I left my Gothvos stone on the Thames foreshore under Vauxhall Bridge, as a place where offerings to the gods have been given by Londoners before London existed. This was an exciting spot on the walk where I first met (you jp) and Phil Smith (Mythogeography, The Crab Man:http://www.mythogeography.com) and really felt part of the movement of Walking Artists. I regularly cross Vauxhall Bridge on foot, while walking to and from work, and always think of The Ancestors smelting and sacrificing bronze swords to the same river, and feel connected to the flow of human history.
