Ah.... Uncle BAJR is a clever BAJR. Perhaps.
There is more to this than a simple Competition. Yes it is a bit of fun, BUT (well you will just have to wait)
There is a real toolroll. custom built. go faster stripe. But lets remember what it is about. It is about those of us who still plunge hands into soil. Who do negative Evals or scrape 19th century cobbles clean, or stand in snow as a cable trench is excavated across an area of no known achaeology. or excavate a castle, a hillfort a hut circle a roman farm... the ones who make the archaeology happen.
Ahem... Dino is all man (from where I am standing)
Tom, you are gonna get your knackers crushed !!
Chiz... I would expect no less. But I love a winner
Kevin... oh go on !! You have just given me an idea... I have images of Toneeeeee - (for we will all vote for him!) surrounded by sons(and daughters) of the soil armed with mattock handles
