A mile along the road from Hazelgrove is Boleskine House, the former home of Aleister Crowley, the self proclaimed 'most wicked man in the world'. He lived in the house from 1899 -1913 and during that time gained great notoriety as an occultist, alcoholic and prolific drug user. Anyway, I read with interest in a local newspaper that one of Crowley's unpublished poems is going under the hammer with the prospect of going for £2000.  The subject of the poem is in praise of drinking absinthe and is entitled The Green Hour. This is because the drink , hugely popular in the early part of the 20th century with those of a bohemian lifestyle, was often drunk between the hours of 5pm -7pm ! Popularily believed to encourage creativity, absinthe was nicknamed ' the grren fairy' or 'green muse'.
