Way Back Wednesday: Caption This! (23rd October 24)
Added 2024-10-23 15:35:33 +0000 UTCJust for fun, it's time again for our new weekly caption competition.
Every Wednesday, we're dipping into the archives to share a photo of the team in action. This week, we've burrowed back further into the past.
Please share your most creative captions in the comments below, as always, keeping it clean and appropriate! Extra marks if you can name the dig this was from.
COMING SOON
We have lots of exciting Patreon exclusives on the way, including a very special follow-up on the dog tag discovered at this year's 'Digging Band of Brothers' excavation at Aldbourne, plus more insights from Norton Disney. Watch this space for further details.
