SAD NEWS



Graham Rogers posted this on the Facebook page of The Sting in the Tale:

Many of you will have heard the sad news of Pete Gritton, who died last week in Spain. For many years he performed in the Sting in the Tale festival, New Forest Storytellers, Heads & Tales storytelling club, Jigfoot band and took part in many other events and theatrical performances.
He was a lovely storyteller and talented musician, with a passion for Vikings and Norse sagas, a commanding presence and wonderful sense of humour. His storytelling and music must have left an impression on thousands of people and he will be sadly missed.
However, our loss is Odin's gain and if you gaze up into the moonlit sky this Spring you'll surely hear all those in the great hall of Valhalla, in Asgard, roaring with laughter as Pete tells his tale of Loki and Thor.
