The Judicial Review about plans for Stonehenge is due (story in today’s Guardian) but it reminded me of an incident that happened long ago. It has stuck in my mind. If you head west out of London and take the A303, eventually something incredible happens. For most people it is somewhere after Andover. On the horizon, there appears a huge stone circle, a 5,000 year old miracle of engineering that even today no one knows quite how it was achieved. Stonehenge. But that day in 1995, for me it happened at the Little Chef restaurant a few miles east.

This cracked me up. I once went to a lobster shack in Maine. There were two windows in the wall, and not a customer in sight.
I went to the first window and a young woman appeared to ask if she could help. I told her I wanted to order some food, upon which she directed me to the other window, where, she said, orders were taken.
I did as instructed, only to have exactly the same young woman appear at the other window. To. Ask. Me. If. She. Could. Help.....
