This week I take a trip to Shrewsbury in the Welsh Marches via The Wrekin — the landscape that inspired Tolkien's Middle Earth and there I talk about the Horned God and the origins of the Arthurian legends. I visit Eaton... the "real" Hogwarts for my birthday and I discuss the life of Toni Morrison (RIP). Later I discover the magical power of True Names and study the three types of myth. My fabulous creature of the week is: the Swan Maiden. My wildflower of the week is: Chili Pepper
