Cheers to #AnnWalker on her 220th birthday 😀🥂 You're allowed to enjoy a good glass of wine and you are most certainly allowed *not* to drink if you don't feel like it. Let's nip this myth in the bud 🍷😉

NEW FIND

It is known Ann was at Terrace House -a private asylum- in 1843/44. We now know Ann was at another private asylum, Sussex House in April 1845. It was run by Dr Forbes Winslow, an eminent doctor of the time. Read all about here in this blog: https://t.co/BaiXnblHMv

Fabulous day for my first #NationalArchives visit with #ISAW pals.
Fascinating.
Full-on.
And filthy!
Oh, and back-breaking. ;-)
Yet all in a good cause.

"planning a little Inn or Alehouse which I had laughed and told A- last night might have the sign of a teazle" 10.Dec.1835

Did #AnnWalker like the teasel? Or did the flower remind #AnneLister of Ann? Adorable 🌸🥰 but prickly 🔪💢 (and partly carnivorous 😳)

@KillingEve You turned off the comments?? 🤣 🐔🐔🐔

@MisandryPope YES to all of this! I've been listening to some of the old podcast episodes. S1-S2 were SO good! The joy of analyzing every little detail! Just for it to be reduce to "Why? It is what it is" in S4. 🤬 Sally 🤬 LN for treating this show (and its audience) so carelessly!

[Leila Straub @LeilaMarcia]

@SearchingForAnn @d_sirola @Ivana_Nika The excitement though when you finally get it! We've all been there, Anne 🤣

Cliffe Hill❗️(I always read it in #AnnWalker’s aghast voice😄)

“laughed and said let Cliff Hill but on her saying Cliff Hill ! thought it was too early in our day to mention and said I was only joking” - 29.Sep.1832

@FOSMchurchyard thank you for the interesting tour!
