They had just discovered what just might be tall stones beneath the buildings on the Ness of Brodgar, could it be an earlier stone circle, and so it hangs on suspense till they come back this summer season and root about a bit more.

I began to get interested then after what was I thought in many parts very dull - especially when Neill was not involved directly. Couldn't see the point of a so-called 'Archaeological Adventurer' being there and if I'm honest the girl either other than the seaweed under the stone idea (which I knew about as a kid in Jersey). For an adventurer the bloke didn't look like he'd got out much what with that lily-white skin and I thought at the very least he'd look something like Indiana Jones :-)

Some good bits too of course and still much as it was when I paid a visit about 5 years ago now with the exception of the main dig which has now become a monster.
