That's *fabulous* you were certainly in the right place at the right time to connect with that one Sem!

At what point in the stone-rocking did the thunder happen? I didn't hear it on the video, although my monitor speakers aren't amazing.
Was it at the first rock, or part way through or...?

Sounds like an incredible event, shame I couldn't be there but really happy that everyone had such a good time. Looking forward to seeing and hearing even more about the days' events.

Hi Rune
C remembers it as being in the first couple of rocks, which would be while Tim (Shropshire Traveller) was doing it.

Thanks Sem, I was wondering if it was linked to the stone being touched/moved initially.

Aeons ago, I remember watching a TV programme, something like 'Nationwide' where the presenter was walking in the countryside. He came to some standing stones and whilst talking, touched one and there was a huge peal of thunder. As it was a clear day, he was unnerved, then he touched the stone again, there was more thunder and he left, shaking his head in disbelief. Anyone else recall that , maybe there's a youtube clip somewhere.

Anyone experienced that themselves, touching a stone followed by a clap of thunder on a fine day? I've had it happen once but on a stormy day, the vibration from the thunder via the stone into your hand is something else!

Does NOBODY know about Brimham Rocks?
Monument Valley type weathering and logan stones. Check out [URL=http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/brimham-rocks/URL]

Well worth a visit but you will need to ask about the logan stones as they don't want people falling off of them.

Must pop up there and bash a few with a hammer to see if any of them ring.

It reminds me of the ringing rocks in Pennsylvania if you tap them with a hammer they make a musical tone. I wonder if it is a similar effect. http://www.unmuseum.org/ringrock.htm
