A lovely day out with the brown mare - we had a good few gallops and splashes. Sunday Fundays are back! #exracehorse #dayoff #lovemymare #cleanboothunting #thoroughbred

My next article is nearly ready to post. I just have to add some graphics, etc. It is all about the Righteous Among the Nations award, so watch this space tomorrow! #History #Holocaust

Today I visited #Warwick with a friend. Having lived nearby for years I have never really explored. Wow! It certainly ticked a few #medieval and #Tudor boxes! Will definitely make this a regular place to visit. #15thcentury #armour #effigies #churches #raggedstaffandbear

Today we marked #RemembranceDay in our village. Phil as a #WW1 trooper on the superb Charlie, & me as #WW2 women's Land Army (there was a huge depot a few miles away) on Daxi. It was an absolute privilege to read the roll of honour and exortation.

It's a rainy archive day today. Was a little amazed to see my name on several documents as well as finding this article I contributed too. Yvonne Burney née Baseden was a dear friend. #SOE #archives #research #book3?

Thank you to the staff and passengers on CrossCountry Trains today for observing the silence for #armisticeday2025. It meant a lot to me as I had to travel at the time & hate missing it. #remember #remembrance #thankyou

A great day in Winchester preparing for a commission to deliver scripts relating to the city and it's history. #History #researcher #writer #historian #historysmaid
