#OnThisDay 29th May 1453, Constantinople fell to the Ottomans, and the last flame of the #RomanEmpire was snuffed out forever. Here's a wee short story I wrote about it years ago (very early attempt at writing, so forgive the heavy use of adjectives 😂) gordondoherty.co.uk/intothebreach.…

A #Roman #histfic packed 'shelfie' from the fabulous Mr Mike Riley - with his fresh set of signed Legionary hardbacks on display. Kudos to Mike for also donating generously to Myeloma UK 👏👏👏

Dear Churchill Thanks for abruptly cancelling my #campervan insurance, then hanging up on me half way through when I called to find out why. I've now got a policy that was £100 cheaper than you, and - best of all - I don't have to put up with your snippy customer relations 🥳

Hello Decathlon I've got a customer service horror story. Shall I tweet about it? Or would you like to provide me with a phone number where I can talk (not WhatsApp, actually talk) to someone about an online (not in store) order and return? The floor is yours.

3,000 year old #Hittite seal excavated from the ruins at Büklükale, bearing the chilling message "Whoever breaks this will die" 😱 Definitely an #IndianaJones movie in this (or at least a novel by a fanboy #histfic novelist 😉)
