Thats a tough spot to be in StoneGloves, being the only person retaining that lore. Depending on circumstances, it would be nice to see it.

I know that I went to Mysterious Britain to put lore that was disappearing online, knowing full well it was losing an edge I had over other tour guides andpossibly putting us all out of business if it was then put on satnav RoadTour.

Some druid groups want you to keep secret things you learn too, and then you wonder what the use is if the lore dies out. I've only had that happen where I was told stuff from a group when I was very young though, other later stuff I've eventually found references for and so have another source when quoting, so it wasn't a secret to them alone or under some kind of copyright.

Is it just lack of enthusiasm that is holding you back, or something more. Is there anything anyone could do that would help?

Heres a link to paranormal activity at 150 different stones if you are looking for a favourite eerie story. Lots seem to be connected to the "witching hour"

I've been working on an ancient Hendrix track - one of the Chandler Tapes - and have added a sampled vocal. It's an Inuit man, whose skidoo broke down far from home, who spent three days stuck in the cold, under the Northern Lights. On the stretcher he says "Eerie unexplainable dreams really horrible" and I've looped that ten times (number of fingers), with tape echo, into the song. It works well.

I've found that when you find new stuff nobody wants to know. That was quite unexpected. Also when you set something up - "here's a stone circle I've found" - smallminded twerps come along with petty objections. "That's not a cupmark it's a socket", for instance. My life seems fairly sturdy at the moment and not in imminent danger of collapse. Something else I've found is that noone gives you any help. Truly - none.
