A white table cloth with a repeat pattern of green Cerne Abbas Giants.
This might put a smile on your face. I converted the Cerne Abbas Giant stamp I carved and printed (last photo) into a repeat pattern and had it printed on some fabric by a local company! It pleases me greatly to see this every day and he seems very pleased to see me 😂 #cerneabbasgiant
Cerne Abbas Giant
Censored image of Cerne Abbas Giant in Qatar Airways version of film “Speak No Evil”
Seen on flight back from Middle East this morning…The poor old Cerne Abbas giant features in the film “Speak No Evil” but had been cruelly emasculated by the Qatar Airways censors…

Is this Britain’s cheekiest hill figure? Let’s go for a Friday Walk!

Visited the #CerneAbbasGiant today… or at least I think I did. Turns out the giant prefers a bit of privacy when it’s foggy. I’ll have to come back on a clearer day! 🌫️
How tiny snails helped unmasking a Giant:
"Archaeologists may finally know the age and true identity of the 'Rude Man,' also known as the #CerneAbbasGiant, one of dozens of #geoglyphs etched into the #British countryside."

#MikeDrop (or in this case: #clubdrop) - book editors get ready to start issuing updates to your textbooks because the #CerneAbbasGiant has been dated to the Early Medieval period! #archaeologicalscience

Now awaiting the inevitable fury of those raging against the @nationaltrust *rewriting history again* with the #CerneAbbasGiant #GiantNews findings?
No? Nobody interested if it's not to do with slavery or statues?
Funny that.....
So, how old‘s the #CerneAbbasGiant chalk hill figure? - Land #snail shells suggest 'medieval' (or later).
And now we‘re waiting for the OSL dates, right?
