Cauldron FM becomes a reality

Merrie Meet on this cool November morn.

I am aware that some of our friends are living in conditions that can simply be described as "arctic" and that snow is continually falling making leaving the house a trial in its own right.

Here on the atlantic coast of North Devon we are getting very cold temperatures and biting winds but seeing very little of the snow at the moment. However that said the freezing temperatures did prevent me from visiting Exeter at the weekend on the grounds of common sense.

So bringing the subject of the weather to a close it simply remains for me to say if you do have to go out make sure that you are prepared for possibilty of getting stuck, take warm clothing, boots, blankets etc. and if possible something to eat and drink (preferably warm - one of those little camping stoves can come in extremely useful)

Now to the main point - which is a point of information

Cauldron FM has now become a reality we began our podcast broadcasts last week with a couple of programmes, one a Musing by yours truly and the second a brief poem called I Am A Witch that some of you may have read in an earlier Musing.

Cauldron FM

We are starting this small but plan to build it into a full time internet radio station and it is not beyond the realms of possibility that before too much longer we could be seeing a dedicated Cauldron TV channel, although it is just an embryonic idea at present.

Back to the podcast service now - tonight I will be recording the new Musing programme on the subject of Yule, there will also be some new music taken from Andrew Prince's latest album "Band of Rain". Andrew (a schoolfriend of mine) and I lost contact since we left school but we regained that contact in recent weeks and it seems that we have followed very similar paths through life.

We are both musicians, Andrew played with Sham 69 for a time and I have worked with up and coming bands both as a member and as a session player. We are both friends with Visionary Artist Peter Pracownik although neither of us knew that the other was, and we are both therapist - Andrew a music therapist and myself a Personal Development consultant.

The new presenter Wayne is working furiously to prepare his new shows and the debut broadcast date will be announced as soon as I know it.

I am talking to Avalon Whisperer about joining our team on a regular basis and there are lots of other exciting things on the horizon.

However, we need more presenters (especially for the Children's show that I want to do) and advertisers - we can offer extremely good rates for small to medium sized businesses who take a regular advertising slot or who simply would like to sponsor a show with us.

Finally any dates for our "What's Going On" spot will be much appreciated

remember we are going out on the internet so location need not be seen as a barrier.

Until the next time

May the Goddess protect and keep you safe

Love and light to all and

Blessed Be

Birth of a new radio station is imminent

Merrie Meet one and all

The purpose of this post is to announce the impending birth of

Cauldron FM - where Magic, New Age and Pop cultures connect.

We are currently looking for presenters, advertisers, roving reporters and will glady take input of news or events stories that will be of interest to our listeners.

The service will begin as a series of podcasts (short shows) to test the water and then on or about 7th March 2011 the internet radio station will go "live".

Hope you will enjoy the service and look forward to chatting to you soon.

Until them

Love and light and Blessed Be

Merlin
