Used to be my home, more than ten years ago.

No, I cant even find the photo with the sword on my PC. It is there somewhere I am sure amongst the 20,000 plus photos. Here is another without the sword. [IMG]http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k268/stifyn/PC240010.jpg[/IMG]

The stone is one of a series of burial chambers across the high points of Gower. This particular stone has a cleft in it where the sword was supposed to have been. How the legend came about I have not the foggiest but probably some local hotelier came up with the idea to attract tourists. It was a hotelier that dreamt up the idea and legend of Gelerts Grave (the faithful dog) to attract business to the village of Beddgelert. Bedd = grave and Gelert is derived from a 6th century monk called Celert who was buried nearby and hence the name and nothing to do with this ficticious dog. Despite this, thousands of tourists flock to the monument to the dog that never existed each year so the ploy worked, not that Beddgelert needed any such ploy as it is a rather beautiful village at the foot of Moel yr Hebog and Snowdon.

Not that I know of Barrie, though I am from Morriston

This photo is awesome. (great picture) Makes you feel like Ponce de Leon. (A little history. The island of Key West was first discovered in 1513 by European explorer Ponce de Leon) The Sunsets only get better with time.
