On October 15 70BC, Publius Vergilius Maro, author of the Aeneid, was born. He was 7 years old during Cicero’s consulship, 21 years when Caesar crossed the Rubicon, 26 when the dictator was murdered, and 39 when Octavian defeated Antony and Cleopatra at Actium. He died aged 51.

I asked one of my Y7 groups yesterday “What is a Civilisation?” Genuine response from one young lady: “Frankly, anywhere with a Starbucks…” and I’m finding it hard to argue against that.
