| Yes it was excellent. The running order was like this Intro by Julian then 45 minutes of Aubrey Burl talking about John Aubury, William Stukely and the different "ages" of development of Avebury Then followed the Avebury segment of Julians Modern Antiquarian programme and finally 45 minutes of Dr Mark Gillings and Dr Joshua Pollard talking about the excavation of the Beckhampton Avenue. There was supposed to be a question and answer session at the end but 3 questions in the fire alarms went off and the museum was evacuated while 3 fire engines turned up to check it out. It must have been a false alarm but by the time it was all checked out most people had gone and the event was over. Everyone including Julian had great fun taking photographs of fire engines and that was that. A very good if not slightly truncated event. Aubery Burl was facsinating Gillings and Pollard were entertaining and the account of the Beckhampton Avenue was really interesting. Thats it Afterwards all the Head Heritagers ajourned to the Museum Tavern Moey and myself finally stopped lurking and introduced ourselves it was good to meet everyone and put faces to the names. Sorry you couldn't get there Joolio Reply | with quote |  6th July 2002ce 01:15 In reply to: Discover Avebury. NE good? (Pete G) |
