No, but the antisocial actions of a minority were where this particular thread started. My first interest in stones was sparked by a visit to the Clava cairns many years ago, and finding them still in my thoughts days/weeks later. Since then I've been trying (and failing) to understand them. Being a weekend pagan and upsetting the locals has never been a part of it for me.

"Being a weekend pagan and upsetting the locals has never been a part of it for me."

That sort of comment's fairly loaded though, isn't it? Being a 'weekend pagan' doesn't have to go hand in hand with upsetting locals. And there's nothing inherently wrong with being a 'weekend pagan'. The spiritual validity or historical authenticity of such a path is an entirely different matter though ;)
