Further to yesterday's post relating to my contacting the local media, The Rugby Observer have offered us an interview on Paganism, with a mention of the moot by way of promotion.
The interview is to take place by email and I am due to receive these questions at some point tomorrow.
The reporter is happy for the questions to be answered by me or by a group of us.
If you are interested in taking part please reply to this thread. Reply as quickly as possible as I do not yet know what the deadline for submitting the answers will be...

I should also add, as a personal preference, I would prefer Pagan's who are "out of the broom closet" (I hate that term).
I think using pseudonyms or initials etc in the local paper will be counter productive as some people have a negative perception of Paganism.
I appreciate people tend to do this kind of thing to protect relatives who would be upset to learn their grandson isn't Christian etc.
I feel its impotant to put forward an honest, open expression of our beliefs, that leaves no room for mis-placed accusations of hiding something. After all this form of publicity will reach a lot more non-Pagans than it will Pagans.

This is good news indeed! I'm more than happy to help if you like. Or maybe a joint effort at the next moot??
