Popping back to Bluesky after a year long social media holiday to say hello to old and new friends.
Still plugging away on a documentary about a remarkable and inspiring nonogenarian composer.

I really enjoyed this novel by Kelly Evans. It's a gripping and informative read about Edith of Wessex, the years leading up to the Conquest in 1066 and how easily the invasion might have failed were it not for the treachery of a power-hungry, vainglorious usurper. Remind you of any one today?
On this day in 1045, King Edward the Confessor married Edith of Wessex, a member of the notorious and powerful Godwin family.
Read her tumultuous story here: mybook.to/ConfessorsWife
"The story wove history into a gorgeous, exciting and colourful tapestry. 5 Stars."
