In defence of crop circles:
I am a cynic and don't believe the rutting deer/UFO theories.
However I DO enjoy crop circles, preferring to see them as temporary landscape sculptures. If you see them this way, they're rather beautiful.
Alton Barnes is lovely. I went to see the mega crop circle there in ... was it 1991 or 92?... the one that featured on the cover of the Led Zep compilation album and it WAS very impressive. I have some nice photies of my daughter - then just a baby, really - toddling round in it. Big circle, Small girl. Very cute :-)
You'll enjoy it.
