In MS History, Gaythelos was a Greek prince married to Scota. In MY History – MY “Gaythelos” conducted HIS operations from…. Iki : Paphlagonia I’m finding it a bit weird that EVERY single MS History equivalent of said Gaythelos ends with the same scenarios. Like – Nothing more is known of him/His date and place […]

FluffSake. Along with the last post and the music and the Fatal Riot etc, I was talking about watching the crows on our lawn sunbathing yesterday. Our Jakey (Rescued Crow) used to do that a lot. And he’d assume the same position amongst a colony of ants and let them all creepy crawl over him. […]

I came across them whilst researching Jehanne d’Arc. Because Charles d’Orleans’ mother was Valentina Visconti – daughter of the Giangaleazzo of the title. I always place this bunch alongside the […]

Bedlam by Catharine Arnold. ‘Bedlam!’ The very name conjures up graphic images of naked patients chained among filthy straw, or parading untended wards deluded that they are Napoleon or Jesus Christ. We owe this image of madness to William […]
