North Essex: Black magic in churchyard?
7:00am Friday 4th July 2008
BLACK witches are said to be congregating near a ruined church and having sex in bushes.
Residents are concerned after a growing number of camper vans have been seen parking overnight near the ruined St Peter's Church, in Ford Lane, Alresford.
At a parish council meeting, the campers were branded witches, and accused of hocus pocus activities.

there i was filling out this form when its security question asks you-
put in what you see...
see what, the rustling in the bushes,
or the illegal camp site thats cheap to park overnight..
If this story turns out to any sort of truth in it whatsoever, you will have thousends upon thousends of the dogging brigade down here for the nigh time entertainments.
This could really put Arlesfords parish council on the map.
Huge fields taken over for camping, dogging watching or whatever is happening.
Or is it just someones just a bit "eager" with what they actually saw one night - perhaps a bit of alfresco night time "enjoyment" in the bushes....
It DOES get hot in a camper van in this heat you know....lol.

How do we know its true, how do we know even if its normal hetrosexual sex and not the other sort, goddnes gracious, the thought of it then becomes almost too much to think about, all this, in a church gardens....
I will have to go and inspect this terrible thing....
film it even, more so if its which witch is which i ask, black ones too..
in the dark, can they be seen i wonder..
How do they arrive there, i`ve heard of cows jumping over the moon, but witches must arrive on broom sticks, complete with pointed hats and flowing gowns...
I will complain elsewhere....

I take great offense to yet another vicar who cannot accept people of another religion and live in harmony with the environment like religious people are surpose to do.
A sound in the bushes - hows about foxes? or the night wind? and for the records they were probably travellers or just people having fun so whats the problem??

Been to this church a few times in my youth.
Its just a place youngsters go to have a sh@g.
Places I have done it here:-
1) In the car park over the bonnet of my car
2) Inside the church where the alter would have been
3) On a table grave at the front
4) On the grass above a grave at the back
5) More than a few times in the fields at the back
I would like to state I am not a witch or practioner of black magic.
But I will own up to being a sexual deviant.
