You may recall my previous posts about the CALCH project (see here) – the fieldwork during which it snowed, blew a gale and threatened to leave us all with hyperthermia – and we’re back up at the fantastic site over the next few days. Here’s a rare photograph of sunshine during the CALCH project…
I’ve been published! Wrote a book review for Exarc Journal and it’s just been put up. This is a happy day!

Feedback always welcome!

The first thing I can suggest when setting up your blog is think; think about your genre, think about your blog URL and think about your title – make sure that those three things make sense and you’ll be off to a flying start!
Carreg Cennen Castle, the subject of many of my fond childhood memories, is a superb example of using topography as a natural defence. The castle perches at the top of a prominent 300m high limestone outcrop and is spectacular from any viewpoint (for more pictures of the castle click here), and don’t forget the fantastic tunnel which disappears meters beneath the castle!
Thank you all for your visits and I appreciate every comment you’ve left :)
Hope you’ve enjoyed reading my posts and thoughts, will be adding more articles very soon along with a WordPress tips section and the Archaeological Music bit!
Here’s to another 5,000 views!!

'And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above '
Well, this is a first; I’ve been featured on someone else’s blog! It’s not massive, just a little career interview on Archaeology Resource.
