Dartmoor is my home turf, but Wiltshire makes me calm and still (although the damaging of my beloved Silbury makes me seethe).

I don't believe that we need to know everything about the past in order to connect with it. A sense of wonder, curiosity and imagination are core tools in establishing a firm connection - I respect archaeology and admire archaeologists, but am wary of its overuse - especially when its results are hidden away from the good 'ol GP or used for political ends.

I am prone to deep thought, crap jokes and shooting my mouth off before I've thought things through. I believe in Peace and "Old Fashioned" Socialism.

Peace
