Finally caught Great North Museum: Hancock Myth Quest Exhibition. 3yr olds not the target audience but a great concept, with the main exhibition, and then the quest across the rest of the museum. Nice to see Coventina's Well material lent by English Heritage to showcase a local deity

The wonderful archaeology museum at Sami, Kefalonia. Very nicely displayed material from the ancient cities of Same and Panormos.

Remains of a German gun emplacement on the North coast of Kephalonia. The underground ammunition store is particularly impressive.

Loved this little gaming board spotted yesterday when visiting Andrew Parkin in his store. Maybe 10cm square(ish).

Really pleased with the exhibition at Corbridge on dodecahedra and their possible uses! Pop along and see it if you can, it's here til May. Thanks to SMA for funding, and Great North Museum: Hancock NewcastleAntiquaries and Newcastle Castle for lending items! English Heritage
