Almost 2yrs after I said yes to writing this, I’m very pleased that my article about "White Ethnic Women Immigrants in North America" has been published as part of the new "Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Gender and Women's History" https://t.co/hw0rwNQEXQ

Remembering John Dawes on the fifth anniversary of his death. In 1971 he achieved a double still unique in rugby history: captaining Wales to the GS and the Lions to a series victory in NZ. Then, for good measure, he led the @Barbarians to their famous win over the All Blacks.

Brilliant Williams/Zimmer concert at #SwanseaArena #ATGTickets 29/3 but not easily accessible because lifts not working in @coprbayswansea car park and impossible to leave car park for an hour at end. Huge queues,completely stationary on level 2. Why? Appalling @SwanseaCouncil

This man was exploring a dark cave when he found a massive tiger trapped in the freezing water…and then…

On this day in 1971, Spurs won the League Cup for the first time. Martin Chivers scored twice late on at Wembley to seal a 2–0 win over Aston Villa, sparking celebrations as Tottenham lifted the trophy for the first time.

Great days. 🙏

If strong rumours are true that a group of deserter investors from the Ospreys arê to be installed as Cardiff owners are true, and a worthy Cardiff group ignored , then we can draw the curtains on Welsh rugby and the WRU weasels who are running it

Gareth Edwards and Barry John, New Zealand 1971. The best Lions' 9-10 by a country mile. Just wanted to give them something this doesn't, a mention.

[David Bateson @DavidBateson5]

This really brings medieval history to life. Well done!

[The Tower of London @TowerOfLondon]

A makeover for the Medieval Palace 🏰

The Medieval Palace once lay at the heart of what was formerly the residential area of the Tower.

These were richly decorated and comfortable lodgings, grand enough for any medieval monarch 👑

Amazing history!

[The Tower of London @TowerOfLondon]

A miraculous survival 😲 This late medieval fish trap was found in the Tower of London’s moat 🐟

It is made from woven willow twigs, with two large pieces of flint to help it sink. It was discovered in the 1990s during an archaeological dig 🪏
