So not the ?swipe right? version the thread title ambiguously suggested. :kiss2:

I think T makes sculptures and art in his spare time, so calls himself an artist and has to fight them off.

And there's me wishfully thinking Taylor Swift might need some input into a new album. Oh well...

?250 is probably about the best price you'll get for a C-14 date, but there is a fund for community archaeology C-14 dates (https://www.cardfund.org/). Do be aware that it's not as straightforward as having something that contains carbon, sample collection needs to be done carefully to avoid contamination and if it's a timber sample, depending on the species and where in tree the timber came from, the date could be several hundred years out...

Correct about contamination
One of our guys had a wolf skull dated recently and it came out as late 20th century.
It is probably due to contamination and will be re-done, but in the meantime people should be very careful when going to the chippy in Brough.
