Thanks for the reminder on that Goff.

Think it’s been mentioned before but there’s a wonderful engraving by Meaulle (after Chiflar) of the Carnac Stones going down to the bay of St Colomban on Christmas night to drink. Dunno where the original is but it’s illustrated in the little (and well worth getting) Thames & Hudson book Standing Stones by Jean-Pierre Mohen (ISBN 0-500-30090-9).
