Geophysics (although it wasn't named that) was a specialist subject of mine at the Poly. Other two were Remote Sensing and Energy. Bus time is coming round pretty sharpish and I'm waiting to hear from an ebay seller - a massively heavy film editor - don't want to leave it to next week.

All the grid references on the SMR are mine. But you'll never practically get up the hill to it this time. Leave it till later. August eg I've asked for a grant from the local AONB development board to securely locate my SMR entries in two halves. This year cairnsmounds and curricks, next year everything else. I hoped to generate eight figure map references but the County Archaeologist has asked that I use a GPS and provide better description.

I'd forgotten about that circle even though I am very close to it. it's an irrelevance really, compared to other stuff that's thereabouts. But if you go near the Kirkhaugh stone circle - it's listed as Holymire - then please I want to hear your comments. If you're not on the railway line you can't see it - it's too big. The farmer that owns it has a Roman altar in his garden. It may even be Neptune (I've not seen that yet).

There's two 1024 x 768 desktop wallpapers on my website that are from the next hill to Longpot Head (Stouthard) - they're on the LINE!! page, somewhere.

Or try to get to this one - http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/post/36444 - it's just three hundred metres from a tarmac road. Nobody's seen anything like this before. Of course you need to ask permission - no, you haven't seen me - and then the farmers will probably tell you that there's nothing there. That's probably the best way to tell you're getting close to it ! (Ask them where the copper mine is - they should be able to point to it, a mile away. I'm going in there this year with a torch and a ball of string. It forks after a couple of hundred metres - I've been down the righthand (scary earthslips) but never tried the lefthand branch. It is probably contemporary with the mine on Great Orme.
