Megalithic service stations?

[Mick Harper]

Yes, now work out why.

Since the two hills are precisely the same height, it would be good to know what you can see from where. Pop out and have a look, Borry.

Sorry, right now the local roads are jammed solid with Summer Solstice Sightseers, and it's not safe to drive. Especially after a full load of cider.

T'will have to wait until we nip down to Honeystreet Saw Mill, just down from t'hill, for more timber for more raised beds for M'lady Boreades prize-winning strawberries.

[Boreades]

I've had a look. Traffic was shocking. Fortunately, I was able to wave my TME VIP card at the friendly Wiltshire Constabulary's representatives, who recognised me as a fit member of a regularly organised society, and they let me through immediately.

Anyway, from Milk Hill you can see Giant's Grave, in a fairly good alignment on the reciprocal bearing to Tan Hill.

Milk Hill also sits on the line from Silbury to Casterley Camp.



Some of the long-term TME inmates might remember my attempt to interest the TME society in these "triplets" that seem to occur quite regularly.

Since this is also Britain's first (and I believe still biggest) onshore oilfield I wonder if it was discovered by geologists or by esotericists. Borry, ask around, can you?

[Boreades]

It was discovered by the Durotriges (if not earlier)

[Mick Harper]

No, it wasn't. Definitions are all-important in this game.

[Boreades]

You better do your own asking-around then.

Stonehenge as an oil terminal would be a novel idea.

I wonder what the origin of the word Kimmeridge is?

I can understand the ridge bit I think but Kimmer?
