Loads of 'Family Man' sessions, including a whole day in a nursery for around 40 Dads and their children! I've done evening sessions at Once Brewed Youth Hostel, school groups at Segedunum and Roman Army Boot Camp at Arbeia Roman Fort.. Last Saturday Victor the Veteran was finally promoted and awarded some medals
There was even a brief moment where I was asked to impersonate the Emperor Hadrian! The event was Epiacum: ALSTON 200AD, a celebration of things Roman and Family Fun in Alston. Victor the Veteran was asked to ride the South Tynedale Railway chatting about life in the Roman Army as the train made it's way past the Fort of Epiacum (Whitley Castle). Perhaps I should have gone under the name of Titus the Tank Engine!!
As usual an Auxiliary with a camera doesn't really work, so I'm relying on others for some photos, including me launching a book - Hadrian and his Wall by Paul Frodsham.
Next weekend I'm off to Chilton Village Gala, to try my hand at a new activity - details will follow soon.
