I am a history buff with an interest in the period 1845 - 1870. Fascinating stuff and very instructive as a backdrop for what is happening now. I could go on for hours...
But I'm slipping on my XtraTufs to stop my sliding around. Heading out on deck now anyway.
Feel free to carry on without me though. I do enjoy reading slides between Q posts.
