Romans! Digging! Rain!

Well, my dear, have you heard?  I'm in Northumbria, near to Hadrian's  Wall, at Vindolanda ready to begin digging tomorrow morning.

It's raining very hard, the temperature is low, the earth will be very wet and heavy.....but we are expecting to find lots of lovely things...of course, I hope it'll be jewellery, possibly shoes and a classy piece of pottery would be wonderful!

Will definitely need my wooly hat....though I have a very useful and pretty one for when the sun shines!

Will tell you more later on this week.

About Me

Hello, my dears. I'm Clare, a discerning woman who enjoys all aspects of life from the grand and dressy to the muddy and messy! I like to laugh, eat cake and drink champagne. My luxury, if I was cast away on a desert island, would be an endless supply of Earl Grey tea and pillow! I know that's two things but I can't do without either. I always need to find new challenges so, at the moment, it's improving my French to a high level of fluency and understanding. If money were no object, I'd order a couture Chanel jacket - and then find the perfect little hat go go with it. (I also have a 'thing' about hats - hence the cartoon!)
