Perhaps a new section for Paul could be set up... don't take it personally
It seemed to me like a perfectly reasonable offer, which we could have said thanks but owing to the nature of the site... blah blah... but nope... a simple "thanks but.." would have sufficed...
SO the serious question of Pres in Situ / Plough damage, settings, long term project goals etc etc... public opinion/perception, agendas and contracts, consultancy and politics...
I am already wanting to go to Thornborough before the BAJR conference... any archaeologists willing to work with me, and aid in the understanding and documentation of non metallic ...
however... the real issue, which Paul is quite right to ask, is attitude to sites which are threatened by plough damage and the best way to mitigate.
I would like to hear Paul's views on this topic, as I honestly think it would be worth listening to... over to you Paul... I ealise it might take a bit to gather info... but I would like to hear your suggestions - and as we are on Thornbo... what would you go for here. (and no this is a serious non ironic/sarcastic request)
Another day another WSI?
