Many thanks for that Mr t - it's a new one on me and duly added to the stack.

Our very own gjrk is probably too modest to mention it himself but there's a flippin' good poem of his now up on - http://megalithicpoems.blogspot.com/ Though Mr g's poem is inspired by the Knockawaddra alignment in County Cork it fits well with the pic of Stonehenge by Gideon Fidler that precedes it.
