Understanding the British Political System

Correct.

Thinking About Slavery

The weakness of England during the Norman conquest gave thevScotsvan opportunity, but the Normans gave them a good hammering.

Underland: a Review

Long termis always buried, SHORT term can stay on the surface.

Why do Christians Believe that Jesus was Divine

There probably were mediaeval legends, butbthere are no recorded last words.

Why do Christians Believe that Jesus was Divine

Thank you!

So my comment in the second box below contains Jesus Christ's last words.

Is there any Christian tradition about the last words of Our Lady Mary and of St. Joseph?

Underland: a Review

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

A storage unit for nuclear waste could have either an above- or a below-ground component for nuclear waste in the United States.

Which would it be in the British Isles?

Thinking About Slavery

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Your comment three boxes down advises us of the Scots as taking "many English slaves right up to the Norman period."

Did the Norman victory at the Battle of Hastings end other British Isles-ers, such as Irish and Scots, even thinking of taking English inhabitants as slaves?

Understanding the British Political System

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Queen Elizabeth II perhaps faced a time just before dying in which she perhaps had duties yet to discharge.

The task for discharging any unfinished duties therefore would have been then-Prince Charles (now King Charles III), correct?

Walking the Length of Britain

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Perhaps that first walker in 1879 also set the custom then of stopping at Tan Hill inn?!

Walled Gardens: a review

There indeed must be some growers in the British Isles.

The BBC Gardeners World magazine numbers among its online articles "How to grow pineapples"!

The aforementioned source offers as growing sites indoor conservatories, greenhouses or windowsills. It permits outside sojourns for home-grown pineapples only during summer months.

Would pineapples be available in the British Isles in any farmers market or grocery store or just in higher-priced specialty food stores?

Where was Jesus Born

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Sepphoris intrigues me because of that Salt Lake City Library book.

Salt Lake City kept two books -- the one listed above, the other listed below -- that I never observed elsewhere.

For example, I read a book about the Argonauts, the Golden Fleece and Jason as situated -- because of night-sky configurations -- in Lake Titicaca, Bolivia, not in the Black Sea area.

It was a bit surprising since it was educational and pleasant using the two downtown libraries, that is, the Family History Library and the Salt Lake City Library.

The Royal Horticultural Society

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Education and training can deepen one's appreciation of plants or initiate that appreciation.

Does RHS membership become available only to those already horticulturally trained or those horticulturally appreciative without previous training?

The Resurrection of Jesus

Thank you for the comment below in correction of my previous observation.

English Wiktionary gives as respective meanings "small" and "ask for, borrow" for the names Paul and Saul.

Might St. Paul have chosen that name because of feeling small in regard to God and Jesus Christ?

Cheadle Hulme History Walk, Cheshire

Thank you for inviting us along on such an educational, historic, pleasant walk.

Your photos are so clear and so well-focused, that the green foliage and the white walls, especially in the last in-text image, are bright- and clean-looking.

The sixth subheading, The old fire station, ends with the statement that "The Market Square was situated here when Cheadle Hulme was called Cheadle Moseley."

What motivated being called Cheadle Moseley, then not being called Cheadle Moseley any longer, finally being called Cheadle Hulme?

The Remote Islands of Britain

The northern isles have poor soil, so they must import some foodstuffs.
