Took a minute to relax in a 1000 year old gun turret last weekend. The wall was built across the northern end of the Roman Empire in 1050 to repel the "barbarians" to the north (today, we call them Scotsmen). I'm guessing that the centurions who manned this post weren't allowed to listen to their I-pods on their watch... wonder how they survived?
