Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

No Claire Morrow's I take it? That would just be too weird.

Ah well, there are only 135 of us in the UK (apparently)... :P

Never met another and I wouldn't care to - it'd be like bumping into someone with the same dress on :lol:

It's just a mega pic of Avebury (where i live) that was taken by a friend of mine a few autumns ago. Just came across it as I was trawling through the computer looking for stuff (as you do).
Really dramatic picture don't you think?

It's the largest circle in England. Thought to date from around 2500 BC, it is a large earthwork bank and ditch surrounding a circle of standing stones.

The bank is around 450 yards in diameter, and its ditch was originally 30 feet deep

The standing stones comprise an outer circle and two inner circles, known as the northern and southern circles. These inner circles are believed to have been built first, with the outer circle and the surrounding earthworks being added around a century later.

The outer circle has four "gates" at roughly north, south, east and west. From two of these gates ran two great avenues. Only the West Kennett Avenue from the southern gate survives, and a small section of it has been reconstructed with a border of standing stones to show what it looked like. Originally this avenue led to the Sanctuary on Overton Hill.

Or so they reckon - personally I think God planted them to give the pagans something to dance around :lol:

You live in Avebury? Cool. I have some photos (proper chemicals-on-paper photos, not digital) of the Avebury stones somewhere.

Just next to the Henry Moore Institute, I think? I could be getting confused, I really just did a whirlwind tour of the city centre before getting the train back (still took over 50 photos though!).

That's impressive! I took fewer photos than that (with my damned useless mobile phone cam) during my entire stay in Blighty! :roll:

And indeed right next door to the Henry Moore Institute. :D Lovely peaceful place to pass a summers afternoon, if you can bear the traffic fumes whilst watching the (usually) elder citizens pit their wits against eac hother.

Speaking of Hamburg, Reece is off in 2 weeks for his 2nd trip in 12 months, with skoo. Last time he came back with more pics of his female German students than the city, I expect much the same this time round. 8) :roll: :notworthy:
