I used to be a Mesolithic archaeologist. In 2020 Covid19 hit me, crashed me. My pleas for help continue. Year 5 chronic #LongCovid, now bed-bound, unable to walk, no income or support, bankruptcy close, house repossession on horizon. Please help and share if you can 🆘 microburin.com/2024/09/06/l...

Fabulous 15min video by @adamibbotson.bsky.social about the internationally important #Neolithic henges in North Yorkshire, England - and a link to our Crowdfunder campaign (Thornborough #Archaeology Group). Enjoy & please donate if you can for #CommunityArchaeology www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_R0...

This is what it's like folks, over 6yrs in now. The medical glazed looks. My hospital visit last month - nobody wearing a face mask, no air filters, Covid19 is still rampant, everybody in denial? And then you add the "but you sound OK, you look fine". #LongCOVID

Ruin a song by adding "in my pants" "Waterloo In My Pants" (1974)

Hancock, amongst others, should be serving jail time. Serial liar. He killed people.

£700 target exceeded in a week! Thank you. The crowdfunder will stay open another week if you can help. Recording Yorkshire’s later Neolithic henges #Archaeology

Not having a good time. Six and a half years of. This helps. Hence night owl in a dark sky, chronic #LongCOVID. www.facebook.com/reel/2980955...

This just feels like the cheer-me-up I need through the dark days and nights. Voices in my head.

Some new additions to @pottedhistory.bsky.social 's range of Roman replicas. I love them.

Because Putin has all the Epstein filth & much more. It's not rocket science. It's why they're both at war. Beyond dementia.

Anything to avoid the Epstein Files release. Waiting a year.

So the BBC changed, or clarified, their headline. Good. They miss that he had numerous extramarital affairs. "Jeffrey Archer: successful novelist, disgraced <^Tory> politician and convicted liar".

Hear hear.

BREATH-TAKING!!

No sentient adults present. Simply prejudice, self-interest, and a lack of collective vision. Terribly sad.

Add in please #LongCOVID. It's equally as horrifying. From neglect to proposed therapies that do severe harm. There's no systematic medical-side training, simply a lottery, and no meds as yet, simpy ongoing research. Meanwhile, or lives switched off, disabled, and politically ignored.

#ThrowbackThursday #Archaeology to 2014 and the Street House Before The Saxons temp exhibition at Kirkleatham Museum with mum, and me on a video. It was the month my ex walked away after 15yrs (to make more money in Dubai), so a rough time. The Saxon Princess exhibition is permanent.

🪨 What has been uncovered at Street House? Dr Steve Sherlock returns to Land of Iron to reveal the latest from the 2026 excavations, including a huge Neolithic–Early Bronze Age cairn, 150+ flint tools and new Roman finds. 📅 16 Oct | 6.30pm | £5 buff.ly/W3Q3K5j

@davidpetts1.bsky.social does the handle bottom look like your wossit from Binchester?

This looks excellent (Thu 12 Nov, York) #Archaeology FREE, also online. www.sal.org.uk/events/melso...

This is such a sorry & infuriating tale. Via @davidpetts1.bsky.social from another place. www.sarsen.org/2026/09/hist...

There's something wrong with Trump's hands, yes? IV-don't know.

2/2 such as myself and Geoff Harris (the tall dude in the video) and some amazing professional advisers. Please check out thornboroughag.org for more info if you would like to get involved.

Absolutely shameful, and nobody charged after 9 years. 72 dead.

Rubbish. Utterly. And insulting.

Al punto. Very good.

The Roman Pottery workshops ⚱️🏺 Samian Ware and Barbotine Hunt Cups, at Magna Roman Fort, are filling up fast. If you're thinking about joining us, don't wait too long! #AncientBluesky.

Intellectual and humanitarian capacity of vegetables. And that's pushing it, to a soup.

Somebody needs to have a very careful self-awareness think about themselves and decision-making. Millions of us are still disabled, barely functioning, six years later, zero help or support. Many more think SARS-CoV-2 Covid19 is all behind us. *The pandemic is NOT over*. I feel insulted. #LongCOVID

Lunchtime today St Mary's Hospital, Paddington, abdom ultrasound. 6yrs+ #LongCOVID. Amongst many ongoing symptoms, GI (gastrics) continue to worsen (blood results spooked GP). U/S is fine. Trauma is getting there & back. OBSERVATION: *Nobody* medics, staff nor public wearing a mask, except me! 😷

A Decaying Relationship? Stratigraphic Literacy in UK archaeology by Dr. Ellen Green is now published on BAJR.  We would like to thank her for the work she did investigating the stratigraphic literacy of archaeologists within the UK. www.bajr.org/wp-content/u...

1 min to go for a last #FindsFriday #Archaeology call. Bank hols digging at Windmill House, Thornborough Arch Group, N Yorks. A bit of flint (& features). I think edge of a Meso/Early Neo core, maybe to correct the knapping angles. thornboroughag.org (Also on Fb).

Old enough to remember Gillam's work and his Roman pottery articles in Arch Aeliana, especially for Hadrian's Wall. Do we have a new epithet for C4th "Huntcliff ware". E.g. "like blackened hobnobs", or Crambeck as "malted milk biscuits" :-)

Make your favourite film(s) sound boring as possible without giving away the title: Running around an upside-down ship at Christmas after a big wave.

@bsky.app UK calling. Since early hrs logins using Chrome (Google) on laptop fail with error TypeError: URL.canParse is not a function Firefox seems to be OK (but don't like it). Passwd reset doesn't resolve.

New Prehistoric Artefact Teaching Collection for Thornborough Archaeology Group (North Yorkshire) An exciting new addition to our displays: a remarkable collection of flint, stone, pottery and metal artefacts spanning the Mesolithic, Neolithic and Bronze Age. thornboroughag.org/new-prehisto...

Exact day when the young lady at local Tesco, looking feverish unwell, coughed straight in my face. No hand, elbow, distancing. When we were told "wash yer hands". A super-spreader. 6 years later? Housebound, disabled, my life is dead. No treatments or cure, no help or support. Millions of us.

Entirely enthralling.
