Wasting money here...

I should probably tell you all that the badgers have been following me. There's a huge jawbone at the bottom of my fait and the people at the dig have been guessing what it belongs to since I uncovered it. So two of the guys come over to stare down at it and I say that one of the dig organizers thinks it's a horse, the other a cow and the other, a pig. One of the guys stares down at it and goes, 'No. It's really a badger. A honey badger. You'll find it's pot of honey down there soon. It crawled down there to get it and got stuck.' Never let it be said that we all don't have a sense of humour...

Also saw a stuffed badger at the natural history musuem here that I visited this weekend...

*giggles* So the badgers aren't just in the walls, they're in the ground as well, eh? ;)

And they're from the iron age as well

I really actually kind of read that as 'a horny badger.'

I really actually am kind of glad that there's an ocean or two between us.

Actually, there's a profusion of perverted and dirty minds on this dig. You can't say anything about your hole, bones or well, anything else without them perverting it.

:)Maybe that's prove you were destined to go on the dig...
Have you found anything other than animal bones so far?

[deralte.livejournal.com]

Yeah sure. Lots of pottery, metal slag, a piece of a fibulae (metal brouch), and half of a stone ball used for making wool thread.

[md-jess.livejournal.com]

Cool. Any pictures on the pottery?

[deralte.livejournal.com]

No, none of it's complete anyway. It's pretty boring black or red ware anyway. Nothing is very pretty right after you've dug it up from the earth.

Gah! Proof. I meant proof.

[deralte.livejournal.com]
