I think said film will be transferred to a DVD-R presentation. The Assyrian panel forged by these guys was laughably bad - as in crude. The expert at the British Museum spotted a swivel link in the bridle of one of the horses and realised that it hadn't been invented then and that was the start of their plot unravelling. However, you can't forge tumuli and the museum's response is simply to ignore them. In a sense my parents and I pose a polar opposite situation within Bolton (yes, there's a shed) - we've uncovered huge amounts of prehistoric remains in Bolton and the museum treats them as fake. I've spoken to Mrs Downing's replacement on the phone and he's just up his own cuneiform! We'll get more publicity - when the story eventually breaks.

And I was recently semi-accused of faking a piece of studio pottery on eBay - as if anyone would bother. (Search eBay under 'mint sugar jar').

The next episode of the Bolton saga is that the local history society made a video in the 1990's, on an heritage grant. It's not bad and the narrator, a person named Wilfred Harrison, is seen expounding local history within a church, next to the Toothills long barrows. He's chatting about the stained glass windows but the sandstone window frame, behind him, is clearly cupmarked. We've just got the ok to collect the key and to take a look at the windows with a camera. (It takes longer to explain than to carry out, probably).
