Half way through 'Beyond the Wall' by Katja Hoyer this weekend 📚
I thought that this book was going to be really heavy going but not at all, very readable 📚
If the #ColdWar #WW2 or European #history are you interest then I highly recommend this #book

Saturday in #London finished with the 'Treasures Tour' of the magnificent British Library 📚
As we toured the #library I became more fascinated by the actual building rather than the contents 📖
I shall have to return to spend some time in the 'Treasures Room' 🪙

The Welcome Collection had this 1861 patent for 'Cholera Bands' as part of #Cholera Day 🤔
A variety of different devices worn round the abdomen to 'prevent and treat' cholera
These were still being issued to British #Army soldiers in India and Macidonia in #WW1 🪖

It's Cholera Day at the Welcome Collection in #London 😊
Those familiar with #cholera will know of John Snow and the Broad Street pump maps 🗺
Less well known is the work of William Farr who had already identified a link to water💧and dispelled a link to the weather 🦠

Second visit in #London today was the Jack the Ripper Museum in #Whitechapel
They have the equipment carried by PC Watkins when he discovered one of the victims 😯
A small museum but still busy which shows the enduring appeal of this 140 year old mystery 🗡

My first #London 🇬🇧 trip in January 2026 🏖
Its the London Museum Docklands 🏛 for 'Secrets of the Thames' 🌊 exhibition ✨
A brilliant mix of #art objects and interpretation 😊
I can feel a 2027 #Thames trip looking at #WW2 conflict #archaeology in the planning 🤔

Out to the Odeon #Cinema 🎥 Snaresbrook to see the very good #Mercy film 🎞
With #AI as judge, jury and executioner you have 90 mins, with the evidence of a 'surveillance society' at your disposal, to prove your innocence ⚖
Original and thought provoking 😊 highly recommend 👌

Fascinating talk by Robin Goodchild on the 'Origins of St Mary's Church' ⛪ at #BSE #library 📚
The 15th century church we know today is the 5th on the site largely paid for by two local benefactor's Bennet & Smythe 🤔
As a town church it was spared during the reformation ✝️

Two of the temp bridges over the Thames went to #Africa post #WW2 🤔

Every month I check the 'whats on' on the website of these 14 institutions & if work shifts allow I'll go along 🤔
Lucky to have Edmunds Lecture Series & Past & Present Society in Bury St Edmunds and Cambridge close 🗣
