Autumn poem just dropped.
[The poem has been written in the shape of a deciduous tree with letters (or ‘leaves’) missing from the text]:
 
  comm   n pr  ble    whe    writin    p   ems
in the shape of decid o   s trees
is t  at once t   ere ar   ives
the fir   t sti   rings of    he new aut   mn breeze,  
  he       oems will begi    to shake    hemselves ge   tly  
  ntil their letters loos   n like leaves,
an they d start to float down
then
 
[The missing letters from the tree have landed on the last line to form the phrase]

[The final ‘d’ is floating down to complete the phrase.]

And we have 5 rivers called Avon, the Brythonic word for river. So they are actually called the river River.

Every year on 19 December, the famous Christmas lights at Mousehole in Cornwall are dimmed between 8 and 9pm, leaving just the Cross and Angels shining down across the village and out to sea.

Repeatedly failed in examination for Chief Engineer (gallantly, the examiners also failed the men who scored lower than her, ie virtually everybody), Drummond finally passed when she realised Panama accepted examination by post, an error greatly reducing the chance of anybody noticing her gender.

I reviewed Sarah Williams' book on Josephine Butler - one of the most extraordinary women in modern British history, who should be *much* better known. It's "both a biography of a remarkable woman and an argument about how to write the history of Victorian Britain". academic.oup.com/ehr/advance-...
"Josephine Butler (1828–1906) was one of the most famous women of her age. She led an international crusade against sex-trafficking and child abuse. She brought prostitutes out of prison and into her home; challenged governments, police chiefs and judges; and spoke of rape and sexually transmitted disease on public platforms. Over a long career, Butler fought for women’s education, argued for female suffrage, served on the Married Women’s Property Committee and supported Home Rule for Ireland. She wrote numerous books, pamphlets and articles, as well as biographies of her husband, her father and the fourteenth-century mystic St Catherine of Siena. Most famously, she led the victorious campaign against the Contagious Diseases Acts (CDAs), which allowed the detention, medical inspection and imprisonment of women suspected of prostitution without trial. Millicent Garrett Fawcett thought that ‘No other woman in history has had such far-reaching influence’, and the suffrage movement carried her name on its banners. Yet she is largely forgotten today; and when the Fawcett Memorial was erected in 2018, her name was not among the fifty-five pioneers inscribed on its plinth."

An increase in domestic capital gains tax would have no impact on foreign investment into the country as it would only apply to UK tax payers. The idea that uk tax payers would stop investing if CGT increased is laughable. They’ll still invest where the most profit is to be made.

As a visitor I find myself increasingly taking photos of longer texts that I can then read later at leisure. I think it’s important to have the information displayed but I would personally benefit from short summaries whilst actually looking around.

This week in 1812 Spencer Perceval became the only British Prime Minister to be assassinated. Its the least interesting thing about him. Working with hedonistic lawyer James Stephen, the devout Christian engineered one of the first slavery bans in British territory WITHOUT Parliament's approval. /1
