I’ve been a committed armchair archaeologist since series one of Time Team and glad to say my family now shares that interest also. Highlight for us, was meeting the team at the live dig in Canterbury. Think my interest developed from my love of history during my school days. Have had the notion to participate further within my local area and perhaps do a course or two but as yet have not found the time
I’m 32 married to Donna with 2 boys and stay in Paisley, near Glasgow, Scotland. My day job is as a Customer Service Manager with an electronics company, though thinking that a career change is nigh and would like to move into Computing/Web design. I have a great fascination for Roman and Medieval periods in particular never ceases to amaze me how much of an insight can be gained into the past from archaeology and the wealth of knowledge that can be gained by investigation.
My wife and I share an interest in genealogy and have been working away on our family trees which is proving a challenge. It’s fascinating and great fun to be able to record and trace your origins then be able to pass these onto relatives and family. My interests also include non-fiction historical Reading, Aviation, Computing and Travel when I get the chance, stayed in Australia as a teenager, hostelled round Europe and had six months working in Holland recently.
I enjoy taking part in the TT forum and chat which I’ve joined recently, great to share views and opinions as well as common interests and a lot of laughs with fellow forum members.
