Ford Timelord returns to work on The Project to Uncover Ancient Hill Figures – 111 Lithographic Prints by Flinton Chalk

24 November 2020Mark

TC Lethbridge’s claims regarding the existence of Ancient Hill Figures on Wandlebury Hill in Cambridgeshire caused significant controversy within the archaeological community, with most archaeologists believing that Lethbridge had erroneously misidentified a natural feature. Lethbridge’s methodology and theories were widely deemed unorthodox, and in turn he became increasingly critical of the archaeological profession. The area of Wandlebury Hill has been described as a neolithic ritual landscape. Imagine how the archaeological community are going to take it when they discover a car has returned to work in the neolithic ritual landscape to help raise funds to substantiate TC Lethbridge's claims? Iron Man Records is pleased to announce that Ford Timelord has returned…

F23 Podcast E18 featuring Oliver Senton – October 9th, 2020

15 October 2020Mark

The F23 Podcast is a conversation based podcast with interesting, inspiring, inter-dimensional beings of wonder who have chosen a human form for this incarnation. In conversation with Jamie Dodds (Pope Flag-dag the Brave) sharing their experiences, journeys, learning and un-learning from their off the map adventures through the counterculture. F23 is starting to look like some sort of Iron Man Records Patron Broadcasting these days. I can't believe it. It's brilliant. I haven't even started going through all the episodes yet, but I will. I had no idea so much has been going on while I've been working on other things like do these stairs go up? Or which way to…

UPDATE: Project to Uncover Ancient Hill Figures on Wandlebury Hill, Cambridgeshire

24 August 2020Mark

Some things I get involved with make no sense to me at all. The Project to Uncover Ancient Hill Figures is one of them. Flinton Chalk is a dangerous optimist and I find it hard to say no. Would you take instruction from a used car salesman? This is the man who got chased across Fyfield Down near Avebury by a spectral Black Dog and used to spend his spare time dressing up as a Transvestite Pirate Nun, driving around in an old police car which was used in one of the Superman films. You may also know him from recent outings as a member of the band Badger Kull. Let…

TC Lethbridge in 2020 – Standing On The Verge Of Getting It On 

3 August 2020Mark

TC Lethbridge – Project to Uncover Ancient Hill Figures on Wandlebury Hill, Cambridgeshire

23 April 2020Mark

What’s the best thing you can do with £100? I think I’ve said this before, If you spend too much time in a state of mind which prevents normal perception, behaviour, or social interaction you might end up working with music. Living life in a completely deluded state, generating massive debt for no apparent reason can prove to be a nonsense. Sometimes I do things for money. Sometimes I do things for free, and sometimes I do things I don’t really understand. As the Cheshire Cat says “If you don’t know where you’re going, any road will get you there.” I like to take my nonsense seriously. You can be sitting…
