Hmmn. So both Preston and Caen share a certain similarity – or as Lancastrians would call it, ‘I don’t know what.’
But it is a different country; it’s in the eurozone; there are different methods; legislative framework; and commercial environment. Realistically, you have to get a plane to get there and back, and on that money you can afford a flight every 2 months. I know because I’ve done it.
One of the main reasons given for the vastly inflated wages in the financial sector is because organisations need to attract the best, and with quality people at the helm, they get better quality business through the door.
Why does this logic not also work with archaeology?
This is the skint leading the skint, and it is to all our detriment.
