Amazing! We went to see A Comedy of Errors there last year. It was amazing but I wish weโ€™d been down in the pit.

"This is a Classicists List not a political one."

A field of study is doomed when it surrenders its claim to be relevant to the real world, to how we live our lives in relation to other human beings, & cultivate mutual understanding. Isn't that the very point of the humanities?

I hope you do - well worth it, packed with some fantastic artefacts from Knossos and beyond.

One of the questions Iโ€™m asked most is about feedback and mentorship for nonfiction writers - well, Iโ€™m offering a new service via Hinterland. So, if youโ€™re a nonfiction writer in need of a close read of your manuscript or in search of a mentor to help develop your writing, check it out.

No! Even lazier - I cut the sprue up into strips and just paint them on that before attaching to the base.

They look super! I love painting a hazard stripe or two on my 40K IW. Really wished Iโ€™d painted my Legions Imp as Iron Warriors but I couldnโ€™t face painting tiny stripes at the timeโ€ฆ
