Hopefully they won't quote Bob's more personal letters in the published findings.

Bobicus Maximus was Governor of Britain and promised to build, 'The Wall' across Britain and make the Picts pay for it.  :applause:

We had to include a trading post where we could exchange  haggis's (haggii?) for Newcastle Broon (Brown Ale).
