Did someone mention roof tiles? 8)
What is this Pyrros-Theban episode? Please illuminate! I'm collecting literary/ancient references to brick and tile of all eras (got some nice ones from Dickens & Gaskell). Tiles are a suitable occuption for a lay-dee . Roof tiles got Ben Hur into a great deal of trouble ... :twisted:
Arthes, dear girl, at 74 there's no way I'm doing any athletics. I do enjoy annoying Roman soldiers though - I particularly like dampening their spirits from a great height :wink:
