This is an interesting read on the 'tourist experience' at Tintagel, "A Disgruntled Tourist in King Arthurs Court":https://www.academia.edu/583621/Disgruntled_Tourist_in_King_Arthurs_Court_Archaeology_and_Identity_at_Tintagel_Cornwall …
@caitlinrgreen Last time I went to Tintagel there was a Mitsubishi Zero flying about
@maximpetergriff Did you take cover in the tunnel?!
@caitlinrgreen weirdly I was holding a model of one at the time ( I was 6 )
@maximpetergriff Did you check to see if the one in your hand controlled the one in the sky...? ;)
@caitlinrgreen that notion was mentioned at the time
@caitlinrgreen @RoyalCornwall I'm confused. ......I've seen stuff like that laying around in every slate quarry this side of Snowdon
@shearman_mark @RoyalCornwall Zoom in if on a phone/tablet, inscriptions clearly visible, and found in secure 6thC context...
@caitlinrgreen @RoyalCornwall it's after 12:00, so that can't be an April fool's day item. BTW does it have "Arto" scratched on it?
@alanrew @RoyalCornwall Artognou :) Plus other things too!
This very item may have caused Monks to ferment!
@caitlinrgreen Cynics will ridicule Caitlin
