Introduction | I, Hadriana aka Catherine Jarvis, am a North Eastern Lass. I studied and worked in London for 15 years. Followed by a Stint as a Part Time Red Sea Scuba Diver where I met my husband amongst the corals, sea grass and sea horses. Here we are (plus two children and an Egyptian dog) in the Heart of Hadrian's Wall Country, UK. Follow us as we realise our Roman Wall dreams! Come and look at my other website Catherine's Hands-On-Latin Courses (Tours, Latin, Languages & History)...for more info see: www.hands-on-latin.com @handsonlatin Facebook handsonlatin.com |

If you could peer far enough into the night sky, you'd see a star in any direction you looked. When would you sleep?
The sky around here is fantastic. No light pollution. Besides I do not sleep. I blog and tweet about Hadrian's Wall.
