So as we close into the final week of the excavation the weather finally decides to come around to a more workable condition. Just as well really as the last week is always quite a tense time, with the end looming and work still to be carried out.
Third week of work finally over. I say week of work but if truth be told it was only really half a week of work. I missed Monday as after being in Bangor for the weekend here seemed like little point driving to site for a day of work before heading back to Bangor again for graduation on the Tuesday so instead I stayed in town and caught up with the parents over dinner.
Thats right guys, again this year I have managed to secure myself a place on the Meillionydd dig for a second year. Again I shall cover the happening of the dig in all their glory here on Zombie Dinosaurs, though hopefully a little more comprehensively this year. Also the blog will focus more on the dig and probably less on the social and living aspects of the experience though I am sure they will get a mention.
Now I’ve arrived back home and had a few days to unpack and relax a bit, I guess it is probably time to make my first ever excavation related review. We’ll take it from the bottom, start simple and work up. I’ll detail the build up, the dig itself, the related events in the local “Archaeology festival” and the living experience. There will also be an accompanying photo album hopefully. This isn’t going to be a short one that’s fair to say..
