I feel toilet
There's nothing like standing in a windy field with about 300 other people staring at some rocks except Stonehenge.
Nice if they had finished it and put up a roof but otherwise I give the English an 'A' for effort.
Hauling these rocks 384km from the coast was obviously the original 'Rock & Roll' so I imagine it was the thing to do on a Saturday night back in 3000BC.
Unfortunately, no matter how drunk you get, pushing a big rock for a 1000 years will tire out even the most hardcore 'rockers' so I really can't blame them.

After our pilgrimage to 'the henge', we wanted to check out Bath, because apparantly there is a massive one of those there, (the English are renowed for their imaginative names)
Unfortunately, a really big traffic jam finished us off and we spent the next 2 hours watching much smaller rocks than 'the henge' on the side of the road whilst waiting for the population of Dunedin to pass through a one lane gap.

Hope these pics do it justice.
