Easter, so you might be expecting pictures of eggs. Or bunnies. Or chocolate.
Pah. I laugh in the face of expectation. I know how Christianity has usurped the older, pagan, traditions, subverting them for its own needs, but what to post ?
Fate sticks its hand in. Scanning some slides over coffee this morning, I happened across this slide, and immediately it looked familiar. I couldn't place it, but I KNEW that I'd seen that church somewhere. A check of the slide mount showed just the date (Sept 1971) and a handwritten "Anwoth." Not much of a help.
....Oh Wow... Wikipedia shows a little hint regarding Anwoth. Yes, it's the church that Sergeant Howie visits in The Wicker Man. More location info here. I strongly urge you to go and watch this movie. (Make sure it's the Edward Woodward one...the Nic Cage version looks awful.)
Serendipity. Christianity and pagans. Gotta love it.
