one day to go ...


thursday night and preparations for tomorrow have been slightly delayed by a) having to go to work and b) having to go to a reception after work ...

work today consisted of a meeting of the York Bones Forum (YBF) ... experts had come to York from all around the country to report on their researches into human remains from York ...

interesting highlights include the results of the Roman York Diaspora project ... analysis of strontium oxygen isotopes reveal that the population of Roman York was a very diverse place - africans, egyptians, eastern europeans ...

at a time when one can see BNP posters in windows saying " British people first ..." it makes you think about what it means to be British ...

so now off to wrap the blue jugs in preparation for the long journey south ....

andiamo!
