I can see the headlines now!
As I ping from tree to tree I wonder... why do I seem to have transformed into a pinging tree-dwelling thing?

Dear Pumpy,

I vaguely recall being on top of Glastonbury Tor at 12:34 and 56 seconds on the 7th of August in '90!

The gathering of (mainly stoned) New Agers up there at the time told me that it was REALLY SIGNIFICANT and wouldn't happen again for a thousand years .........

Fool that I was, I took their prediction at face value ...... thanks for puttting me right. Wonder if anyone with an idle few hours can calculate when it will happen again...... or if anyone studying for a maths degree could work out the rule for predicting it. Would we need to construct a henge to assist in the process?

Love and Peace
Jim

will happen...
on the 7th of august, 2109
so that's slightly wrong, this happens every 100 years (i think!)
and the same with 90...
grrr... these hippy druid types can't count

I vote new Henge to sort it all out!

Maybe Computer Henge, or Blackberry Henge to modernise the concept a little...

Or...Compost Henge for the Ish population! :thumbleft:
