Rather than making silly comments about Castlerigg, I should be saying...

"Shwmai Cwrw, a chroeso i TMA".

I gather you're based in Wales, I'm guessing somewhere on the M4 corridor. I'm not actually Welsh (bloody incomers etc etc) but I've lived in Ceredigion for 7 years and Carmarthenshire for 3 years.

TMA is sadly lacking in Welsh based people, so I'm hoping that my hunch is right.

Ha! Actually, I am from Airdrie, Alberta, Canada. (We have our own ancient sites here, consisting of native burial cairns and "tipi" circles, and of massive glacial erratic stones left from retreating glacier and revered by the native Blackfoot, Peigan, and Blood tribes.) Still, I confess I am severely intrigued with Wales, and of all of Britain, and especially the ancient sites. Still, Wales by far captured my imagination of all the places we visited in Britain. Who can resist the beautiful language? (Of course, you must know the meaning of "cwrw" in Cymraeg?)

Oh, and I must commend you on speaking Welsh/Cymraeg. It is nice to know that even outsiders can learn the language and have a small part in the continuation of its noble heritage and pedigree. Bore Da. I do not even have any Welsh heritage, but Scottish. Yet, I am enthralled with Welsh culture, and I am searching desperately my genealogy for links to Wales. Well, many of the "Scots" were Welsh anyway, so perhaps I DO have some Welsh ancestry. Nos da!
