update.................just to let you all know whats going on at the mo.......the NT for the last couple of afternoons have closed the gate to the main carpark at 1630...they have however.....NOT...LOCKED OR PADLOCKED IT......not yet anyway!!!!!! at the moment any unattended visitors vehicles parked in the carpark when the trust come to close the gate are having letters placed on them stating that the gate is closed but not locked and when they leave.....could they let themselves out and close the gate behind them.................(i dont think it'll be long before they actually do secure the gate properly...)....a few locals have already complained that they were unable to park as usual whilst taking a stroll or walking there dogs......also at last nights full moon no one parked in the large carpark,most parked in either the high st or in the pub cp,with a few risking it by parking in the small cp.............in the cove we had 22 people who stayed until approx 0315 doing our thing..............whilst because of the lunar eclipse and the harmonic concordance there were over ....100...other visitors to the sun circle, a lot of which were not regular visitors................but came anyway.........and hopefully enjoyed...and will return.....................(hopefully.)..................everything went well,until a few mins past 12,when the peace was shattered by a screaming car alarm which went off intermittantly for the next hour and a half.....................the owner was unable to be found and consequently the villagers were disturbed.....this was not wanted,or needed but just goes to prove that visitors and us....... would be better off parking in the main cp out the way ......sensible solution,you would think!!!!!! it can only be a matter of time before the locals get totaly fed up.........then what????......we are drafting a letter to all residents outlining whats going on,and asking for any comments and suggestions as to a way foreward....possilbly a meeting to sort out any issues raised....on both sides.......or is this too much to ask??????
