Yo mathrocker!!!! Glad you like the pic. Couldn't respond before cos we've been away: me and Moth flew back in from Amman today so we're a bit wrecked after two gruelling weeks on the searingly hot dusty roads of Syria and Jordan.

Saw loads of bonkers crumbly stuff - R*man, Byzantine, Ottoman, Nabatean (Petra!!!!!), Chr*stian and Neolithic too! In fact yesterday morning we were looking at FIELDS of dolmens lining the Jordan Valley just north of the Dead Sea. (Quite close to the baptism site actually). I'm not kidding when I say that we must have seen between 50 and 60 dolmens in the space of 3 hours. What a mindblast! More soon - with pictures!

Hope Jane doesn't mind, but I've got to tell you that one of the most amazing things about that painting (one of my faves) is that it nearly got binned!!!! Jane rescued it by taking the drastic action of washing some of the paint off in the shower & was able to rework it slightly!!!!

It's also one of the rare occasions that J has used one of my photies (including the people) to help with a painting. I haven't posted the photo on TMA coz there are already so many moody silhouette pix of the circle.

love

Moth
