I suppose I'd better ask a question:
What modern day place was named Lactodorum by the Romans?
edited because I've got very fat fingers today and keep hitting multiple buttonsd!
Ha - is there anybody that hasn't looked this up over the past few years????
Towcester....pronounced Toaster??? :lol:

Badabing....
OK - staying with the theme - what was discovered in Eckington late last year? :lol: :lol:
pre-post editing to add, that's Eckington the place..!!!
Complete guess - Some treasure trove hoard?
On the right lines - but unfortunately wrong......
OK - let's speed it up......
It was Roman, and it wasn't treasure or a building
surely it's the remains of a brewery :lol:
To speed this up and stop it stagnating as much as the quiz on the other forum I'm calling question setters perogative and giving the ding to Mrs B (Sorry Matt).
The item found in Eckington last year was a dead Roman soldier (how he managed to review all those caches and keep that quiet is beyond me).
It may well have been a Roman brewery that lead to his demise - but they haven't found it yet if it was........
Mrs B...??? Helloooooooo...????????

In the absence of the question setter I have taken it upon myself to check the answer and can confirm that StickBouncer is correct.
So over to StickBouncer for the next question. :lol:
Where is the worlds largest collection of bladder stone kept?

Failures are finger posts on the road to achievement.
I thought I had it wrong though, not using the correct formatting(completely missing the year), so its got to be Stuart who gets to set the next question (copping out as can't think of one and busy trying new roms on my phone )
Over to you then Stuart.

The way we usually work is that the person who gets the right answer sets the next question !! But you have set a hard one - no good to me
as I know nothing about feetball !!
Si vis pacem para bellum
I know very little about footie, so I'll go back to my youth and guess the Leeds Goalies from the 70's Gary Sprake (who I know was the Wales goalie) and David Harvey (not sure if he was ever International).
I also don't know much about football, so I'm guessing Gazza and George Best (see, I said I didn't know much )
