Yes, welcome Paul. Your contributions will be most welcome. I can only agree with you about "So much to do, so little time..."

Going around the Fornhams used to be one of my weekend walks when I lived in Bury.St.Edmunds. Hot damn I miss the trees

Thanks Peter
We don't have any 'big stones' around East Anglia - but thats not to say the locals around here in the bronze age / neolithic, were any less cultural than anywhere else. Most of our 'ritual landscapes' are only now coming to light through aerial recon - there is for example, one about 8 miles south of me at Fornham All Saints - cursus, hengiforms, barrows all there in cropmarks - then of course there is Seahenge, Arminghall - and the Grimes Graves site.
I would like to add something about the Fornham All Saints ritual landscape, and on Grimes Graves on the website, maybe something to do next summer.
So much to do, so little time...

Hello forum
Just a quick post to say hi from a new member. My name is Paul, age 43, married, three kids, work in a power station. We live in Thetford, Norfolk - not far from the Grimes Graves site. I used to do a lot of field-walking, but stopped five years ago. I now plan on starting again, - all set to go, land ready, etc - but then like a fool I had a fall at work, so it'll have to wait until the new year (praying for lots of snow and frost to clear the soil ). I have just rebuilt my fieldwalking website Thetford Forest Archaeology while stuck at home on the sick ... its got lots of lithics stuff in there .
So, hi, and I hope to become a regular!
