@medievalgill I'm not going to lie, I'm feeling a little bloodthirsty now...

@macmorr1s_ @TudorStuartIre @SRSRenSoc Such a fantastic project revealing incredibly important and unknown glimpses into the history of early modern Munster!

[Jim O'Neill @neilojim1972]

I'll be talking about the #nineyearswar 'at A miserable and beggarly war' -Dispelling the myths of Tyrone's Rebellion with @TuathaIreland on Wednesday night, there'll be Q & A at the end if you're busting to give me a hard time.

@HerreraMilHist @samanthalnelson @SRSRenSoc @SMH_Historians Oh, that would be fantastic! I am putting that in my calendar. Thank you for sending the details!

[Ruth Canning @RuthCanning4]

I had the incredible pleasure of presenting on an military history panel composed entirely of women speakers. Fantastic papers by @samanthalnelson and Sarah Bernhardt. Thanks @SRSRenSoc conference!

[Ruth Canning @RuthCanning4]

@LostPlayhouse @samanthalnelson @SRSRenSoc Thank you for coming! It was a great audience too!

[Ruth Canning @RuthCanning4]

@samanthalnelson @SRSRenSoc You hold your own in a crowd of academics. I thought your paper was amazing! Can’t wait to read more!

[Ruth Canning @RuthCanning4]

@MissMacCormack Congratulations, Olivia!

@tait_clodagh @NikkiClark86 @janeohlmeyer @hiramjmorgan @neilojim1972 Couldn’t agree more with Clodagh. Irish nobles and the politics that come with it play a key role in the Elizabethan court. I have written about the Old English nobility of Ireland and their relationship with Elizabeth. Happy to share or talk more if you wish Nicola

I aspire to be ‘fabulosa’ in someone’s cipher. #historianlifegoals #earlymodernlegends

[Jim O'Neill @neilojim1972]

Precautions taken to protect contents of sensitive letters. OTD 1595 cipher was sent from London for Irish dispatches. Dungannon was 'Canaan', Tyrone was Cain (bit rude) John Norreys was Scipio (bit presumptuous), but no one beats Earl of Kildare who was 'fabuloso' #nineyearswar
