not my worse, but had reason to remember this recently. Lost whole Community Programme fieldwalking team in the fog. Or were they hiding?
Another one. Early days of geophysical survey with a prototype magnetometer. The results came out as a 20m square on individual printouts (like a receipt). You had to cut out the squares then paste them onto paper. Forgot to mark which way was north. No saved file. One of a few reasons why they 'let me go'????
and another...absolute diatribe against an eminent church archaeologist acting as consultant who had questioned my interpretation. Thought he was long gone, but just around the corner and heard the lot (I can swear a lot and don't always have due respect for such grown ups). Didn't stay much longer with the unit B)
