I spent the morning making these; unfortunately it was a waste of my time, as I'm going to have to take them apart in order make a start on the guillotines for this government.

@FranzenKristof Hej Kristofer — it is exciting to see that you are bookbinding! I have been doing so too, though I have only managed pamphlet and Japanese stab bindings for now, not traditional western codec. Your book looks great! Hope you’re doing well — sorry I am so bad at staying in touch.

@historyinmemes Hidden painting found behind a 16th century painting titled "Life of San Severo". It was found during restoration at the Church of Saint George Maggiore in Naples, Italy. It portrays St. George slaying a dragon.

An English couple (Plymouth, Devon) discovering a Medieval well under their home back in 1988. Colin Steer, a former civil servant, said: “I was replacing the joists in the floor when I noticed a slight depression - it appeared to be filled in with the foundations of the house. I dug down about one foot and saw that it was a well but Vanessa just wanted to me to cover it back up because we had three children running around at the time.” Twenty years later, Colin Steer would finally explore the well. Assisted by a local resident, Mr. Steer dedicated three days to clear the well, approximately 30 inches wide, employing a bucket on a rope to extract debris. Site plans indicate the well's origin to be from at least the 16th century, aligning with the conclusion of the medieval era. A mere five feet into the excavation, a surprising find emerged – an ancient sword. Halting the digging at approximately 17 feet, Mr. Steer estimates the well's depth to be a minimum of 33 feet.

@sjfbilton Interesting to hear there was an old English recipe; I always associated these with Sweden.

It’s St Lucia’s Day so that means saffron buns! I’ve used an 18th century English recipe that also includes coriander seeds. It’s from my book Fool’s Gold: A History of British Saffron (which would make a great Christmas present BTW 😉).

@CliveMyrieBBC Ah, so it was you I saw on the streets of Rome last weekend..! (Assuming this pizza is inspired from the trip!)
