Happy New Year




I would like to wish everyone a peaceful and enjoyable 2009.

I started this blog in March 2004 as a solo project but over the years it has become something of a joint project with Kat Newkirk, who has had her own problems recently, and over the last year Ben Morales-Correa has jumped in to help. We have become a very good team, for which my thanks and appreciation. Let's hope that 2009 produces some excellent Egyptology stories for us to report!

Any of the visitors to this blog who know me will know that the latter half of 2008 was a distinctly miserable time for my family. My mother died in late November after a long and painful illness, and my grandmother died a week later. I would just like to send, with my love, a broad but most sincere thank-you to everyone who sent and/or thought good wishes over the last couple of months. Truly appreciated.

- Happy New Year!
Hope that 2009 was not too horrible and that 2010 will be an improvement. The good thing is as you get older the years go by faster and that's good. Happy New Year!...
