Michael, your anser to the " always wonder just how they do that "Druidic" stuff " is....

With the help of UFO's of course !

You are right. How could I have forgotten that!

Agree with Leo and that Stone Hedge is great, until you see it and say "hmmm, I thought it was going to be bigger"
That's true of almost all famous monuments and buidlings I have seen so far. The only exception was the Eiffel Tower. That thing is so big, in reality it's much bigger than it looks in pictures.

I don't know if Leo put this in a previous post but now you can't even go up to the rocks, you have to walk this roped off path around it. If I did get a chance to walk thru Stonehedge, I would be affraid to touch anything because the luck I have the rocks would fall on me.

I suppose that makes sense from a conservation point of view: those stones might have been up for thousands of years, but it's only recently that thousands of tourists have been visiting the site every day.

Try visiting York Minster some time. It's probably not the tallest or largest cathedral in the World, but being surrounded by densely packed buildings less than a tenth of its height certainly makes it look dramatic: even more so given that most of the building in its current form went up between 1080 and 1115. I live about 300 yards from it and that building is always the first thing you see after stepping out of the front door, even in dense fog or rain. Darren once remarked that if you were to gut the interior it would make a great Imax cinema... [evil]
