n

don't say i didn't warn you

bearing in mind what follows

i couldn't help but see the funny side

when the lovely Helen at Justalittlepeek
awarded me the lovely blog award.

Now I have to nominate 15 lovely blogs

that I have recently discovered.

I'll get back to you on that one

when I've had a scrummage around.

here's the pictures from

the treatment of dead enemies section

at

The Pitt Rivers Museum

more to follow........

tradition often seems insane to me and I was fascinated

to discover that Oxford University students comply and attend

their exams in these rediculous outfits.

no doubt when they've finished the go for a punt

and then cycle home

but the best thing about Oxford is the dimly lit

Pitt Rivers Museum

where, if you can put to one side your discomfort about our disgraceful colonial past,

you can spend hours shining your wind up torch (supplied)

into cabinets (yes I said cabinets )

full of fascinating artifacts from all over the world.

From writing tools, to baby baskets

and surgical instuments to textiles

a great place to visit for anyone interested in

human beings

.....more to follow including images from the gruesome 'treatment of dead enemies' section which fascinated me but might scare the pants off others......
