Olivia Rodrigo – Deja Vu
I only ‘discovered’ Olivia Rodrigo yesterday and this was the first track of hers I checked out. I was in London a couple of weeks back and kept having major deja vu experiences, hence this selection. This young lady, a Filipino-American, is only 20 years old.

Review: Before Bletchley Park – The Codebreakers of The First World War – by Paul Gannon
I have previously read a lot of material on World War 2 codebreakers and the likes of Alan Turing and their critical work against Enigma and the invention of modern computing during that period.

The Cuban Revolution was an earth-shattering event with huge consequences internationally, not just in Latin America, but further afield. I felt the impact myself whilst travelling across Scandinavia in 2005.

Review: Queens of the Crusades – by Alison Weir
I had previously read Alison Weir’s most excellent book specifically on Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine many years ago so the author was familiar to me. I chanced upon this title in my local library (Caldicot) and thought I’d give it a go. It covers the lives of several British Queens, or rather the historical period… Continue reading
