You will go craftily editing your posts, won't you? It's true. There is no link. Shakespeare never went to Tenby on holiday. It's all bunkum. It doesn't matter. But don't you want a bit of fantasy and intrigue in your rationalist world? (this is a rhetorical question).

I edited it straight after posting! You must have been sat there clicking on the refresh button.

In the context of prehistoric sites, I reckon there's enough exciting stuff about 'em that's likely, without introducing stuff that's downright implausible (this is my problem with the leaps of faith some of my esteemed TMA colleagues make). The association between the cave and the play is interesting, and so long as it's not represented as fact, it should be posted under 'Folklore' (IMHO).

Bill was from the Midlands. It's highly bloody likely that he went to Tenby on his holidays! Probably went to Borth as well :-)
