Hello Brian and family,

Happy Sol Invictus.

Myris of Alexandria.
Greetings, Brian, & Bloggers One & All.
TOM & I have been flying low in good old Tardis during Advent (we were of course there for the Original Advent,too, and studied That Star with fascination).

Judging by the contents of the category “new age nonsense “ i.e. non evidence based ideas the “ glaciation of Salisbury Plain “may have been a more appropriate example while axe factories are certainly not
