I know. British humor is absolutely lovely. 🤣

As an American metal detectorist it never ceases to humor me watching British historians being DISAPPOINTED by Victorian finds. 🤣 It really is true -Europeans think 100 miles is a long distance, and Americans think 100 years is a long time.

Our time sense is skewed because our country is so much younger! Nearly everywhere you go on the other side of the world has history going back at least 1000 years,and in England especially great sites are built over or found in farmers fields!

@@kimberlypatton205 Yup! And a lot of us (Americans) seem to think stuff like the Revolutionary War, the signing of the Declaration, even the Civl War, was "forever ago" like Biblical or something, LOL ! No, on the grand scale it was just yesterday. Of course, there have been Americans for thousands of years, but from a metal detectorist's point of view, there "wasn't." -Native Americans didn't use metal whatsoever.

That's right Phil,wave and smile at the lawyers LOL!

My great grandfather was a judge and was admitted as a barrister at Lincoln's Inn 150 years ago.

The way Phil goes on about beer, you would think it was illegal lol

What an honor it would be to meet any of the Time Team, but could listen to Phil talk about flints forever.

As a (now retired) career horticulturist, it never stops amazing me just how wonderful it must be to grow things on the island! It is a plant paradise and climate!Also Phil is my favorite!

Me too!

On my first trip to England, back in the late 1990s, I stayed with a friend who lived in the City in close proximity to these law courts and related buildings. I remember passing a (judicial) wig shop as I meandered around. At one point I wandered all over this area, not so much lost as curious. I don’t think it’s tourists would usually be hanging out so I remember being pretty much by myself going into various courtyards and in the square, etc.. I also found the Old Curiosity Ship.

I love that jug I miss the original time team members thank you for keeping me fixated all these years.

So your question actually made me pretty curious, they are pretty silly but I thought there has to be a symbolic reason for them so I looked it up, turns out the wig and robe is a sort of uniform which separates the law and its associated people (the lawers and judges) and the people being brought up in front of or against the law. But I personally think it's more about tradition now than anything. Good question 😊

A friend used to have a lovely little narrow brick townhouse in St. Albans. The next street over was indeed Tudor but had been covered by Victorian facades. The facades had all been torn off to show the post and beam structure. My friend got her home after the previous owner died after falling down the very steep narrow stairs. The lovely back garden was shared with a neighbor.

I always wonder how older buildings get buried 2-4 feet under the newer ones. Do they sink? Do people just pour a load of dirt over them?

It just doesn't work like that. The dye can't go into the roots from the tree it would have to be spayed all over the ground and it could take God knows how long for it to be taken up by roots and geophysics equipment can't pick up any sort of dye, it can only very roughly see large dense objects or varying densities.
