Never mind, we had a nice wood fire at Stonehenge and we patronised the local stores in Amsbury.

Aren't the druids that claim Stonehenge, the same ones who are seen around the stone circles in Wales??

We're still building circles come to think, one day in the future, someone will come along and think, "Now why would anyone build a circle of stones"

I must be from the future because I don't know why.

Is Stonehenge, Avebury etc just a focal point for folks to meet, or do any our our contributors know more??

PS, there's a stone circle in Betws y Coed, so Mothman, you were nearly spiritually connected to Firefox or is the spiritual connection Vodka??
 
I think the druids are all things to all men. It's a pretty loose grouping encompassing all things pagan and alternative eg crystal healing.

The one's I have met are pretty friendly though and welcoming to wild campers or others who want to enjoy the great outdoors and the natural world, you don't have to be a pagan.

Stonehenge happens to have the tracks nearby which are frequented by wild campers, some new age travellers and Druids alike. Avebury likewise has the ridgeway, though we haven't tried that yet. Like Stonehenge, there's no wilding at the actual stones themselves, it is at byways nearby.

I feel sorry for Bigpeetee. He's invested time in an initiative which would help members and bring business to the festival, only to be met by an official who doesn't seem to have a clue about legislation or any sense of how to promote tourism.

Don't lose heart, keep on chipping away at these people. It's a numbers game. They could have had 15-20+ motorhomes who would not have come otherwise, so the argument about existing campsites is irrelevant. That's a spend at the festival of anywhere from £700 to £1000+ they missed out on. They need to bring in the business from all sources to make their event work for the local economy.
 
All it's done is make me more grumpy than ever where officialdom is concerned.

Fight the good fight............

Meeting with local councillor in Jan, got all you comments re Betws missing out on tourism, anymore direct and considered comments welcome.
