That's what I kept saying yesterday, but, like the girl in 'The Fast Show' who comes up with ideas but is constantly ignored by the males around her, I gave up in the end.

I still feel very strongly we should have 'Antiquarian', 'Ancient' or 'Prehistory' in there some place. However, feel free to ignore me.

I'll get me coat.

Hear hear! (not the bit about the coat)

Mind you, the letter "A" could stand for whatever you want, sure you could *say* it stands for Action, but really you'd know it stands for Antiquarian, or Artichoke, or ....

H'ad on...

Heritage Antiquarian?
Hmmmm.

I'm glad I never took me coat off.

I pushed for "Prehistoric" too but was told it had bad vibes. Why? What have we got so far after nearly 200 posts? Still faffing around the name! Action group or talk shop? Sorry, I know I'm a grumpy old sod, but it don't bode well if we ever want to take speedy effective action to actually protect a threatened piece of prehistoric heritage.
