Oh this is gorgeous
Found another real estate gem, in London this time.
It's gorgeous, like a time capsule.
The front door alone is magical, you'd imagine bumping into Victorian street urchins some foggy evening.
The building is over 300 years old, lets go inside.

I recognise that this is a bit of a niche question, but can anyone help me. I'm desperate to read the article cited in this link, but I have no idea how to get my hands on it. Any ideas? #Newcastle #BrinkburnPriory www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Oh btw, I confirmed all this. Genealogy will definitely throw you some unexpected wtf moments.
Find My Past website: "here's something fun, find out who lived in your house in 1939"
Me, finding out I (very possibly) grew up in a house that one of my mam's relatives (born in the 1860s) lived in for 30 odd years.
And my parents didn't have a clue. #Genealogy

My thoughts today are with that poor girl who was recorded shazamming Bittersweet Sympathy at last night's Oasis gig.
Has it not occurred to some people that this is a very quick and convenient way to make a note of the set list?

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.
No one has heard from you in 43 days.
As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

I'm almost finished the audiobook of Character Limit. I truly forgot most of the crap that Musk had got up to when he bought twitter. Hated him before starting it, I absolutely loathe him now.

One of my presents the husband got me - a vial of uranium glass. How cool is that?! In a weird slightly unnerving way.
