Nice Comment
I agree Mrs B. That's such an insult
Such an insult to that surgeon!
Steven, a fascinating video of Henry 5 arrowhead removal. "Praise be to god" strikes me as foolish, especially when doctors, nurses, lab workers, and even the janitor contributes to the grasping of life from death's door and nary an expression of gratitude to those who perform well under pressure.
I was taught this story in school but I couldn't then have imagined how it was done. But it made me giggle that as the arrowhead was extracted from the Kings face the priests and courtiers all shouted praise be to god, forgetting the brilliant surgeon John Bradmore who really saved the Kings life.
A beautiful old video, Stephen!
I only knew about him from other narrowboat YouTubers
Yes, but his move isn't permanent as far as I understand. He's back home here on Vancouver Island recovering from injury & avoiding the Brit virus situation.
Yeah, I've been watching him as well. The idea of giving up living in a house and moving permanently onto a narrowboat intrigues me no end. His Vlogs are a little bit short for my liking.
My favs are the Well Deck Diaries and Floating Our Boat but the best is Foxes Afloat
Interesting to watch.
I'm following Canuck On The Cut on Wordpress, & Twitter. He has a long boat & travels the Brit canals, seasonally, but he's from right here in BC..
