A small claim to fame but I appear to have taken a leak in the presence of being from otherworlds :o
While walking near my parents firends house in Avebury we found this

X marks the spot so to speak. It was back in July but I've only just found the picture.
Didn't know they grew leaks in Avebury :wacko:
TL. :cool:

You should consider a career as a sitcom writer for ITV ;)
So the being from otherworlds was there watching you take a leak? Shesh you'd think they have something better todo than watch Smilo relieve himself!
I think they'd left by then.
Aliens only make crop circles at night and it was about a week later during the day that I was there. There were quite a few people wandering about waving crystals about and chanting stuff. Oh and a bloke with a geiger counter .
that shape is awfully acurate..... how the hell would anyone do that on the ground?
String and pegs.
I have a friend who makes crop circles, he was just flown to New Zealand by Japenese TV for a week so they could film him making one.
yeah but how do they get the proportions and the angles so perfect? that shape in this thread is spot on.
Stryker - you like that, then try explaining this one - arguably the daddy of them all.

The microscopic dot in the centre square is a person which should give some idea of scale ( it's 1500ft across). And it appeared within a four hour window.
Surely we are not alone. ;)
GFK - Who's your mate? I might know him.
Very Mandlebrot-esque in places, aparting from the repeating and closed-ended nature of the shape of course ;) But whatever the wource of design inspiration, you need a lot of planks to do all that in 4 hours......

His name is Neil otherwise known as goosey and he lives in Kent. He and his friends are responsible for most of the circles in Kent.
so your friends with an alien then?

Rod Dickinson is the guy I know...slightly. He and his team do a lot of work in Wiltshire, Warwickshire, Gloucestershire I think.
so how do they get a farmer to agree to half his field being flattened? or do they 'borrow' the space?
Every time a circle apears loads of scientists, pseudo-scientists, Spiritualists, cranks, weirdos, TV crews, local reporters, sightseers and odd bods want access. So the farmer charges a pound a visit and makes ten times as much in the week or two the circle is up than he or she ever lost in damaged crops. They love them.
Comfortingly, the farmer only has to leave a tin and a notice asking for a fee and almost everyone is honest enough to pay up of their own accord.
Makes ya feel all warm inside :)
Sand Circles :huh:

Surely the Invasion is imminent. Run for the hills :blink:
You know what? I'm such a sucker I reckon I'm destined to be the one who goes rushing up to the alien ship waving and shouting 'Hello. Welcome to Earth. Show me your technology'.

I suddenly hear the X-files theme. ;)
To me they all look as if the images have had something overlaid rather than it being a photo of an actual shape
