We've touched a little bit of Landscape Archaelogy through my work and it is a very interesting subject.  I might have a butchers at his book.

Hi tarnee - I should have thought of asking my English cousins to copy the programmes for me......
My 2 cousins who live on the Gold Coast - one cannot abide Coronation Street but the other has someone who faithfully tapes it for her year after year after........

[tarnee]

Hi tarnee - The cousin I am speaking of who loves C.St. left for a visit to the Old Country yesterday.  No doubt she will be getting her fill of it for the next month

Hi Emmeline,

My ex's leaves tomorrow, taking with him all the stuff l have found on his family to show his mother and hopes she can shed some more light. His side l do for the sake of my son's but he's not that into it. His 2nd wife they come from the (Fist Fleet) as they like to remind me.

Would mind a quick visit myself, but really no family left.

The BBC has a resposibility to its licence fee payers I suppose.  I remember a BBC weather forecaster once saying that the Met Office had complaints from viewers in northern France and Belgium who wanted to know why they did not include a weather forecast for their regions.  Pushing their luck?

Newspapers in those regions include TV listing of British channels.

I'm not sure whether all programs will be available on Broadband from the BBC one day.  If British people have to pay the licence fee how to they charge non-British people to see their output?  It's all about money and coyright.

Time Team......a wonderful programme.However,Health and Safety appears to have got to them.They seem to be wearing hard hats these days when they stand in trenches no more than ankle deep.Still, one never knows what may fall out of the sky!.

Hi Llwyd

I'd disagree with you about the trenches being only ankle deep.

Phil Harding was standing in a massive hole in the Buckingham Palace Gardens excavation looking for a canal.  It depends how deep the archeology is really.

Interesting link CU

I'm confused though, how can Mick be a Professor in Landscape Archaelogy and yet, according to Genresearch not hold any Archaelogy degree??

I've alway like Mick, he has a good habit of being able to bring Tony back down to earth and I love some of his jumpers.

Kerry,

A professor is a title bestowed on someone by the chancellor of a university.  It doesnt mean they hold any qualifications unfortunately.  Mick was I believe honoured with a honouary degree many years ago for his work in the field of Landscape archaeology which he was somewhat of a pioneer at the time
