Essays
The past four weeks have been spent writing essays for my archaeology course. The final one went in this afternoon, two days early!
I had to let the activity consume my time wholly and I've spent as many hours as possible in the library. Furthermore, I managed to refer to my great uncle's book about monasteries.
Here is the cosy den of learning that I'm now free from for a few weeks.

Bargate
Item One:
1000 leaflets waiting to be delivered, advertising what's on at the Bargate Monument Gallery up to the end of 2009. The gallery that is actually in the actual Bargate in Southampton. They're all over town now.
Item Two:
The "stroke me, pick me up, take me home" element in the design of the leaflet.
Item Three:
Further handbills for a live art event that will come to the Bargate in August.
An addition to the list of links:
