Did a wee in Dirac's toilet
I'm really into the iron age to roman to saxon transition in the UK, especially the Dobunni mentioned up thread. Quite a big fan of the theory that bronze age boundaries and customs lived on into the Dobunni, who then persisted past the romans becoming (part of?) the Hwicce and the whole Mercia thing. Given some of their boundaries survive to this day, especially in diocese, are there some boundaries we have on maps today that have survived since the bronze age?
Also got a decent interest in the english civil war, and a huge interest in the nazis. Bascially from the stance that shit can go very wrong very quickly very close to home, and is very likely to again unless we learn from what happened at times like these. I went to Munich a few weeks ago and went on a walking tour of Nazi history there. The guide kept asking us questions, and eventually told me I was banned from answering any more so as to let other people have a go.
