nice pics mate but what does it mean in the 4th pic down? the one with the skull?

Also, the skull and crossbones usually denotes that a Knight's Templar is buried there.

Yes, but it's not my copyright. I'll see what I can do!

Nice one, Van Buren!
you certainly get around mate,
Love that Mementomori/skull and crossbones pic of yours.. the hourglass/ sands of time image crops up a fair bit in old burial monuments and headstones, something to do with time and life passing i think, on the other side it looks like an open book.. scriptures/bible maybe? good stuff mate. Wickerman is a well sinister film! haven't seen it in a while, must check it out again.

cheers mate,trying to get the locations in while i can still afford fuel for the motor......

Thanks for this, Vanburen! As a fan of The Wickerman, it is much appreciated to see this location as it was some 35 years ago, or thereabouts.

As for the re-make, I watched the first half hour or so and that was all I could bear. Anyone want a nearly-new dvd? lol. (Director's cut of the original is best, btw.)

A cd of the songs is available too, the one I have features "Gently Johnny" (not all include this track.)

D.
