Black clothes rarely go out of fashion - just wear out. 'Never explain or apologise' except that's an incorrect quote. Everyone gets knockers 'great people are restrained by little people' - another mangled quote.

There's an artificial hill by the roadside in Brampton, Cumbria, covered in Beech trees, down among the houses. it'll be a similar size and shape to Silbury Hill. I think it's listed as a Motte yet I know the Normans weren't into such large scale earthworks. There's been plenty of prehistoric activity in the area. The Long Meg, Kirkhaugh circles and Mayburgh Henge, e.g. Yet the hill gets no attention whatsoever. Nobody's ever burrowed into it or complained about rabbit damage or nothing.

It makes you think doesn't it ?

(I tried to watch Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes last night but only got a third the way through).
