Mary Beard on BBC - Pompeii

[BarefootAcrossHotLegoPieces]

She is currently pretending to be a launderer treading cloth. Awesome!

She's just a little bit bonkers (in a good way)

The 3D map is really good.

I'm really enjoying it.

Ah, Pliny now...

DH says the laser scanner thing is about 30 grand's worth and the images take up a memory drive the size of Pluto.

I must be thick because I don't understand what was written on the wall in the brothel, she made out like it was obvious but dh and I both looked at each other confused (and I briefly did Latin at school !)

It said 'I fucked'.

Really enjoyed that programme. Such enthusiasm.

I'm guessing the bbc want the programme to be shown in schools

Thanks. We've rewatched it 5 times and still didn't get it
