Not shouting at all fitz, trying to keep the discussion centred on what's important down this neck of the woods. If Mr Carr wants to talk about his experiences with English Heritage up north he's perfectly entitled to do so - elsewhere, not here where we're talking about Silbury updates and English Heritage's failure to provide us with detailed information on their work at Silbury (or to answer our questions on their Ask the Experts page).

Best wishes to you too matey, when we gonna see ya down here? Can feel the Red Lion beckoning for a chinwag and a couple of jars :-)

For the avoidance of doubt, I have found several of the EH personnel I have met to be personable and dedicated. And most particularly Fachtna, whose dedication to the archaeology was total and who is now mysteriously out of the picture.

However, an ORGANISATION that has spent 7 years sharing virtually nothing with the public about the Silbury project other than when the calls became deafening and which is right now very actively promoting a plan to drive two miles of new four-lane highway through the Stonehenge World Heritage Site in the teeth of opposition from almost every other heritage and archaeology body is hardly going to be well thought of by many here.

If anyone wishes to show those two facts are inaccurate in any way I'll be pleased to revise my opinion.
