A very old joke

A very old joke

Something from the Colchester Castle that’s a bit more light hearted than Rendition. I loved this face on an old Roman pot. Amazing how a wonderful little quip like this can both physically survive the thousands of years, while also having it’s cultural content can so obviously survive across all that human history and still make me smile.

So it’s my desktop photo at work at the moment :-).

    That would be wonderful – feel free to use the photos as long as you provide attribution. Something like “Photos by Nic McPhee – http://flickr.com/photos/nicmcphee/” would be swell.
