Another piece of ancient history -- from the Western Mail coverage of the Millennium Stone pull in the summer of 2000. This was the first glitch, after just one mile of pulling; after this, all the pulling was on asphalt roadways, with the assistance of low-friction netting. There were of course other glitches as well, culminating in the loss of the stone onto the bed of Milford Haven. It was not experimental archaeology's greatest success........
The drama is recounted in the pages of my book.
