Site visitors

I (GN) had my family visit site today. Magnus (3) who recently broke his arm came with his superhero cast and proceeded to jump all over the spoil heap, look menacing and received 50 tons of chocolate from Mable Beverly. Thanks Mable!!

Elliot my other son showed a worryingly high interest in archaeology collecting some great artefacts from the site spoil heaps and trench edge. We all then went to the Pictish café for some amazing black bean soup and a radiocarbon date slice. There were also some great colouring sheets at the café for the kids and lots of things to see and do there. Elliot also got some Pictish tattoos and Rhynie Dig rock - blueberry flavour that turns your tongue blue. And I bought a Rhynie Man t-shirt. All amazing. So in case you hadn't taken the hint - get yourself down there!!
