[Stones] A penny for your thoughts?

[Ric]

but amittedly, i left 'silver' [token of] at the 'Smithy' / long barrow - but i will continue to do so - if we are not careful we are going to turn ourselves into Puritans or something? i value traditions in folklore and support them - as long as those traditions do no active harm - they are sometimes a priceless and unique link to the past
   
  you may now slap my wrists at the Stones picnic - but not too hard!

            I would have to agree with ric that a pebble or a poem , or anything truly personal and thought about must be better than an impersonal penny dug out of a pocket on a last minute whim, and even then only because someone else has done it first, would they have wanted to or have even thought of doing it if they hadn't seen that someone else had done it?? Why is it so ingrained in humans to make a mark wherever they go??
    We go to see things for ourselves and take pleasure from that alone, we don't need to leave a symbol to show others that we have been there.
