New Assistant Druid

It being Solsticetide, we've been having the traditional round of druidical investitures.
As you know,  the tradition of the Beaker Conneksion is to give the candidates each year no idea of which community they will end up at. Indeed, neither they nor the leaders of their new communities know where they will be earning their sickles, until after the selection process, the night after investiture.


Having been wise enough during the selection process to have hung onto a pair of aces, I am pleased this evening to introduce our new Assistant Druid, Charlotte. Charlotte - or "Charlii", as she likes to be known - comes to us with a first in Theology from Quisling College, Cambridge. Which will be of invaluable use during her three-year training period with us. Especially as she is reflecting theologically on the formational qualities of banging the holes out of doilies.


We all enjoyed Charlii's first sermon, on "Interpersonal Quantum Dynamics in the Context of the Peacable Kingdom" this evening. And it's that kind of heavyweight theological reasoning that I believe will attract new, vibrant pilgrims to our Community. And not the fact that, in Young Keith's rather vulgar phrase, she is "a bit of alright".
