I know I wasn’t going to post anything till the book’s done but this is too good to ignore.  In case anyone’s missed it on the news – the wondrous Google Street View is now available for Pompeii. Hooray!

I haven’t explored all of it yet (there is a book to finish) but did discover a very interesting man with half a head and no body somewhere near the amphitheatre entrance. Perhaps the ghost of one of the victims.
