I have two, that whilst I don't know a thing about it I feel are equally worthy of consideration :

1. Reverse osmosis: as the water from Swallowhead Springs induces the pukes & shits and the Winterbournes dry up, a reservoir was dug, but this didn't hold enough water for the annual FA cup final held at Avebury, so a bigger reservoir was built, it was during this process that water was noticed to be springing up and filtered by the chalk, so a huge water filter was built so there was plenty of water and the world cups could be held at Avebury, only a new B&Q opened at Stonehenge with bluestone decking so everyone left and then the Romans took it over as a spa resort with water skiing pulled by chariots.

2. Slime : it is meaningless residue and academics that managed to foist an unnecessary tunnelling job on a precious ancient monument deeply loved by the public will have eternal reputations assured and numerous PhD's will be produced about it that no-one will ever read.

As I say, they are just ill informed theories.

VBB :o)

Must go back to my old breakfast cereal, this one really disagrees with EH...

Ouch! You need more sugar with your breakfast cereal, VBB!

1. Aye! "It's a far cry from small boys in the park, auroch skins for goalposts. Isn't it? Mmmmm. Marvellous."

2. Aye again! Nice work if you can get it......

Now you're just being nasty and cynical (and very accurate :-)

Welcome aboard ;-)
