Too adventurous for me those flavours. And aye, Ayr and Galloway full of conventars and priest holes, some gruesome tales too. Cups and rings hypothesised as early grinding stones for crops right?

And aye, it's the day job. But I try to be a bit of a renaissance man, do a bit of everything

I wish I knew more about the covenanters! I also don't know much about cup and ring marks! I think they can be wide ranging like prehistoric art work or used in sacrificing animals, but really I've no clue! I just like that they are really old and someone did that hundreds of years ago and I can touch them now!!

I think if you work in IT you need to be able to do a bit of everything but programming sounds so tricky!!
