The End

Here it is!

The end of a journey

The end of a novel

The end of this blogathon

Six weeks have gone by in a flash

The summer dig is done

Loss and love. Discovery and understanding

Have a cold beer. You deserve it

Chapter 52

Small Finds

The story is complete. Or has it just begun?

On the tab Ch 51 & 52 above

Go well

Sunday

After all the tumult of yesterday, I think we deserve something quiet

Time to reflect

Time to recollect

Time to think

On Sunday morning, the Arnot and Gadnall families go to church in the village

Elyssia is preaching

It's her first time

Complete with broken arm

You have to feel for the kid 

Small Finds

Chapter 51

Not quite the end, but almost

A two chapter Friday

It is all coming to a head

A press conference

The end of dig concert

Joshua Williams has a theory

Elyssia Gadnall listens

It is the last Friday

Small Finds - a novel

Some small finds are bigger than others

Some small finds are huge

Saturday morning

The last week of the dig

What has to be done, has to be done now

Ceramic building material

He does not need this

No

He does not need this

Sunday 25th July

 It's 2010

There is one day difference in the dates

Today is Sunday 24th July 2022

But then, in 2010, Sunday was 25th July 

Close, eh?

Small Finds, the novel

Things are not going too well, to be honest

Wednesday. A trip to Lydney

It's been a while

Well, two or three days 

Not much happens on an archaeological dig for most of the time

Apart from the scrape of trowels, sweeping and shovelling

But today is different

Today they have trip to see the Lydney Roman temple by the Severn Estuary

Mortimer Wheeler was there

And his wife

Or should I say, Tessa Verney Wheeler and her husband

Chapter 16 has the story

As much of it as you are going to get, anyway

See the Ch 16- tab above for more
