New Festival website launched - danhull@britarch.ac.uk - 17th June 2009 "the map just shows how much is going on across England and Wales .. nice" It certainly does. There are also four events in Northern Ireland and five events in Scotland. Not many, but then there is (as you rightly say) Scottish Archaeology Month in September, and Archaeology Days in Northern Ireland this month, so some venues may understandably be saving their efforts for these events instead. There's information about both SAM and Archaeology Days here: http://festival.britarch.ac.uk/about/sam and here: http://festival.britarch.ac.uk/about/other New Festival website launched - BAJR Host - 17th June 2009 Thanks for the extra info... together the number of projects across the UK is impressive now... it would be good if 'them that are in power' take notice of all these events.. the public interest .. the potential benefits to community and education and start putting some real money and backing to archaeology. Not as a posh hobby, but as one more tool for creating a more inclusive and community minded Britian.! I know the CBA will be pushing this to the government - so who knows.. a bit of good news might help them? on the other hand I can see the 'Daily Mail' frothing response as well... spending money on archaeology when nurses are so badly paid.. etc. I have seen the benefits to a village or town of arhcaeology - with more ownership of history, less vandalism, skills learned, friends made, age groups meeting together etc... and a bit of healthy outside work as well! Constant development is the law of life, and a man who always tries to maintain his dogmas in order to appear consistent drives himself into a false position. Mohandas Gandhi New Festival website launched - historic building - 17th June 2009 Now I appreciate entirely that I have one of the worst computer systems on the planet at work, but the search for events button does not show up. It is possibly just that the web page is just bit too complex for slighly aged computer systems. New Festival website launched - danhull@britarch.ac.uk - 17th June 2009 Thanks historic building. This seems to be a problem only with Internet Explorer 6. We're working on a solution as we speak... New Festival website launched - BAJR Host - 17th June 2009 aaaaaaaaaaaaaarg the curse of IE6 and lower... have the same trouble myself... councils and the like have trouble getting the latest (use firefox I say!!) and also have the added bonus of often being blocked from Googlemaps (less common now) YouTube... Facebook etc.... lets not communicate with the public! Constant development is the law of life, and a man who always tries to maintain his dogmas in order to appear consistent drives himself into a false position. Mohandas Gandhi New Festival website launched - historic building - 17th June 2009 If it is at all helpful I am on IE version 6.0.3790.3959 with SP2 New Festival website launched - BAJR Host - 17th June 2009 say no more..... good luck Dan! Constant development is the law of life, and a man who always tries to maintain his dogmas in order to appear consistent drives himself into a false position. Mohandas Gandhi New Festival website launched - Gilraen - 18th June 2009 Is it me or is there nothing going on in Scotland? It is the Council for English Archaeology? New Festival website launched - BAJR Host - 18th June 2009 Ah... there are 5 events... :0) that means that if Scottish Archaeology Month has an event in Berwick, it is British archaceology too .. sorry... could not resist it... the google map could do with perhaps expand a bit to show the orkneys Constant development is the law of life, and a man who always tries to maintain his dogmas in order to appear consistent drives himself into a false position.
