    The final circle of the season (so far as we know) appeared on Sept 12
in a crop of linseed near the church at Old Alresford, Hampshire. It was a
plain circle of 38 ft diameter, swirled clockwise.
The circle, which I'm assured is genuine, in one of the very last uncut
fields in Southern England.

     Meanwhile more murky facts are emerging slowly from the 'Dave and Doug
Hoax' saga.
The story was supplied to Today by 'MBF Services' although Today stated
that it had paid no money. When asked how MBF could be contacted Today either
dodged the question or gave conflicting replies : (1) 'There is no telephone
number for MBF' (a funny sort of news agency !) (2) They didn't know the
address of MBF (3) the story had been marked 'Copyright MBF Services' to
prevent others publishing copyright material (4) we could reprint whatever we
liked without charge (5) MBF had an address in Shepton Mallet (6) a contact
number for MBF was 0962 - 713843 on the Twyford (Winchester) exchange.
(I think this last one slipped out by mistake.)

    The Shepton Mallet address is an accommodation address with a firm of
chartered accountants who have MBF as a client. Describing it as a
'Scientific
Research and Development Company', they would tell us no more details about
their client. The Twyford number had been discontinued by last week, and
enquiries to British Telecom revealed equal confusion. It was descibed first
as a private residential number, and then as a 'special exchange number'.

    Solicitors searches have now revealed that the director of MBF is a
certain
Andrew Winsloe Clifford of Maiden Beech Farm, West Crewkerne, Somerset. This,
of course, solves what MBF stands for, but we still need to find out about Mr
Clifford. He and his wife are sole shareholders and the company was first
registered in April 1991. No accounts have been returned so far.

    On Friday Doug and Dave were confronted on Granada's 'Upfront' TV
program.
They were asked on the program the following questions:
(1) Who are the MBF news agency and who are the directors ?
(2) Why does MBF have no telephone number ?
(3) Have you at any time, or now, worked for the Government Intelligence
or Security services?
All three questions were denied, evaded or laughed off. The TV show finished
in uproar.
The plot thickens.
