Hi, chaps,
Sorry I've suddenly posted a string of messages; I've been away a lot recently, sometimes filming. I did "Bog Bodies" for the BBC, which will air here on Jan. 20th, 2006 - you may well get that in the States. I'm the spear specialist in it. I also did an ad. for Tetley's beer, which re-creates the opening scene from "Gladiator". You probably won't be able to spot me, although I'll be cybernetically reproduced about 20 times, unless they keep the bit where I wave to camera (you had to be there...). They never did give us any free samples!
Seriously, though, I have just the one grant of £250 for overseas travellers. What I hope to do is split it to offset the costs of two or three people, rather than pay the costs of just one. However, I have no idea of what it costs to get here from, say, the States, so, if £250 (about $400 [?])
would only cover part of your costs, apply. This applies to students or re-enactors.
I was very sorry to hear about Gioi getting taken for a Muslim and treated with suspicion, I'd heard from other sources that it was bad in the States. I think we've had some cases of it here, too, although many of the victims of the London bombings were Muslims. Keep the beard, Gioi, and to hell with them.
