From the air this looks like an enormous fish, whale or dolphin 200 ft long. At each end straight pathways of flattened crop lead out into the centre of large rings 60 ft in diameter. The two paths are co-linear and form the central axis of the formation about which it is symmetrical. On either side of this great fish-shape are other pathways each slanted backwards at 45 deg. These have the appearance of flippers, or perhaps the dorsal and ventral fins of this marine animal. Whether this represents a whale, a dolphin or other fish, hooked between two great rings is not clear. Certainly the elongated tapering body which which has filled out from a swirled circle at its centre is something never previously seen. Last Thu rsday a further identical formation appeared near Beckhampton, three miles away. One interesting facet is that the plain ring with a straight path to its centre is one element of the "unbelievable" pictogram at Barbury Castle, which Dr Meaden has had to say is a hoax. On Thursday a friend of mine was being interviewed for a Channel 4 documentary in the first "whale" at Lockeridge. This proved almost impossible due to the noise of helicopters and microlights above. He met Robert Watts who wa s trying to film the formation for his new movie at the same time. He is a film-maker who helped George Lucas produce 'Star Wars' and who made movies like 'Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom', etc. His colossal helicopter which roared overhead, and to which he gave instructions through a walkie- talkie, made the Robinson my friend was in look like a toy. Footage of the Circles will be used in his latest movie, 'Once upon a time in the Universe', which will be released in late 1992. Above in the helicopter they were using a fabulously expensive VistaVision movie camera, one of only three in the world. Talking to him later they discovered that he was extremely knowledgable about the circles and had a very good insight into the circles nature .My friend was flattered to hear that he attributed this to some extent to what he had written in 'The Crop Circle Enigma'. (Published by CCCS) In the last few days two more similar formations have appeared in the Silbury Hill area. The la test ones are smaller and have the end rings over- lapping the tapering ends of the "fish-body". The two flippers are missing. One of these formations is near the end of Stone Avenue, an avenue of menhirs running S. from the great Stone Circle at Ave bury. The connection between the dowsable energy lines which run through this Stone Circle and along Stone Avenue and the new formations seems undoubted. This is immediately next to the energy line whose remarkable variations had been dowsed during t he earlier months of this year. And beside this new formation is a precise semicircle which is also something not previously seen. Reports are coming in of circles and larger formations in Cambridgeshire, Nottinghamshire, Cornwall, Kent, Essex, Buck inghamshire and Hampshire all of which have been found in the last few days. There are many different shapes, some completely new like the strange curly designs being found near Cheesefoot Head. A quincunx formation in which one of the four satellit es is replaced by a triangle has appeared near Chequers, a Prime Ministerial residence near High Wycombe. I am told that the arrow-like triangle points straight at Chequers. There is a few formations in Cambridgeshire last weekend. Just a simple pic togram or two at Sutton near Ely where circles have never previously appeared and a magnificent 200ft diameter ring (10 ft wide) where the standing wheat in the middle is quite undisturbed. The latter, at Elton, was found one year to the day after a similar formation in the same place in 1990. The field where this ring and a smaller ring and circle are situated is right over the site of ancient Durobrivae, the second largest settlement in Roman Britain.+-- ---------------------------------------- -------------------------+| DISCLAIMER: || The views expressed in this document are not a corporate view || nor reflect the views of my employer by any means but are my || own personal vi ews on this subject . || || Robert Trevelyan UKnet: rob@aixssc.ibm.co.uk || AIX Communications VNET: TREVELR at BASVM2 || Voice: +44- (0)256-5 6144 |+----------------------------------------------------------- --------+ ********************************************** * THE U.F.O.
