Baddest Band In The Whole Damn Land…..
A friend asked me to recommend some Led Zeppelin to him - he'd never listened to Zeppelin!
Here’s what I sent him….
“I’m not sure if you’d go for their more heavy Blues/Rock stuff. I’ll mention tracks you might like, and the album they’re on….
’Stairway To Heaven’ is on Led Zeppelin 4.
‘Thank You’ is on Led Zep 2 – along with ‘Ramble On’ – which you might like.
On the album Physical Graffiti there’s ‘Kashmir’ – I loves it. And ‘In The Light’.
Robert’s solo album ‘Mighty Rearranger’ has ‘Shine It All Around’ - here’s a related tale….

By the way - after being closed for a few years - the Cairn is open again. Hurrah!
And – I’ve introduced someone to Led Zeppelin! Double HURRAH!
ENJOY!”

Horned Spirals!
In Lidl (other supermarkets are available) we got a packet of horned spirals, made from puff-pastry and covered in chocolate!....
Combining our love of archaeology and our love of yummy sweet things.
Horned spirals? There are horned spirals to be found carved at sites in Kilmartin Glen……

At sites in the Bru Na Boinne…….

I was thinking - imagine if I could go back in time to when these carvings were being made, and offer the carvers a puff-pastry chocolate coated Horned Spiral?
