What has happened on site since the 9th

[Pam]

Whaaaat ?? Did I say sumfink wrong then ??


Mutter, mutter ..... I thought you'd appreciate the publicity and a few friendly faces in the audience but whatever ....mutter mutter !




PS. I was interviewed on the radio on Wednesday but 'forgot' to tell anyone ..... ;D

I think you are being a bit hard on Pam here it was on the web site for all to see, I for one had put it in my diary.

BTW There was some talk of reopening St. Saviorgate next summer has that gone by the board, with the big new excavation starting up?

Don't worry about it Keith - Toby seems to prefer to hide his light under a bushel whereas I prefer not to let him ! So its all just a bit of friendly banter really (I hope!) !

As I said I was going to attend (sans heckling and tomatoes of course ) but I am doing some temp work at the Ice Cream Alliance Exhibition in Harrogate (and hoping for some free samples !)....

Sorry I should have put a smiley in my post, I realised it was pretty light hearted, as was my comment. It just goes to show how misunderstandings can start in posts or emails though.

I went to Toby's talk today, and not to spare his blushes he did a great job , I don't know why he is so shy of publicity he is a very good public speaker. It was a talk on steroids as he only had 1/2 hour to get a lot of material across, and i suspect he might have liked a bit more time. At any rate what seemed to me at the time of the dig to be a complete jumble now makes a lot more sense. I hope that at some time he can give the talk at a more leisurely pace and that some of you can see it (maybe a webcast or something).

a webcast would be good, hear that Toby... we want to see u speak!!

[guitarmanrich]

Any talk by Toby is a talk on steroids

[Toby]

Rick - I don't know what you mean?!?!?! Everything is always nice and steady away (with a little energy from our friends at coca-cola).

Keith - Thank you for the nice comments. Yes it was a bit of a rush, especially as I had not practiced for timings. The FoYAT audience is varied and it is difficult to get through to everybody, but the other day seemed to go well. We found so much archaeology over the summer it made it easy to talk about stuff.

Webcast - no chance!.......... or mybe we could do some stuff with teh new site like that?

Toby,
That's a great idea!
Webcasts or podcasts of YAT talks placed on the website for the benefit of those unable to attend. And if this is a wishlist, given the duration and size of the dig, how about a webcam or two on the 'H' site so peple can see what's going on.

Hooroo. Paul

Being that I am a frillion miles away, I think the cam idea would be really neat. I'd like to see what changes how!

[Toby]

The webcam thing has been looked at a lot of times.... but, there is just too much opportunity for mischief. I will try to make picture updates more regular.
