I'm taking a leisurely break from the Twitter onslaught until 2019, but hope you'll forgive me dropping momentarily back in to say: I'd be v. grateful if you'd watch the Christmas Special of #InsertNameHere tonight on BBC 2 at 10pm: laughter + history radiotimes.com/tv-programme/…

#ChristmasCovered #ChristmasCloth #EarlyMedieval #LoveIrishResearch #UCD Day seventeen: Staying in the 7th century, seasons greeting to the lady of Cloonshannagh Bog. Found with 100 pieces of 2/1 twill cloth with tufts of pile yarn at regular intervals. An Irish shaggy mantle?

New exhibition @EH_Stonehenge Visitor Centre - featuring objects from us, @SalisburyMuseum and the @britishmuseum. A perfect excuse for a weekend in Wiltshire to explore our museums and archaeological sites! @VisitWiltshire #timeforwiltshire xitter.gq/EnglishHeritage/status…
Replying to @EnglishHeritage
Among the amazing objects in our new exhibition is this early Neolithic stone axe made from Lake District rock. ⛰️ It was polished over many hundreds of hours and passed from hand to hand on its 200-mile journey to Wiltshire. 🤝 Thanks to @WiltshireMuseum for this loan.
The ATC have our History@Work weekend on the 27th-28th October 2018. We have lots of tasks to complete around the site and would love you to visit us and see how we maintain the site using techniques and tools used by our ancestors for thousands of years. ancienttechnologycentre.com/…

@CrickCrackClub I loved the Greek myths tonight. I've always felt that fate and I have a good understanding.
