I've had a huge interest in Romano-Celtic things for a long time and I lecture about it from time to time. You really need to go to Hadrian's Wall sometime if you haven't been :-) K and I would love to show you and N around, although I think I am more familiar with the forts around the Wall than he is. The re-built portions are interesting (one of my favorites is Vindolanda - http://www.cavazzi.com/roman-empire/tours/empire/vindolanda.html) and the museums at the ones that have just been excavated and not re-built are excellent. I have a huge collection of books on the Romans in Britain and have been toying with the idea of joining a reinactment group of that sort when I move to the UK (as if I'll have the time to do everything I want to do. O! To be independently wealthy!)

If you go over on a fianceé visa, you might!

Well, you've got a point there.

Ah! But here's the rub - I can't work over there while on a fianceé visa - nor am I allowed to do any volunteer work. So, no income = no hobbies. That's why I would prefer to get my marriage visa so that I can get a job immediately (or as soon as someone will hire me),

They won't even let you do volunteer work? Wonder what the reasoning is for that?

They don't want you to gain any skills or contacts that might be used in a job search. Isn't that *stupid*?
