Well, since it's now gone midnight by my time, I suppose I should draw a line under this silliness :wink:
The above article was, of course, all my own work, in honour of the date*. The estimable Professore Anastasi was actually involved in shining coloured lights onto the column some months ago, to give an impression of its original appearance, but the colours used were relatively ordinary and no pink loricas appeared.
My apologies to anyone whose digestion was upset by the thought of multicoloured legionaries! But if anyone actually wants a polka-dot tunic, I'm sure they can have one...
Moderators - please feel free to delete this thread, or move it to Off Topic, if you feel it might disconcert the unwary!
