Just got back from hiking Hadrian’s Wall and what a great experience! Amazing weather and we booked a day with a local #historian to show us around some of the #Roman forts. #history #england #briton

Also, the beach at #Tynemouth is not to be missed!

#Celtic #MythologyMonday: `The eating of some animals was generally forbidden. Caesar said that the #Britons would not kill nor eat hare, hen, or goose. Yet such taboo beasts could, upon certain occasions, be sacrificed. There is evidence that the #Briton queen
#Boudicca sacrificed a hare to divine her people’s future.`

@ciwf @johnmurrays @ChrisGPackham @MeganMcCubbin The hare. So much mythology around this beautiful animal - it always feels like a blessing to see one.
