Fun day teaching year 3s about #RomanBritain, with many recruited for the Legions... I got to take part in the Making Marvellous Mosaics session too - and made a mini Marcus! What do you think? Should I stick to the day job, or is there a possible career in mosaic making ahead?

It's #Victorians at Cadw Blaenavon Ironworks, with a fabulous site and lovely folks - including the delicious Ragged Victorians - it's well worth a visit!

Day two at Cadw #BlaenavonIronworks - a fab #WorldHeritageSite - with her Majesty, some of her soldiers to keep order...and the super #RaggedVictorians (who have been causing the very best sort of chaos). Yesterday was amazing, so I'm very much looking forward to today!

I am a very lucky sausage - not only do I deliver loads of school workshops, but I get to bring the past alive at amazing museums and fabulous historic sites across the country! Its #InternationalMuseumsDay today so please support your local museums - which is your favourite?

Almost ready to head to the Bosworth Battlefield tomorrow for a day of #Vikings with some histories and stories, shield walls and spears. From Lindisfarne to Stamford Bridge it should be a lot of fun!

Looking back over last year's #Tudor tournament at National Trust Ightham Mote in preparation for next month's outing at Cadw Laugharne Castle - note to self, make sure to break his spear early on, it is quite the advantage of reach!

Off to Leicester this weekend for the #Siege380 event...but what should I wear? Tis such an issue when one has a larger c17th wardrobe than a modern day one...

I'm at the King Richard III Centre for @upanatemhistory today. It's #ArmsAndArmour so a great chance to get hands on with late fifteenth century weapons and protection - and a good chance for me to check out the dents in my harness!
