeping Beauty. Who's John Billingsley? His talk looks interesting too.

Not sure if The Druids is out yet CW.
By way of an update, I've had my copy for a couple of weeks now and am making my way through it.
Fascinating stuff. So far it is more a history of what people have said about Druidry in the last 1000 years, rather than trying to second guess what they were like originally from the few sources available.
Good to know the Welsh have no more claim on Druidry than anyone else :-)

Thanks for that.
A very good interview which confirms a lot of what he seemed to be doing in the book.
