June,
There are lots of great contributors to TMA. Most people on here who have left reports have been well worth reading, but some stand out. Some write about varied places, others about their particular area, and give great reports, and info on differing sites.
As far a writing goes, and purely on that, the late Treaclechops was a gem. Her prose was second to none in my book.
This is similar to another post, but I think yours came first. Doesn't matter, as I've answered both of 'em. Same answer, hopefully, or I'll look a right tw@.
Regards,
TE.
Thanks TE, the posts by Treaclechops always affect me too - with her wit and insights on ancient sites. I only knew of her vicariously through Jane who clearly loved her dearly. Jane posted this last year and I hope she does't mind me posting the link - it is now four years since Rebecca (aka Treaclechops) died at the age of 38.
(I'll edit if you wish Jane)

Here's to Treaclechops ...

Only 38, how sad.

Tragedy. She's been gone four years and one week now. Since her lights went out I've never again really been able to dance. I mean arse-shaking, get-in-the-groove-let-yourself-go dance, like I used to with her.

And visiting the stoney sites around Oxfordshire - where we scattered her ashes - are always tinged with sadness.
