REACHing for Lush

Awareness Campaign raised By Autumn Song:

As a fan of Lush, I have loved the fact that their products are cruelty free. None of the ingredients or final products are tested on animals. Yet, this may all change, due to a new EU legislation. Please visit the page here and help if you can.

Phil Ryder — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 11:06:51 +0000

The names of petition signers are actually being read out inside the summit. Sign below, and tell everyone:

Daily Mail 03/10/09

Archaeologists have discovered Stonehenge's little sister - just a mile from the famous monument.

The prehistoric circle, unearthed in secret over the summer, is one of the most important prehistoric finds in decades.

Researchers have called it 'Bluehenge' after the colour of the 27 giant Welsh stones it once incorporated - but are now missing.

TDN Site Move September 12th: Update

David Orr — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 20:55:44 +0000

The Druid Network Site will be offline for up to 24 hours from Saturday September 12th 00:00 GMT to allow the change of address to be updated throughout the web.

Taking the site offline will ensure that no material is posted to the old site which is then lost as a result of the move.

It is likely to take much less than 24 hours, and as soon as the changed address is available, you will be able to connect to the site and continue as usual.

Thank you in anticipation for your patience.

TDN moving servers 12th September

bish — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 20:06:32 +0000

The Druid Network site is moving servers on Saturday 12th September 2009ce.

Inevitably, as the new DNS propagates through the Internet (non techy mode: while the Internet notices the move and shakes itself down so that browsers look for druidnetwork.org in the right place) there will be some disruption. From the time of the move to renewed stability should take less than half a day, but please bear with us.

Please try not to upload new material to pages if you are a Coordinator. Please try not to post to Gatherings or use the internal messaging systems during the migration. We'll post again once we believe the site is stable. Thank you.

Office Closed Until 12 Aug 2009
