Archaeologists believe they are on the cusp of shedding new light on the life of William Shakespeare – by digging up what may have been the playwright’s cesspit.
Experts have begun excavating the ruins of New Place, Shakespeare’s former home in Stratford-upon-Avon, which was demolished 250 years ago.
Although little remains of the property, the team, led by Birmingham Archaeology, believes it has identified a rubbish tip or cesspit used by the 16th century poet.
Fragments of pottery and broken clay pipe have already been retrieved from a muddy hole on the site, which they claim could yield some of the most significant discoveries about Shakespeare in decades.
The dig focuses on three areas of the property, which Shakespeare bought in 1597 when he returned to his home town from London having achieved fame – including the so-called knot garden at the rear of the building.

“Out, out damned spot.”

You can get more of your discontinued patterns at Replacements.com. Wonderful guys, great company, great prices. And if, like me, you have some other old patterns you don’t know the name of, you can send them a picture or two and they’ll identify it for you, then search nationwide to find more of it.
My co-workers are looking at me strangely as I keep re-reading this - it's as hysterical on the tenth time as it was the first.
ping. Pay particular attention to post 19, but you have to work up to it.
Ah...it's my pleasure to entertain.
