Accused of racism

I don't see why we can't have warlocks too. They could fly on jet washers or spades although I'm not sure how they feel about wearing the floaty dresses and pearls

We need vets to look after the familiars.

Isn't that one area where "witches are doin it for themselves" Galen?

You can have either male or female witches. I don't think you would want warlocks, in or out of floaty dresses or pearls vampirequeen

I thought a warlock was a male witch. Has the word gone out of use or does it mean something else?

What would the men like to wear?

I think it means a bad witch - possibly thrown out of his coven. vampirequeen. However, warlocks have never come up in the Merrily Watkins series - my source of knowledge for paganism and witchcraft - so I could be wrong

Have we have any men wanting to join yet?

I don't think any have applied. Maybe they're waiting to find out what rituals we might like to take part in.

Perhaps none of us has been accused of racism; sexism, ageism, little Englanderism, xenophobia, nimbyism, - perhaps, probably, almost certainly - but not the one that matters for this coven?

I have always seen myself as a potential warlock rather than a witch, and I'm game for any decent (or are we contemplating the opposite?) ritual.

I thought a warlock was the same as a wizard. In Tam o' Shanter Burns refers to 'Witches and warlocks in a dance...' Are there any warlocks in the Harry Potter series? I know Harry and the lads are wizards. Is Hermione a witch? Perhaps we could have a web chat with JK Rowling! I'm a Scottish witch and I'm sure there must be some interesting herbs growing in the jungle that I call my garden and my familiar has to be a large ginger cat. My broomstick is turbo charged and has tartan cushions.

Wizard would nicely.

Correction: Wizard would do nicely.

Oh please let's not make all our rituals decent.

I've just been accused of being racist by my DS. I'm watching the men's semi-final of Wimbledon and he said that sport is racist because we support someone from a certain country and don't want someone else to win from another country. Is this racism or far too PC in his thinking?

I still want Andy to win though over Roger.

That is just silly overthinking.

It's not racist. I suppose, at a push, it could be nationalist but hell it's only two men batting a ball over a bit of netting.

Welcome to the coven, rubylady.

So when England play Australia for the ashes it's racist to want England to win, and when it comes to the World Cup - there's a lot of racists in the world

It's not even worth discussing.

It's a PC too far.

I think he is looking for an "ist" that you will call him for his remarks rubylady so that he can join the coven

He has apologised. What coven?

We're forming a coven for people who have falsely been accused of racism

Someone once suggested that I was being racist - I won't go into the details - but subsequently apologised.

I was called a racist by someone I didn't invite to a BBQ, this despite at least 10 of those invited being black or mixed race. I told him the reason I hadn't invited him was nothing to do with his colour but because of his "profession" - he was a pimp!

I thought we had got to the point of just forming a coven .

How many of us are their now? At this rate we'll have to have two covens
