My final one before departing Northern Climes & the last one was a belter!
Might bring along some more finds for ppl to play with...

I've been asking if I can come and do a presentation on Thornborough. Paul's not responded and I'm not sure if I'm using the right email address. By the look of things the application is going to be published on Friday so it would be very timely and we could use it as a way of getting extra peeps there.

Who organises it?

Juamei - I really think that once you've frobbled daan south you oughta get some sourthern megalith meet up & running before long. Anyone else out there think it good idea? Howzabout we all try gerrin a few of them in different parts of the country.

From thereon y' never know wot we can do... Annual conventions. Journal. Lectures from the likes of Devereux, Burl, etc. Why the hell not!?

Hi people

Soz to say I'm not gonna be able to get to the gathering in Bratf'd this evening. I've come down with one helluvan annoying cold/flu-thingy: sweating, shivering, etc, & I feel truly crap. Typical...

But regarding the "outing" to seek out new stones in the region, can we make it either Sunday 11 July, or Sunday 18 July, to meet at the main entrance to Bradford Interchange at 10.30-11am. (I'd prefer Sunday 18th, but I'll leave it up to the discussion group) From here we can drive up &, firstly, have a look & see whether Dave Raven's find near the Otley Bull Stones is indeed one of the lost companions. From here, straight to Brandrith Crags, Blubberhouses. I choose this site cos both Wiliam Grainge & Harry Speight - grand Victorian antiquarians - told it to have druidic associations. And they weren't the sort of wrtiters carried away by such notions. By & large, when they made remarks about such places, there's tended to be summat tangible in it. At the very least I expect a few new cup&ring stones. If we're lucky, a bit more.

Have a good mega-evening people...

After tonite, the next Bradford Megalith Meeting will be Tuesday, July 27, 7.30pm onwards.
