Welcome to the Mistletoe blogs - Jonathan Briggs' online diaries of mistletoe matters. Most relate to November and December - but there is some input throughout the year.  

For the 2006/7 there will be a new Mistletoe Travels Blog, hosted by tyepad - and an accompanying Mistletoe Travels Podcast. These will be themed by week - the initial plan is outlined below - though is subject to change!

Weeks beginning: 

• 31st October        The Start of the Season
• 6th November      Mistletoe harvesting
• 13th November    Mistletoe art nouveau glassware etc
• 20th November    Mistletoe medicines and cosmetics
• 27th November    Threats to mistletoe and mistletoe trade
• 4th December      Druids and mistletoe beliefs #1
• 11th December    Mistletoe conservation in London
• 18th December    Some mistletoe people
• 25th December    Christmas and mistletoe beliefs #2
• 1st January         New Year and mistletoe beliefs #3

All to be confirmed - current plans suggest a series of blogs for each theme - based on travels and mistletoe-related activity in various places - plus, time-permitting, a podcast summary for each theme.

The 2005/6 and 2004 Blogs are hosted by Blogger.com, the earlier 2003 Blog is hosted within the older version of this site.
