Well, it was the seventies. Miners' strikes and all that.

Don’t know about you but I wouldn’t want to be researching a Neolithic stone circle without a doctorate in astrophysics under my belt


Why would that help?

Poor Matthew - yes, this is what rural is like. Everyone's a bit... different.

Aye. aye - they're both on the pull.

Fair play for dropping the mouthy kid from the footy team – way too volatile. A quick show of petulance and you’d be down to 10 men before you knew it.

They did actually dig up a ‘barber surgeon’ at Avebury but only called him that because he happened to be carrying a pair of scissors. Maybe he just liked making novelty paper lanterns.

Cold! You don't know the meaning of the word cold!
