Most of what I have read on the ancient cycles are from Ireland, the Tain Bo Cooligh, and some Scottish writings on my clans patron goddess, Scathach, the Queen of Shadows who trained cuchulain in the warrior arts. She was an historic person. Here castle’s remnants still exist on the Isle of Skye, ,called Dunscaith. I really enjoy reading the Norse mythology, but my reading of it has been spotty.

If you get a chance to see the movie LOKI, its very well done.I am sure you would enjoy it immensely from what you have said.

Cuchulain...now there’s an interesting story. He had powers that remind me of Thor, the thundergod.

Yes, I did look at the video. Bunch of teenagers sitting there at night in the dark with a camera...somebody screams and everything goes blank.

Methinks they knew what was about to happen. Some poor old fellow dressed in a sack, probably comes out every night at the same time.
