Nice!My mother-in-law has sent me an unexpected prezzie. lt’s almost as if she knows me:
I bet you two are the life and soul of any party....a cracking presentation on gendering in the study of mortuary evidence.
we certainly were!I bet you two are the life and soul of any party.

Er... what does that mean? (for I am a pandacracker of very little Brain)gendering in the study of mortuary evidence
it was about the biases any archaeologist brings to their work. Mortuary evidence is one of the two largest data sets we have to work on, so that's why it was selected - and it cuts across all cultures. Got to do something with the bodies unless you really do just leave them where they fall.Er... what does that mean? (for I am a pandacracker of very little Brain)
Oh, yes. Very interesting.Does that make sense @pandacracker
I have a tiny SAK with an incredibly sharp blade, I've cut myself with it.l was trimming some dead, dry skin from the end of my thumb using my Swiss Army Knife when l saw a tiny amount of blood, and realised l’d nicked myself without feeling so much as a twinge.
Unwhinge? Damn, l can sharpen a knife!
(Or l’ve contracted leprosy).

Yeah, he's clearly a knife nut. Probably has a wall rack stuffed with offensive weapons like that.Police appeal - have you seen this man? If so, please get in contact - do not approach.

Me too! Not often I'm called a civilised creature but I'll take it when it's offered.
l fail to see how any civilised creature can survive from day to day without an SAK.

I was desperate to go to York and study with Philip Rahtz. Well worth it.That's wonderful Frideswide; I studied archaeology as a BSc but we didn't cover stuff like Field Archaeology.
Anyway: l have my first gym session of 2021 booked for this affy. lf l’m typing slowly (if at all) around dinner time, that’ll be why...Today is the day that England reopens, yay
If you prepare the surface correctly and use a good under coat it should be good, personally i do like it, but each to his ownImmersed in my DIY spasm and needing encouragement, I was sceptical about the One-Coat gloss paint, which I found in my store. If it was any good, why did I not remember it? Taking the lid off was not entirely reassuring. On the bright side, there was plenty of it; had I used it at all?
It had curdled somewhat but the tin gave me gruff advice not to mix it; I was soon, gingerly, pasting its brilliant white phlegm onto my door-frame. See how it goes, eh?
Providing it dries - and it seems to be doing - the answer will be splendidly! Better, by far, than I had anticipated. That little investment of ten years ago may serve to cover the rest of the house, in a season when there is more time than money!![]()
