Top fun- my wife found me doing this and went on her way mumbling "how sad". She's now just passed by saying-"you're not still doing your silly crossword"
It was all worth it-I got 9%- result!! ( I got a book about Hadrian upstairs, perhaps I'd better read it.)

Not to mention spending the summer of 1981 on an excavation on his silly wall...

I thought about doing it but that period of Roman history has to be one of the dullest periods :evil:

11% here. Feel like an undrilled barbarian missing a CMT test within 6" of the enemy. :roll:

Its a curse-possibly Chinese-" may you live in interesting times..."

Romans, Schmomans.

6%, which was entirely down to my knowing the answer to one 'general knowledge' question.

I was upset that 'Wall' wasn't an answer.
