that’s a good one, he must be a REALLY serious member of ‘Tunnel Soc.’ {now bookmarked in my london heritage section} go and check out one of the very first books exposuring the work of our spooks in the early 70s: “Beneath the City Streets’ by Peter Laurie reprinted in the 80s I think. He had the low down on Down Street and Brompton Road used in WW2 and the secret government bunkers under Kingsway in Holborn. it’s amazing how many of the stations mentioned are close to me, or rather how all the stations close to me are mentioned! Holloway Road, Drayton Park/Finsbury Park, Highbury & Islington, York Road, Angel, South Kentish Town and more stations not much further away. if York Road gets re-opened with Kings Cross redevelopments then it will add a minute or two on to all my journeys.

Mick likes to travel. Good thing. He does it all the time! Apart from rushing around the country with TT, Mick has always lectured and attended conferences across the UK and abroad. I expect you know that he first met Tony Robinson when Tony signed up for one of Mick’s study tours to Santorini. (I kept meaning to go on one myself, but never did.)

And the minute Mick gets any free time he shoots off somewhere, often combining work and pleasure, (if the distinction makes any sense for a man who lives to work). He used a holiday in Crete to write Mick’s Archaeology.

The decision to edit this post was taken because of the number of complaints from existing members we have received about it The TTFF forum was set up for like minded viewers of Time team to share chat, humour and anything else about the programme as they see fit – It was not set up to carry on the detecting debate in the manner on the original TTF or on the other detecting fora and mailing lists that are available. Questioning the moderator on why it was done and then repeating the post is against the forum rules and the poster has now been deactivated (not deleted). This decision was not taken lightly –it was done because we want to keep this forum a friendly and positive place for our regular members to visit.
