Yes, that's good. So shall we move on again? Here's another tack, unless it's already been covered.
If, as has been suggested, Boudica crossed to the Thames' South Bank (using the Roman Bridge? and more evidence of burning), would she have then moved West, possibly also burning Silchester? Although I do not know the Iceni population, I cannot believe she would have had a band of 100,000, leaving their homeland to it's fate, and moving into Atrebates territory.
