Sat August 28th 1976: Rory!

I'd promised Roy I'd try to blip a shot of the photo I have of me laying on the altar stone at Stonehenge in '76. Sorry Roy! No sacrificial virgin (???) maiden blips here! It's somewhat off-colour now and was taken from a distance away, and despite some attempts at edtiting the end result was totally abysmal :-))
However, the photo I've blipped is a very, very special one - I know excactly when it was taken - sometime after 10pm, as our beloved Rory Gallagher was headlining Saturday night at Reading Festival. Yes, we're listening to Rory play! (Hence the enraptured grin on my face) Woohoo! This was around 10 days after our stay-over at Stonehenge. So I took a shot of it, and with a generous dash of brightness and contrast applied I managed to get something resembling a blip!

And just for Roy's benefit, here's a link to that horrendous Stonehenge pic - and I promise you, that blurry figure you can just about make out on the altar stone IS me! rofl
