The Reed foundation will double any donation made to the Wilder Whitelee fund this week

hm... as I do love accents (German and English)...

British Drama League - The #Northumberland #AccentSpoken by Roland Lishman (Tyneside)

A beautifully carved sandstone relief which depicts a naked male figure holding a spear stood in front of a horse/donkey has been uncovered during the annual excavations at the #Roman fort of Vindolanda near #Hadrian's Wall in #Northumberland. The complete stone measuring 160mm by 315mm would have originally been fitted into a recess.

The #stone was #uncovered on 20th May, only inches under the topsoil by two Vindolanda volunteers from Newcastle, who have both been making their annual pilgrimage to assist with the excavations for over 15 years.
