THE DARK SIDE
NDE When asked WHY? I answered : I just want this pain to stop!
Read MoreMY Revelation
Yup. I’m WEIRD. I’ve always known that. I do all the stuff listed below. What has totally freaked me out these past 2/3 years is the fact that I can still FEEL all this through my laptop. Which is why I’m perfectly fine with 24 subs, 1 view a week and zero comments right now. […]
Read MoreThe Remains of An Altar
I have read and/or listened to just about every novel that Phil Rickman has written. Apart from his John Dee ones! The Remains of an Altar has stayed with me for many reasons. You have an ex-SAS soldier who is now a churchman. You have Merrily doing her Deliverance stuff. You have the ghost of […]

Read MoreAnd Sneeze All Over You
Years ago I had a customer who became a friend who was a Beautician and Aromatherapist. That’s how we connected. She’d give me an incredible neck, shoulder massage with Black Pepper Essential Oil and tell me to go home, sit down and place a hot water bottle behind my left shoulder to help the Pepper […]
Read MoreMAPS : Turgot vs Agas
If the Turgot 1739 map didn’t impress, how about Agas Map1572, London. In the image above from the Elizabethan 1572 map you will see Somerset Place on the river, next to the Savoy. I used Turgot to walk my characters around Paris and this map to do the same in London. By 1625, when Marie […]
Read MoreThe Invisibles
.After watching a great live chat a while back, I’ve been sent back to old books of mine. The Invisibles is subtitled “The True History of the Rosicrucians.” M’eh. True? I’m not totally convinced but it is fascinating. Especially when – much to my joy – I find a section called A Conjunction on the […]
Read MoreThe Faceless Knight : History vs B.S-ery
The faceless knight is an image much used in Fantasy Computer games and such like! Or it has become the subject of some very weird and disturbing theories about suits of armour being created to hide WORMY Creatures. OK. Disclaimer : I am NOT an expert on Heraldry. This is just another subject that has […]
Read Moreda Vinci’s Star
Some extremely clever person took the image above, which was published in the Rosicrucian pamphlet Speculum sophicum rhodostauroticum – 1618, and worked out the sacred geometry encoded there. He found da Vinci’s star. The same star that is hidden in Vitruvian Man. He also found several other hidden secrets in the lines, including something that […]

Vainglory by Geraldine McCaughrean is one of those HistFic books that is a keeper on my shelves. Vainglory : excessive or ostentatious pride especially in one’s achievements. 2 : vain display or show : vanity. This book starts in 1429 (Jehanne d’Arc : Siege of Orléans !) An oft quoted line from this novel is […]
