My ancestors were giants and the facts about giants is true the fact that they were covered up to showcase Darwin Evolution theory is how Atheists took power from Christian believers and the church. Queen Victoria’s death mark a dark day for Christian people all over the world because a Anti Christ Spirit started filling up the entire world with more haters than loving Christian people each year. King Arthur of the Great Britain peoples was a giant in the flesh and in legend.

Not being British, seeing this makes me want to pack my bag and go back there immediately. There is something quite unique and comforting in the landscape, the pubs, the language and the courage of you people, that's truely magical. The way British (and Robinson, his crew and the people interviewed are a fine example) can show and tell stories is of stunning beauty, just like the land from which they grow. If only the kitchen was of the same standard... Please keep the country together, because for an Anglophile (wrong term actually) it's about the entirety of the British Isles that makes up that Tolkienesk atmosphere. As for Tony Robinson: though I severely miss the comedy in which he starred, nice to see he has found something he clearly has put his heart in (and it shows). The image of Baldrick has all but disappeared ;)

When I was privileged to go to Britain and spend a weekend running about on my own I was totally surprised to learn that these ancient trackways are totally preserved in today's culture. If a farmer has a trackway across his pasture, even if he's got an angry bull in there, there will be a way to walk over the pasture wall that the cow can't get over. There's a special word for that walk over that is not occurring to me at this moment. You walk at your own risk, but the pathways are still there that have been there for thousands of years. You can literally hike a trail that is thousands of years old whenever you want to in Britain, miles and miles and miles of them.

England in the summertime is the prettiest time with all the flowers growing and lovely hillls and vales. I remember 3 of us kids tried to make one of the Roman stones dislodge from the wall. Impossible to do. How they built those walls with no cement or whatever still amazes me. The thatched cottages are awesome to look at and very lucky if you see a person thatching their home. Very good video.

If Sir Tony wrote this show, then I will bet it was he who wrote the Time Team shows. I'm sure every word was not written, and in the shows that were live, nothing was written except ideas about what would happen, but the shows always had such lively vitality and a sense of plot. THIS show is brilliantly written, very entertaining, not boring, not stuffy, very romantic, a joy to watch. Just like the Time Team episodes. I've seen a lot of history videos now, but none so entertaining as those featuring Sir Tony. Oh don't get me wrong! I love me some Time Team, every single one of those characters, most especially my beloved Phil and also the lovely, brilliant, Auburn haired Helen. But now I see that any show I can catch Sir Tony in will have that same sense of joy and wonder. ❤️

In south east Michigan we have a very small town called Ridgeway. An east west and north south road intersect there. The north south road is call Ridge Rd. It runs along the bank of what was a giant swamp extending from lake Erie. It was drained ages ago. In spots, its just high enough above the now billiard table flat farm land, you can see for miles. On clear mornings you can see the power plant stacks from south of Detroit, to the Toledo Ohio area.
