Alcazaba

Thursday, 6 August 2020, 14:54.Reading time less than 1 minute.

A purist would pronounce Alcazaba with a “Castilian Lisp.” It was from watching Agua Cadaver that I found out what an Alca-th-aba really was. And I’ve spent all my visits to Spain in the al-Andalus region…….! Rosemary and Laura are invited to a place near Málaga, Spain to “do-over” the garden of one of Rosemary’s […]

Iolo Morganwg

I half watched a yt video today that made me spit feathers!!! It mentioned Iolo Morganwg and then dismissed him straight away with the very long-running MS History sentence…“but he faked every antiquarian document he used.” I beg to differ! No surprise there. If you don’t know already, I’ve spent many years researching 11th/12th cc […]

Clara Miller

Strange but true! Did y’all know that Clara Miller was not only an Irish “Seer” but she named her third child Agatha Mary Clarissa Miller? Agatha Miller married, then was divorced by, Archibald Christie who preferred his fancy-pants mistress, Nancy Neele. Clara home-schooled Agatha and nurtured her daughter’s love of literature. And from there – […]

See You, Oscar!

In the early years of the 20th century the phrase, See you, Oscar, was Glaswegian Slang. It meant – See you, Oscar Slater/See you later. There are many reasons why I love Sherlock Holmes and Arthur Conan Doyle. George Edalji was not the only Real Life person whom Conan Doyle saved. There was also Oscar […]

THE MYSTERIOUS CASE OF NETTA FORNARIO

OM Good Grief. Like I need to be side-tracked any more. Tut! This “case” has been on my mind for days and I’ve only done the most basic of research. The “friend” who left Netta to fend for herself was Dion Fortune. I’m disliking the “occult” references/innuendos – deeply. To my (strange!) mind, Netta was […]

Because of past experiences of posting yt chans that I watch…I’ve hesitated to share Brooke’s videos. But – I’ve been watching her for about two months now. Catching up, WOW! She is prolific. And beautiful. And does her research. Of all her vids, this one has intrigued the most. The only one that I feel […]

Silent Movies

Monday, 3 August 2020, 13:47.Reading time less than 1 minute.

Ever since childhood, I have had a fascination with Silent Movies. There is something challenging yet thrilling about adding your own dialogue to a film/moving pictures. I can honestly say that my ongoing fascination with the Gothic/Horror Genre started out as genuine research for a project that I had as a teenager. I’ve just never […]
