I'm surprised my timeline wasn't ABLAZE with a highly contentious history answer in House of Games today. What is your definition of "when the Romans were in Britain" and given there's no precise known end date why was it exactly 367 years?

Everything about this visit has been good apart from the journey home. (I am not home. And it wasn't that far to travel.) Still. Well worth it to meet the team and see the service's progress since first accredited.

I have really had a bad week on a number of fronts, but if you like me voted firmly for Punam, thank you. I really wanted to see her through. The evening has turned brighter.
