Legio IX Hispana Camp, MTHE 2006

Nice pictures.

Hib, your first photo brough back one or two memories for me:

As you can see, I didn't bother to use my sleeping bag that weekend. Instead, my tunic and cloak became the natural choice for my bedding. I was photographed sleeping here in the doorway of a reconstructed roundhouse.

Yes, I have done overnight watches too during my time in the Roman army. The gate house at the Lunt fort becomes considerably less interesting after you have been pacing up and down on it and looking out into the dead of night for a couple of hours waiting for the next party of soldiers to relieve you.
