OK, I'll digress slightly into ley lines. Now I don't know much about them but I am prepared to allow a small amount of 'possiblity' into my thinking about people who get stoned and naked on ancient monuments. There may be some good come out of that.

I quite frequentlygo to Glastonbury, where there are meant to be kick !!! ley lines. But a high percentage of glastobnbury residents look distinctly unwell. everyone who tells you how great the ley lines are looks a fewsteps from catatonic collapse into toal inertia...with brief revival when ley lines can be squeezed in to converstaion , or edgey, twitchy and with a tendancy to look over one shoulder frequently and in need of a good hair wash and a dermatologist. TO be honest ...I'm happy with our fairly ordinary ley lines and having a shower.

I do like Glastonbury though..I've had many deep thoughts in the goddess temple.

edit: what the dickens? why can't I kick a donkey through the filter? I wish we had an English filter

There has been a lot written about ley lines in popular music.

Ley, Lady Ley - Dylan.
Leyla - Clapton.
DeLeyLa - Tom Jones.

And of course the most famous...
Ley Lines and Crop Circles across the Berkshire Ridgeway - by the White Stripes.

tbf I imagine there is more written about them in unpopular music...well...popular in Glastonbury.

Local point of discussion among those of us whose parents demand we go to the lavatory not the toilet and we don't talk exactly like them:

..is it Glahhhs-tonbury to rhyme with bottam or Glas-tonbury to rhyme with donkey. Many locally say its a bottom, like Bath is a long A, I say its a donkey, like the a in cat. Why I wouldn't have a bath to rhyme with cat I don't know.

Ah the ridgeway. My local stomping ground for many years.

Do you think rewired ever danced naked among the stones?

I didn't know what she was talking about, but there's been nothing in my ascendant for several years now.

Hmm - I have just put together a little list of where I think the 'nice people' lie in the political/authoritarian space - be interesting to see how close I am.

Anyone want to guess for Hamish, Generali, The White Horse - I was going to guess for Asherton as well but somehow I need more axies...

Sorry to go back to this, given it was sooo the day bfore yesterday, but am now concerned that I appear to be the only authoritarian among a bunch of bloody libertarians.

Is it cos I is not an aetheist? ie if you believe in God, you kind of have to firmly believe in there being a right and a wrong way of doing things...

I know that makes me slightly dim, apropos of the other thread recently, which came to the happy conclusion that only atheists were intelligent. Apparently.

And did you guess me right, michaels?
