Crop Circles, Tornados and Aliens oh my!
Last week I was looking for a neolithic burial tomb and some ancient stones on Googlemaps. There are thousands of such places but most people only seem to know of Stonehenge. Whilst I was looking for my tomb and amongst … Continue reading

Busting the myth of London being a Rainy city
