A Walk From Avebury to Windmill Hill in Wiltshire
This is the last of our videos from our trip to Avebury in Wiltshire this year (2018). Marq English and I take a walk from the lovely church, St James' to Windmill Hill, one of the first populated places in the UK where numerous bell barrows can be found.
We even risk life and limb as we navigate a field of cows! I hope you have enjoyed our Avebury videos.

The most interesting thing about it (golden funerary mask) it's not just being gilded in gold like we've got a few examples like this, but it's because of him being a Roman citizen who lived in Egypt in ancient times and he chose to depict himself as an Egyptian.

The whole issue about ancient Egypt is that it's all about life, it's the story of life, even when you die you preparing yourself to live again and that's the beauty of it, so you see how they try to preserve their bodies so much through feeding, adornment and mummification because all of this leads them to the afterlife where they become divine, where they come here in this room, being al godly and heavenly and looking at their best.

(A) collection of Egyptian clothes, monuments and artefacts are going to be exhibited together for the first time, at the footsteps, or at the step, or at the foot of the Pyramids on the Giza plateau, so by this also it is also an invitation for British and other nationalities to go and enjoy Egypt's history and civilization, especially that so many museums, not only the one I mentioned, but others, are in the process of opening in the next few months.

Rendlesham Forest incident
The Rendlesham Forest incident is the name given to a series of reported sightings of unexplained lights and the alleged landing of a craft or multiple craft in Rendlesham Forest, Suffolk, England, in late December 1980, just outside RAF Woodbridge, used at the time by the U.S. Air Force. Dozens of USAF personnel were eyewitnesses to various events over a two- or three-day period. It is the most famous UFO event to have happened in Britain, ranking amongst the best-known UFO events worldwide. Along with the Berwyn Mountain UFO incident, it has been compared to the Roswell UFO incident in the United States, and is sometimes referred to as Britain's Roswell.
The Ministry of Defence (MoD) stated the event posed no threat to national security, and that it therefore never was investigated as a security matter. Later evidence indicated that there was a substantial MoD file on the subject, which led to claims of a cover-up; some interpreted this as part of a larger pattern of information suppression concerning the true nature of unidentified flying objects, by both the United States and British governments. One person to take this view was eyewitness and Deputy Base Commander Colonel Charles Halt. Another was former NATO head and UK Chief of the Defence Staff Lord Peter Hill-Norton, who stated whatever happened at this USAF base was necessarily of national security interest. However, when the file was released in 2001 it turned out to consist mostly of internal correspondence and responses to inquiries from the public. Sceptics note that the lack of any in-depth investigation in the publicly released documents is consistent with the MoD's earlier statement that they never took the case seriously. Included in the released files is an explanation given by defence minister Lord Trefgarne as to why the MoD did not investigate further. The sightings have been explained as misinterpretation of a series of nocturnal lights – a fireball, the Orford Ness lighthouse and bright stars.
