I appreciate it's been a few years but I would love to see it!

If only...but now we have planned obsolescence to keep industry running. Annie Dear WoE,

I'm jealous of your archaeological exploits though thye were, perhaps, a liitle too far up North for a Southern boy like me :) Cheers Rod Annie,

Saw an interesting documentary on some excavations done at a small distance from Stone Henge. They've found a wooden structure very like the stone one about a mile or so away. Also, a large "village" from the same period has also been located. I visited a "dig" hear a section of Hadrian's Wall that had discovered seven layers of construction from various occupations (Gaul, Roman, etc). The lead archaeologist allowed me in the cordoned off area. He took pity on me, I think, because I was in a wheelchair (Just try tamping around a site in one of those). the museum at the site houses the largest collection of Roman sandals, etc in the UK. Good times. And when will you make a guest appearance on Time Team? Saw an interesting documentary on some excavations done at a small distance from Stone Henge.
