   Support Centre, UK.Lines: 79    On Tuesday of last week an entirely   
   new crop formation appeared for the first time near West Wo   
   ods, Lockeridge. From the air this looks like an enormous fish, whale   
   or dolphin 200 ft long. At each end straight pathways of flattened   
   crop lead out into the centre of large rings 60 ft in diameter. The   
   two paths are co-linear and form the central   
   axis of the formation about which it is symmetrical. On either side of   
   this great fish-shape are other pathways each slanted backwards at 45   
   deg. These have the appearance of flippers, or perhaps the dorsal and   
   ventral fins of this marine animal.   
     Whether this represents a whale, a dolphin or other fish, hooked   
   between two great rings is not clear. Certainly the elongated tapering   
   body which which has filled out from a swirled circle at its centre is   
   something never previously seen. Last Thu   
   rsday a further identical formation appeared near Beckhampton, three   
   miles away. One interesting facet is that the plain ring with a   
   straight path to its centre is one element of the "unbelievable"   
   pictogram at Barbury Castle, which Dr Meaden has had   
    to say is a hoax.      On Thursday a friend of mine was being   
   interviewed for a Channel 4 documentary in the first "whale" at   
   Lockeridge. This proved almost impossible due to the noise of   
   helicopters and microlights above. He met Robert Watts who wa   
   s trying to film the formation for his new movie at the same time. He   
   is a film-maker who helped George Lucas produce 'Star Wars' and who   
   made movies like 'Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom', etc. His   
   colossal helicopter which roared overhead, and   
    to which he gave instructions through a walkie- talkie, made the   
   Robinson my friend was in look like a toy.      Footage of the Circles   
   will be used in his latest movie, 'Once upon a time in the Universe',   
   which will be released in late 1992. Above   
   in the helicopter they were using a fabulously expensive VistaVision   
   movie camera, one of only three in the world. Talking to him later   
   they discovered that he was extremely knowledgable about the circles   
   and had a very good insight into the circles   
   nature .My friend was flattered to hear that he attributed this to   
   some extent to what he had written in 'The Crop Circle Enigma'.   
   (Published by CCCS)     In the last few days two more similar   
   formations have appeared in the Silbury Hill area. The la   
   test ones are smaller and have the end rings over- lapping the   
   tapering ends of the "fish-body". The two flippers are missing. One of   
   these formations is near the end of Stone Avenue, an avenue of menhirs   
   running S. from the great Stone Circle at Ave   
   bury. The connection between the dowsable energy lines which run   
   through this Stone Circle and along Stone Avenue and the new   
   formations seems undoubted. This is immediately next to the energy   
   line whose remarkable variations had been dowsed during t   
   he earlier months of this year. And beside this new formation is a   
   precise semicircle which is also something not previously seen.   
   Reports are coming in of circles and larger formations in   
   Cambridgeshire, Nottinghamshire, Cornwall, Kent, Essex, Buck   
   inghamshire and Hampshire all of which have been found in the last few   
   days.  There are many different shapes, some completely new like the   
   strange curly designs being found near Cheesefoot Head. A quincunx   
   formation in which one of the four satellit   
   es is replaced by a triangle has appeared near Chequers, a Prime   
   Ministerial residence near High Wycombe. I am told that the arrow-like   
   triangle points straight at Chequers.  There is a few formations in   
   Cambridgeshire last weekend. Just a simple pic   
   togram or two at Sutton near Ely where circles have never previously   
   appeared and a magnificent 200ft diameter ring (10 ft wide) where the   
   standing wheat in the middle is quite undisturbed. The latter, at   
   Elton, was found one year to the day after a   
   similar formation in the same place in 1990. The field where this ring   
   and a smaller ring and circle are situated is right over the site of   
   ancient Durobrivae, the second largest settlement in Roman Britain.+--
