    A bit of fun today on the Ray D'Arcy show when a plea was made to archaeologists to try and identify a pile of bones found in someone's garden (pictures provided).

    Nice to know that us archaeologists (and former archaeologists) still serve a useful purpose in these days of scanty employment ;)

    Great that they're looking for experts and raising the profile, but surely anyone could see that those bones are modern?
    The butcher's cuts are as clear as day.

    I just feel sorry for the amnesiac dog.

    You would think so...

    Must have been a slow news day?

    Anyway, it was entertaining and no harm done!

    The caller who found them thought they were human :rolleyes:
