As posted on the CDO site just now:
"Apologies for the lack of action on this site, this is due to ill health and a lot of quiet background stuff going on.
My feelings on our group is that the phrase "Druid Order" is too exclusive and in a sense precludes many Pagans from being a part of what I envisaged us to be, a collective of like-minded Pagan folk who wish to improve the world around us, as members of our local communities. It is therefore my pleasure to let you know that in the next few months we hope to have the site updated with our new identity - the Cumbrian Pagan Collective.
Bright Blessings to one and all, and may your Gods smile upon you and yours"
Although the CDO will still be around as its own entity, as a small group within the collective, I hope that we can work together with the many groups in Cumbria. Instead of the whole public ceremony thang going on, we've found that personal, private ceremonies in a place special to us feels so much 'right'.
I'll be looking for people who are willing to help work on the website with me, posting reports and suchlike, to tell us what groups are where and doing what, and perhaps seeking out new members for themselves.

oopth my bad...
I've just rewritten the announcement on the cdo site (whether it's saved or not is another question...dongles are rubbish in non-3g areas...). It should now read as:
"Apologies for the lack of action on this site, this is due to ill health and a lot of quiet background stuff going on. Slight change to the previous announcement...
The Cumbrian Druid Order has continued as a small group, holding private and public ritual on the sacred days - many, many thanks to Skippy who has stepped up whilst I've been having health problems - but we'd like to see something bigger for Cumbrian Pagan groups, some form of group, federation, whatever name you choose. Something informal, with all branches of paganism working together towards a common goal. If anyone out there is interested, please get in touch!"
which is much nearer the mark to my intention than the previous post. So, if any of you out there are part of a pagan group/order/coven etc. and want to work with other groups - not in a magickal sense, although there's no need for it not to work out that way, let us know and together we might get something going.

Craig says "WOOHOO!" and of course he can make up some pagany types ones (I been designing pagany stamps and stuff for him since last year)
I'll get a design and stuff drawn up for you and bring it in to stick on the wall (or off the wall...)

Great! I'd love to buy some pagany ones myself ^^ Hope you're popping in this week, we'd love to come to the solstice this year but as we've never done it before we're not sure how to go about it
Edit: sold 3 of your cards Craig, the greenman, the moon and one of the fathers day cards are gone ^^
