Just had a fantastic weekend at the Classical Association Conference at Newcastle University, but what a pace we worked at! There were some great papers - whoever said the classics are boring.

I read some of my Horace epodes,the ones that could be said to relate to empire, lived each day for the day and drank the wine! What a wise man Horace was, such good advice.

Now back down to earth. A backlog of emails, dirty laundry, shopping, and preparations for Easter.
