Hi Nigel and Goffik and all

Thanks for those kind words. IMHO I think it unlikely that the bluestones were transported overland from their source to Stonehenge. As always it seems to me like far too much hard work when a sea voyage would make the job so much easier.

The evidence of the north ferriby boats suggests to me that the stones could have been transported by sea and river, making the job relitively easy.

One of the main planks of the glacial theory is that human transport is, if not impossible, highly unlikely. I would like to challange that view.
