Me

I am a writer, publisher, and archaeologist who lives in Chirnside in the south-eastern corner of Scotland. I enjoy cycling around the Merse and flying over the Cheviots; so far I have managed not to get the two activities confused.

[Me and a few friends]This is me and a few friends, taken in Romania in 1987 on what was quaintly termed the Joint Expedition to the Roman Provinces of the Danube (JERPD: covering over 7000 miles, we visited Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania, and Yugoslavia). The photo was taken at Sarmizegetusa Regia, capital of the Dacian King Decebalus; it can only be reached by off-road vehicle, hence the presence of Gertrude (gone but not forgotten). My illustrious companions are (from left to right) Bill Griffiths, Peter Guest, Jon Coulston, Hazel Dodge, and Liviu Petculescu.
