February is a short month so reaching our target is going to be even harder, but we’re going to carry on trying. February, we’ve decided is going to be ‘Love Roman Colchester’ month. We’re keen to tie in with St Valentine’s Day, given Valentinus’ Roman origins.
Already, The Lemon Tree in St John’s Street, Colchester, has announced that it will be offering a special menu throughout February for “Love Roman Colchester”, and it will donate to the appeal an amount from each set meal sold.
There is more to come of course, and we’ll share it with you here, on the email newsletter, and via the Facebook group. But you’re welcome to put on your own events to celebrate “Love Roman Colchester” month. Tell us about them and we’ll feature them here.
Also, we haven’t yet put together a logo for the theme of “Love Roman Colchester” month. If there are any talented designers out there who would like to submit an idea, we’ll gladly give them credit and kudos if we select their design. Sorry, we don’t plan to pay for the logo. But it could end up on a mug, t-shirt etc.
To submit, either upload your design to Flickr.com and send us the link or email it to us. We’d like to showcase them on our Flickr space, so include any blurb and web links you’d like us to include below your image.

Tried to send you £50.00 twice tonight but your payment system failed twice which must be a disaster for you. Please let me have a postal address and I will send a cheque.
Thank you. It is. We’re hoping to have a Justgiving account live soon, to handle donations and to enable people to run their own fundraising events for us.
You can send donations by post to Colchester Archaeological Trust, Camulodunum, 12 Lexden Road, Colchester, CO3 3NF.
Thank you for persevering.
