    Professional archaeologist since 1992. Worked in NW England and all over Ireland. Eligible to hold an excavation licence in both ROI and NI. Over 70 licences held to date. Excavated over 25 Fulachta fiadh - not as boring as you'd think!

    Recently unemployed for only the 2nd time in 5 years. :confused: Setting up a partnership with the missus :)

    I heard that Archaeology was boring and quite tough in UCD. I study Greek and Roman Civilisation and History and regret not taking up Archaeology. In Greek and Roman I take any class I can on Archaeology, I enjoy reading up on the excavations in Pompeii/Herculaneum and the Greek Heroic Age, Mycenae/Tiryns/Pylos/Troy and the Greek dark ages. Its not that big a regret though as I get to feed my inner Archaeologist.

    I've heard loads of good things about the course, and I loved classics for leaving cert, along with anything of an ancient nature...

    My advice is to see what the result is at 7pm (or something) on Friday, and trowelled post that as the final decision. If it's a tie, toss a coin. Trowelled, you've been the organiser, so I reckon you get to do the coin toss!

    My two cents anyway.

    You can use the two cents in the coin toss if you like. :D
