The site looks like a Roman Temple site. The atmosphere is glorious. You have to come down. I'd love you to dig. But just come and chill if you're on disability. LOL x

Sorry folks for late publication I fell asleep all evening. Not been sleeping. Too excited.

28-10-17 we are going to transform this hole we've made into a theatrical Reno art installation. Ticket and description of my vision available on Eventbrite. Links below. Book now. Once in a lifetime.

We filmed loads. Need to get used to editing and uploading quicker. Here's a little taster. Did you see us on BBC Northwest 6-30? If not its on Iplayer for the next 24 hours.

Our professional cameramen will be uploading daily excavation footage to www.thereno.live. Comment on www.thereno.live please. Make it all part of our archive. Plus watch BBC NorthWest tomorrow night.

A poem to commemorate our excavation by the Reno's Les Williams.

Met Tom in the Reno in 1977. Go married in 1978. Had Rachel 1979. 9th of October 2017, in 3 days time, I'm going to dig the Reno up. Because Tom's amazing mind expanded mine.

You know the story. There's a war in Troy. Some bright spark has the idea to build a wooden horse as a gift. We're gonna dig up The RENO.

Money is in place. Licences are in place. Go the heads up today. I'll be ringing all those who promised last time to make up the team. Fucking hell. It's really happening. 

Sorry. There is a silver lining though.
