Some convicts found exile from their home country unbearable, and would try every escape route to make their way back.

Our latest podcast is getting great feedback (from my family!)

My dad, Peter Tangey, joined us to hear about Chorkles' testimony to the Victorian Royal Commission into Communism.

We also discuss some family drama when Dad tells the story of some ALP-DLP split induced biffo at his house.

I've done a poster with bubble writing.

It maps how bushrangers inspired fictional representations especially Captain Midni(gh)t(e)s.

It's simple really. The fictional Captain Midnite was inspired by the real Captain Starlight, who thought he inspired the fictional Captain Starlight, but that character was actually based on the real Captain Midnight.

I didn't get time to talk about during our latest podcast episode - but here's something I wrote about the Language of Stamps.

According to newspaper articles of the time there were secret meanings to stamps placed in certain positions on envelopes.

Like emojis today, it was difficult to find universally agreed definitions, but easy to offend.

Gerard and Celeste (from the podcast Stamps Aren't Cool) came on In Those Days to talk about their un-mutual love of stamps.

We read newspaper articles on stamps and relationships from #Trove. We learned a lot about stamps, the people who love them, & the people who love the people who love them.

A new episode awaits recording… just as soon as my voice returns.. 🙄
Don’t get many colds these days but…. 🥴

And here’s a clue - starting in 1928, the idea was more than 10 years in gestation, and really 'took off' after its debut… 😉

My friend Tim tried to walk from Melbourne to Castlemaine (~120km) in 2 days to settle an argument on how fast diggers walked to the goldfields.

Chinese prospectors often walked the journey from Robe to the Vic goldfields (~400km) to avoid the racist import tax in Melbourne.

People have recreated this walk in recent times:

The movie Chevalier is out this week in the US! It’s based on the life of one of my favorite historical figures, Joseph Bologne, the Chevalier de Saint-Georges. He was a champion fencer, composer, abolitionist, and the leader of the first all-Black regiment in Europe.

We talk about him in Episode 26 of the Dirty Sexy History podcast: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4owxOkpBd3VD0U4ZK6UYPN

We talk to to educational publisher Tim Carruthers about an historic journey to the goldfields, and his own attempted walk to Castlemaine.

Will we make it to Mt Alexander? Or will we claim that the journey is the destination?

Thanks to #Trove for the digitised articles and #StateLibraryVictoria for their collections on the #VictorianGoldfields.

Fascinating and delicious. 🤤

"A lot of Easter traditions – including hot cross buns and lamb on Sunday – stem from medieval Christian or even earlier pagan beliefs. The chocolate Easter egg, however, is a more modern twist on tradition."

Hello loves, latest My Love Letter Time Machine podcast episode out now. CW - Victorian alcohol abuse. Janie’s delight at at the family seaside day out is tempered by Emma’s increasingly unkind behaviour. This week Janie takes us to Cleepthorpes, then as now, probably the nearest bit of sandcastle sand to Sheffield. Absolutely love putting this episode together. Link: https://mylovelettertimemachine.buzzsprout.com/ (you should prob unfollow me if you don't want me bleating on about the pod).
