Probably the more relevant quote of Adam Stout is this one, Robert.

"You're quite right to finger Robert Macgregor Reid. Ronald Hutton and
I were musing about the Nuada Lodge, and came to the conclusion that
the whole thing was invented by Reid junior as part of his policy of
erasing all trace of G W Smith from druidic history while at the same
time annexing his achievements."

I would tactfully suggest that this is far more relevant to this issue
than your marathon screed of cutting and pasting about Pat.

I personally don't care either way about Pat's filiation, but I find
your claim about Gerard Noel very doubtful in light of the above
conclusion - from two of the experts on British druidry, by the way.
