Steam rallies are great because you can see a bunch of people proudly showing off a spectrum of old machines ranging from "technological marvel and revolutionary machine, clear ancestor of those used today" and "dumbest most useless doohickey you've ever witnessed in your life" and they all work to this day
#they set them up and demo them#i saw a steam engine belt saw cutting a giant plank of wood!#and steam organs and mini engines you could ride around on#and ornate Roma caravans and vintage campers and old cars and giant trucks#i saw someone making lace!#driffield beats ass ackworth was less than half the size. mind you ackworth was quieter#we got in free because we brought a vintage thing :p#never went to whitby one myself idk how good it was#also ackworth rally didn't have plumbing

Truth Comes Limping
My thoughts on Truth Comes Limping by #JJConnington #CrimeFiction #BookReview
A review of Truth Comes Limping by J J Connington – 240204 It is a while since I have read anything by J J Connington, the pen name of Alfred Stewart, a distinguished Chemistry professor in his day. Thirteen, they say, is lucky for some and unlucky for others and Truth Comes Limping, the thirteenth in his Sir Clinton Driffield series, is somewhat below the standard of some of his earlier novels.…

"It is not clear why the treaty of the fleurs de lys [between England and France] failed. But it is possible to guess. The most likely explanation is that John II’s councillors were appalled by what he had agreed at Villeneuve and made difficulties about the delivery of the security. In mid-July an English officer, Thomas Driffield, left England with sixty men-at-arms to take possession of Dun, Ainay and la Roche-sur-Yon. The story of his mission is unknown. But it is plain that it failed.
Then, early in September 1363, [Louis of Anjou, John II's second son and one of the signatories of the treaty, escaped from English captivity]. Anjou, an able and ambitious young man of twenty-four, had married for love (and without his father’s consent) a daughter of Charles of Blois shortly before he had surrendered as a hostage two years before. He had borne his captivity particularly ill. Like the other royal princes he was allowed to absent himself from Calais on his parole for up to three days at a time. He made use of the privilege to visit the shrine of Notre-Dame de Boulogne and to see his wife [Marie of Blois-Penthièvre] at his father-in-law’s castle of Guise. He decided not to return. It was an unusual event among those who were bound by the aristocratic code of honour. John II was furious. He summoned his errant son to a family conference at the town of Saint-Quentin. The prince, afraid that he would be arrested and forcibly returned to England, would only meet them in an open field some four miles from the walls. All their entreaties failed to move him. The treaty of the fleurs de lys was dead. Many in France must have been relieved."
— Jonathan Sumption, The Hundred Years War, Volume 2: Trial by Fire (The Middle Ages Series)
