I really have no historical background other than the things that I learned at school. I have discovered that I enjoy all things historical much more now that I am a grown up! It’s much more interesting when you are motivated by a genuine curiosity than when you are learning because you have to.
I live in a rapidly growing village in the middle of Lincolnshire, with my wonderful husband, my adorable son and my two large crossbreed dogs. I trained as a nurse but gave it up as a bad idea when I realised that the NHS was terminally ill. I now work as a private nurse in the community.
In my spare time I am a florist, mainly doing weddings, but I have been known to do Christenings, dedications and a few flower festivals.
Time Team has long been essential viewing in our house, but having only recently been internet connected, I have only just discovered the joys of the TT forum. Long may it reign!!!
Special Interest Areas
I really enjoy Roman and medieval periods. My special interests are the role of women throughout history, but especially in WW1 and the role of religion in history.
