“Training as a Roman legionary after school hours: strengthens body and mind, forms team values, prepares you to invade any wayward province or barbarian territory.”

"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867
