foxdropper 17,092 Posted April 7, 2019 Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 Not being thick mate but I never thought for one minute there was a film crew but do they ban all cameras and cam phones at these events as well ,no didn’t think so .First thing anybody does these days on seeing something of interest is reach for the phone which none of these apperared to do . I actually would love to see one mate but alas the more I read ,the more I think it’s a wind up . 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I met with the student at the uni who is doing a disatation on the tooth pit samples at the end of March and they are all but finished, think this is when things can move forward, for obvious reasons I don’t have a lot of involvement in this side of things, there are also several meetings to be had with certain official body,s, which seem quite hard to get a platform on, I still just wonder round the countryside doing my little bit, were as some of the more academics are putting a lot more time and money into making it become a proper recognised subject, the subject needs funding to get accepted but needs accepting to get funding, so it’s a bit of a catch 22 and the first bit we have to do by ourselves to make the second bit happen if that makes sense 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It’s not my pics and without stealing people’s phones or SD cards how else can they be made public ? you will get to see some good pics I think in the near future as more people get interested in the subject plus things like trail cams and thermal, there are groups popping up on platforms like Facebook all the time were people are pooling there experiences and knowledge and there are far to many for them all to be wrong, mad or just lying, as the old saying goes the truth will out 1 Link to post Share on other sites
