BUILD YOUR OWN STONE CIRCLE

Did you know that Tim built his own stone circle?
Tim and another fella - who, curiously, previously lived in the house in which I now reside - used to cycle down to Avebury, Stonehenge and the like as a sort of annual summer pilgrimage. Well, they're getting on a bit now, being in their 40s and all, and were beginning to find the trek a bit of a slog, so one day Tim thought to himself "Why don't we build our own stone circle?"
As you do.
I wonder if they remembered to stick it on a Ley Line?
Here, for your delight, is a glimpse of said henge. It's official name is The Grove, but personally I think TIMHENGE rocks harder. (Rocks. Geddit?)
They aligned the stones with the sun and all that stuff.  Cool, eh?  One thing I don't get, though. Why build their own stone circle when they could have popped along to The Rollright Stones, 5 miles down the road?
