I think I'd like to be a historian. It's a job I'd love to have. I think the idea of poring over books and putting together all the information to find out all the information about a particular person, group or event in my own account and to express my opinions on it. I like being able to look at something and having the ability to interpret all the evidence to reach my own judgement and do all the thinking about what could or could not have happened, why something happened in the first place and what else it has effected. To earn my crust, I'd do some teaching as well, mixed in with some Indiana Jones-style adventuring while assuring them all that all historical work takes place in the classroom. Then I'd take over from Tony Robinson on Time Team.
Yep.
