@BBCRadio3 Good morning Georgia. How about Alabama Song by Elisabeth Hauptmann (I think)? Kurt Weill helped with the music. Is that sufficiently moony ?🌙

@MatthewSteggle Is there a release date for your much anticipated (by me) Shakespeare book?

Some personal news: we draw so much pleasure from reading and writing about all aspects of the ancient world, exploring the cultures of Greece and Rome, and sharing them with anyone anywhere who wants to listen. It's a free, and very freeing, joy.
Do RT if you know what we mean!

@DonaldMacleod01 Thanks Donald for a tremendous week. Slightly disappointed it didn’t feature this lot @mediaevalbaebes 😆

@EmmaHarding01 @DonaldMacleod01 @BBCRadio3 @WilliamFLyons To say that I’m looking forward to this would be a considerable understatement 🎵👍🏻

@drwillsharpe @OWC_Oxford Currently on p.62. The section regarding Watson, Marlowe, Shakespeare and Arden is brilliant! Having to force myself to slow down and process what is being suggested. Tremendous stuff 👍🏻
