Whoips!
Up and down the thread...
Archaeo-action is smart, but it's AA.
That's too much like Antiquarians Anonymous.

Hurrah! A response! Thanks Hob. I was beginning to think I'd disappeared up my own sweet pagan ass.
I like Archaeo Action very much. The AA thing also refer to the "knights of the road" of course, (not just alcohol users) which has all kinds of implicit brand values -saving things, rescuing stuff stuck at roadsides, you know. Dont 'dis' it just cos it's got the wrong letters. Unless it spells ARSE or MOFO, I wouldn't worry.

I've no objection to that - apart from the 'A' in Ancient getting in the way of the SOS message.

(isn't this what Alan Partridgeson says ?)
My favourite term is Electric Druid, Electric Druids, Electric druidry. I did enjoy listening to Steve Hillage 'when he first went solo'.
I'm also keen on Brigantia, Brigants and Brigantine.
The last is a hair tonic made from the recycled post-consumer waste from discarded electro-acoustic homeburned CD's.
All the stuff I've read here about saving megalithic heritage is pure bollocks recording them certainly (and that certainly is the first step) - but I've bled my heart over these pages through two summers over the destruction to sites in SW Northumberland. The only Modern Antiquarians to visit any of the sites effectively speeded up the process of damage to them.
Ascribing the creation of a large crop circle to the work of pigeons (^ 2 hrs.) is a bit weird !

Argh! He's right, Archaeo could mean WWII plane crashes these days.
I can see why people get paid for comming up with names now, I'd always thought it must be a piece of p*ss.
I'm off to stare at something made of infeasibly hard stone.
