thanks a lot, esp for link, good book i like how he links the geology and place, nowadays[in books] everything seems separate, it sounds like we should thank him in relation to blakey, to quote the favourite bit i read "I told him what had been their use and begged he would preserve them" {what a man}, but his arguement for 3 stones only uses there [blakey] and like i said when the light is right you can clearly see all the silted up holes [of the full circle], and if you follow the 4 posters down from aberdeenshire though perthshire down into northumberland and on to n york moors and look at the geology[and spread of people, ideas and into robin hoods bay by sea]] it starts to make more sense, i totally respect your opnion though, i just think its christians pulling 1 stone down to make the trilogy, and that 1 stone would not be there because it would have been broken up to make a wall or build a road, you have some beautiful countryside up there though, tar
