Now THAT is a thought… What have they done with the Cerne Abbas Giant? Bing maps still shows him with a touch of stiffness and it ain’t rheumatism.

Long man got a long ■■■■■■■ in 2010, so it may indeed be that you were thinking of… I think it was just pitch marker paint though so they probably just did some manscaping to get rid of it.

edit - although I see the Cerne Giant came fitted from the factory now you mention it. Good to know the tradition goes back so far.

The Giant is an historical figure that is a protected monument, owned by the National Trust and thought to be of 17th century origin. A lot of history in Britain… Should give the thought police something to whinge about though…

Edit from the Mooney cockpit… Yep, he is there in all his morning glory.

The only way that land graffiti could be any more British is if it was followed by the word “w%^ker”".

If you travel a little further up the A256 (Dover Road) you come to the village of Buttsole. :upside_down_face:
