Earthstepper, TMA is* the undisputed, best site on the net dedicated to British prehistory. I can say that because YOU have managed to persuade Andy B of the Megalithic Portal to include - well, anything! Go back and play with the Portal, where your views have been accepted!

*Well, it was until recently. Now, Paulus is posting 'Holy' bloody Wells and Crosses and one of the Eds said to him:

>Keep 'em coming

!!!!!!!!!!!

betty

Yeh, The Megalithic Portal as the antient antiquarian in many ways complements this site. The raw and the cooked are both meat to me.

"Now, Paulus is posting 'Holy' bloody Wells and Crosses"

Oh, come off it!

Why can't people leave Paulus alone? He's adding vastly to this site, and putting a lot of time into it. The Eds seem happy with what he's posting and that's good enough for me. Holy "bloody" Wells were surely hugely significant in prehistoric times, if you ask me. Why else are Ireland's Holy Wells dedicated to Brigid? I'm sure that Saint Helen can probably be shown to have similarly heathen roots (anyone like to enlighten me as to the nature of these? Paulus?). And the crosses he's posted are all linked to the prehistoric in one way or another.

But all that's irrelevant - why can't people trust the judgement of Ed?

I assume you're a disguised "regular". I wish you lot would lighten up on newcomers who are actually adding a lot of stuff that's of great value to the site. There's no need for such hostility and bitchiness, its very petty and small-minded. The gods know how many potential contributors have been put off from posting their stuff because of this sort of narrow-minded outlook.

*trying to keep out of the same old bloody argument (and failing!)*

Wasn't going to respond but on points of accuracy - Paulus didn't introduce wells and crosses to TMA - both were on long before him and long before the Portal accepted them. The other inaccuracy is that the Portal hasn't accepted my views because they don't do Roman and Dark Age stuff either.

Dear Betty the Sheep - please don't be afraid of this Big Bad Wolf - I don't bite and why you don't feel able to useyour Portal/Stones name I really can't imagine. I have merely used the forum to express my views - no one is obliged to agree with them or should see them as any kind of threat. I'm just a cuddly old softie actually, but I have decided without any regrets on either side I'm sure - that TMA is not for me.

Now that really was my last post.
