Understanding the British Political System
The biggest surprise is that the monarch lost much power in the 1600s. We are taught in a slanted history that the American Revolution in the late 1700s was to oppose the taxes of King George III. Strange how history differs depending on the ...

Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve Factfile
I saw a television programme that said that under water off the eastern Indian coast stone remains have been found that were on land that was last out of water well over five thousand years ago.Indian civilisation is therefore very ancient.

Knit Stitches For Increases and Decreases
You never know. I didn't have time for knitting, or the time to learn creative stitches, until recently. I like that you say "yet". The knitting bug may bite you one day.

Cinereus Ringtail Possums (Pseudochirulus cinereus) of Daintree River in Queensland, Australia
We have possums in the U.S. but they're a dull grey. It's interesting to see and learn about animals in other parts of the world.

Knitting seems like such creative hobby, but I don't think it's for me - yet. Who knows? I admire the intricate designs knitters can make.

I'm so glad individuals and organizations care about nature and work to keep it safe. It's als amazing to find evidence of other civilizations that used to live in remote areas.

Get Informed About Parrots
I've only seen parrots in zoos but they sure are pretty and interesting. When I was young, my sister and I had parakeets and they lived a long time. They sure seemed happy and chirped a lot.

The Rule of the Land: a review
I've never been on a walking tour, although I take a walk almost every day. On the east coast of the U.S., there's the Appalachian Trail, which is 2,190 miles and goes through 14 states. I'd like to try a section of it some day.

The Rule of the Land: a review
Canoes came back to Britain through American influence. They were known in prehistoric times, but fell from favour and were replaced by the rowing boat. But the Welsh kept their coracles.

The Rule of the Land: a review
Strange that canoe is often associated with Native Americans, yet it comes up in the United Kingdom.
Has Brexit run its course, or is it still a process that remains incomplete? I realize it is complicated.
