Rutting STAG Makes the Economist

 rut (rʌt)

2. any deep mark, hole, or groove
3. a narrow or predictable way of life, set of attitudes, etc; dreary or undeviating routine (esp in the phrase in a rut)
vb, ruts, rutting or rutted
4. (tr) to make a rut or ruts in
[C16: probably from French route road]

I guess that is a pretty fair description of driving backwards and forwards between Airman's Cross and the Longbarrow Roundabout.

Well, who would've guessed it.  STAG and a bunch of bare-breasted maidens from the Loyal Arthurian Warband and our respective demos back on the 18th of December made the illustrious pages of the Economist magazine.

Amazing, staggering and very welcome.  It all adds to the portfolio of publicity that we are bringing to the cause.   You can read the article here: "Written in the Stones" by Bagehot




Our publicity guru observed:  "That's international exposure to the highest political and commercial circles. In 20 years of PR, investor relations and public affairs I have only had a strong enough angle for the Economist 4 times before - requiring the likes of railway disasters, pollution, flu pandemic and drought".

The boy, as they say, done good.
