At one point @bc-cambs-essex.bsky.social @savebutterflies.bsky.social there were two of these sitting this morning in Essex

Tonight I went and saw a Flamenco show!

Day 4 in Seville the church of San Salvador and the Alcazar! Both worth visiting thequacksoflife.blogspot.com/2025/11/day-...

Good morning a little Almohad Caliphate for you

Oh tomorrow I'll be posting the Alcazar. The Almohad Caliphate influence on the city can still be seen.

Well my third day in Seville. A brief storm but lots of sun too thequacksoflife.blogspot.com/2025/11/sevi...

There are lots of pictures on the links I've posted. The cathedral is amazing Columbus tomb is interesting 😂

I can imagine Caesar here

It's the bull ring in Seville. 25c in November. An amazing city.

Hey @partialhistorians.bsky.social @sistoryhistory.bsky.social about as close to a Roman Amphitheatre as you can find. And no I am not attending a fight 😬😬🤢

Tuesday morning exploring Seville thequacksoflife.blogspot.com/2025/11/sevi...

Nice to see blue skies and feel warmth after leaving England in the rain. Day 1 in Seville thequacksoflife.blogspot.com/2025/11/sevi...

It has been a VERY long time since I opened an exam paper I chose a career without them .... But even I can remember the feeling of trepidation. It must have been a dreadful feeling

All fail Caesar: students at eight schools taught wrong topic for final year 12 history exam Queensland checking all 172 schools sitting exam with pupils expected to claim special consideration after studying the wrong Roman emperor

I trust this wasn't you @partialhistorians.bsky.social studying Augustus instead of Julius?? 🤔🤔 www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Today i went to see the sculpture installation at Hidcote. Really worth seeing @nationaltrust.org.uk thequacksoflife.blogspot.com/2025/10/hidcot…

Yeah. It's an amazing building. Oh to see it before the reformation!

Hey @5minmedievalist.bsky.social I was listening to your podcast on Athelstan today and when your guest mentioned his tomb I was passing Malmesbury. I was there on Wednesday. The head is not the original, that was destroyed in the Civil War

Another long overdue visit to @midsandeastnt.bsky.social Newark Park... Dodging the downpours lol thequacksoflife.blogspot.com/2025/09/newa...

Today a long overdue return to @nationaltrust.org.uk Tyntesfield thequacksoflife.blogspot.com/2025/09/tynt...

I spent today exploring @nationaltrust.org.uk spectacular Stourhead thequacksoflife.blogspot.com/2025/09/stou...

You mentioned Lovecraft and Dunwich. I assume you are aware of his story The Dunwich Horror? Set alas in America. The ghost story writer and medieval historian M.R James wrote a story based there Whistle and I'll come to you my lad. It is an atmospheric place there are ruins of a leper chapel

Today's visit to Lacock @nationaltrust.org.uk

I always think start at Mort or guards guards.

I came downstairs the other morning to find this fox sunning itself
