“Run from what’s comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious. I have tried prudent planning long enough. From now on I’ll be mad.”
IT is trawling MY archives for IT’S desperate attempts at Self-Worth and Public Recognition. How sad :o( GB 24th July 2019 : How To Heal The World. And…to quote myself : Healing yourself in the present also heals all timelines. The karma of the past (the ancestors) and the future (those yet to be born.)

ALL the women in my extended family live with male “comedians”! Hey. It’s a fact of life that the older a woman gets, the more she appreciates comfort over sexy show-it-all-and-hope-for-a-hit/bit. In the UK we call female underwear PANTS. Or knickers. I call them UnderFrillies (!) And s-i-l and I have past crimes of wearing […]

Oh. Bum/Bottom/Fundament! This one is going to take ALL (!?) of my little grey cells to work it out. Eeeeeeeeek. So I have The Possession of Gerasa. And I start the research and, immediately, get confronted with Judea vs Jordan and a smidge of Josephus – Jewish Wars. Sigh.

Are you a witch orAre you a fairy?Or are you the wifeof Michael Cleary? Cleary, the Irish name is pronounced Clairy – FYI! I watched a True Crime vidja about Bridget Cleary this morning (just to see what the “modern” BS story had morphed into) that made my blood run cold…as the saying goes. Bridget […]

Sometimes I astound myself! Oh. Done that one. This time it’s not a Good thing. How the Fluff did I miss the fact that the gorgeous Phil died in Salisbury? At Odstock Hospital? A place that I was Emergency called to via telephone one night at 3am to pick up a friend and neighbour after […]

I’m driving my family completely NUTS! As usual! I’ve got them utterly fascinated by these History Cold Cases. And – also – very irritated because I couldn’t put a name to the Narrator’s voice. Even though I KNEW that I Know that voice. Relief came yesterday about the narrator. Laurence Fox aka D.I. James Hathaway […]

I love and adore MR as Miss Marple. There are only a few films – and Agatha Christie HATED them all. So does yt, btw!!! But, for me, Margaret bought a naughtiness, a devil-may-care lightness to the role that no one else has ever replicated. Margaret Rutherford, herself, was also an intriguing character :o)

GB : 17th June 2019 I LOVE MY WORK :o) It gets more bizarre and surreal by the hour! Mum’s cousin, Janet, is a fabby amateur genealogist. She’s traced her and Mum’s Norfolk family back to the 1500’s. And one of the family names was DYER. As in they were cloth dyers ? Q – […]

I’m waiting for Dave, the postie to bring the two packages that I need to start on my new research project. So – I thought I’d spend the time being educated as I knit. OMG! I was watching this video below and when it got to the de-bunking part, I shouted “Russian Splice” at the […]

Long ago, I noticed a sad truth in the “Truther” community. There is a heavy tendency towards the large, wide-angled view of history and research etc. Buildings, photographs, lists, graphs, percentages, dates, sweeping subjects like philosophy, cosmology, architecture, science, death, rumours, narratives etc. I was once totally totalled by a nasty, ignorant trollbot in a […]

I find every part of this programme intriguing! Objective study has its place but it’s wonderful when we catch a glimpse of the “real” person behind the bones/history/story/name etc. The facial reconstruction expert, Caroline, has been on TV for many years. Her work astonishes and amazes me. This kind of thing is not everybody’s cup […]

Why are spies called Moles? And yes…they probably do spend time underground entering and exiting buildings via tunnels but not much time. Humans need sunlight to survive! When we stop looking at Underground/Tunnel/Labyrinth in their literal meanings – a whole new view opens up. Historical research is a labyrinthine task. And that Does NOT mean […]
