I have just read Simon Scarrow's latest book of the adventures of Cato and Macro. It starts in AD60 with Macro as chief magistrate in Colchester. It finishes with Cato in charge of an auxiliary cohort on Anglesey and Macro beside the burning temple. The last paragraph has a messenger arriving at Anglesey from London after only six days. Suetonius orders the cavalry to ride to London. It is June AD 61.
