1:13.6	Thank you. Hello and welcome to another edition of Druidcast. I'm your host Dave the Bard and the Druid podcast is brought to you by the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids. We've got a packed show for you this month with some great live performances by members of the Order from our recent summer gathering at Glastonbury Town Hall.
2:02.5	Each year we have two of these gatherings near to the solstices, where we hold grove rituals,
