“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.”
And y’all hate on me? It was soooo bloody obvious to me even then that certain people knew much more than they were revealing. I challenged Scottish Restorian and she admitted. See above. And this happened WAY before the Ultimate Unveiling of him. It was said by someone who KNEW and was intimate with that […]
I’m currently – as I type – inside a BitchSlap with a fanatical yt commenter who TELLS me what to do. One day I WILL meet a worthy opponent and not some stupid attention whore. Maybe? ENTER THE STASI! BTW : My leaving celebration from Berlin was held in a Russian Hotel in East Berlin. […]
I was 12 years old when my Mum lent me her copy of the novel Katherine by Anya Seton. We were living here then, and it ignited my interest in local history. From Bolingbroke Castle to Lincoln Cathedral which are about 26 or so miles apart. And it also helped me with the English Royal […]
I know, coming from a multi-generational military family, that STANDARDS are flags. I even know a little bit about the history of STANDARDS. They are called several names : Colours, Flags, Oriflammes, Pennants etc To Raise The Standard used to mean To Fly YOUR Flag. As High As Possible so that everyone could see it. […]
I did a guided tour of the Vatican but there wasn’t enough time to go to the Castel, just down the road. Which was quite annoying because Giordano Bruno – my fave Italian – was imprisoned there. Anyhoo – look at the image above. Vatican vs Batu Khan. Batu Khan was the brother of Genghis […]
Never Ever upset a German woman called Gerda by calling the flights on her darts black, red and yellow. Oooh. Blitzkrieg. My bad :o( And we were playing on the same Darts Team. My bad. BTW : England are playing Germany right now. As I type. Septic Peg predicts……Red English Faces all round ? ? […]
To set a high/low standard for something: They’ve set the bar high in terms of what people expect from them. Set the bar low at first, then amaze the audience with a fantastic performance. By the age of 12 I was the tallest girl in the class. (That was 1000 years ago. Girls now are much taller!) So I got picked for […]
…If you invite them in. Your problem. Not MINE! The phrase “bell, book, and candle” refers to a Latin Christian method of excommunication by anathema, imposed on a person who had committed an exceptionally grievous sin. Evidently introduced by Pope Zachary around the middle of the 8th century, the rite was once used by the Roman […]
GB 19th October 2018 : Did Mary Sidney Write Shakespeare’s Plays? Even I had no idea about What an Absolutely Tangled Web I’d Woven! I’m absolutely loving this man and his knowledge because (although he has no idea) he HAS brought so many of my lines of research together. As stated in the old post […]
Oooh. I’m being given fascinating videos today :o) This one is a STUNNER for me. I got to know Somerset House quite well. By 1625, it was given over to Marie de Rohan as temporary accommodation when she escorted Henriette Marie to her new husband, Charles I Stuart, in England. By then the building had […]
It took me many years of deep research from many different angles and via many different sources to finally connect the family of VOIVODE VLAD DRACULESTI aka Vlad the Impaler aka Dracula to the Hidden History of Tartary. AS far as I know – correct me if I’m wrong – I’m the only person to […]
Just to clear the air and set the RECORD STRAIGHT…Yesterday’s music share about Janis Joplin was dedicated to the mother of my closest friend. The mother who met Bob Marley. Whose family was half white Jamaican. She was an Art Teacher and a beautiful woman who suffered much in life. Especially the divorce from her […]
