I thoroughly enjoyed this podcast. I did not know of any of the eight items mentioned. I went on to the Celtic Thoughts website to try to purchase the book, without success. Is the book available for purchase? Thank you.
I’ve let Brighid know, and hopefully she’ll reply here with more information for you, Lynne.
Hi Lynne,
Thanks for listening to my podcast. I don’t know why you were not able to purchase the book but I will gladlly gift you a copy for Free from Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk if you like. I would need an email address to send that to. Thanks again for visiting.
Warmly, Brighid
