Well, here it is. The Crazy Paper AKA -

bigbookoftorcs.com/2023/10/19/all… 'The #Pulborough Area' #torc was found in #Sussex in 2019. At first glance, the torc appears to be an #IronAge example. However, closer examination suggests it may be later 19th/earlier 20th century in date.

But if it is, how on earth did it end up in a Sussex field?

Just voted & discovered that you can make an official complaint about requirement for photo ID at the vote - election officers will take down your complaint name & address & pass it to the elections teams... so please folks - have your say!

#Vote #PhotoID #Elections2023 ... and please folks, if you do this, be kind to the election staff- they're doing a thankless task and are likely to get a lot of trouble today. If you have to wait when it's busy, wait kindly.

The election folks are not those at fault here!!
