Spotted Saturday. Not often you see D reg's never mind china blue ones. Looked rather rusty and original.

I agree, I thought it would be bigger. The brownie and hot chocolate I had were of a better size though :)

It was free anyway being a NT member

haha i suppose actually, there was some bloke who i was talking to last week who was after directions. who was in the nova im on about

Started talking to him and he said he travels the UK in his Nova etc, and i asked him how much he wanted for it just to see, and he told me that anyone who knew anything about Nova's would offer him £700+ made me laugh lol

seemed a funny guy in general

Henge is pretty crap, but it IS fun to park up and watch the daily 20+ accidents on the 303 as people rubberneck past it.

I didn't leave overwhelmed as people said. It is amazing in construction for its age(same time as the great pyramids at Giza where build I'm told) and the fact that they moved the stones from so far away but I agree, not the highlight of my weekend

Yeah makes the NT membership pay as well. The missus got some nice photos of it on her DSL, I took some gay phone shots
