50 years ago today I joined the Diplomatic Service. On the first day we were given this booklet, which turned out to be rather alarming for someone whose experience of abroad was mainly backpacking. By para 2 of the Introduction it was clear that there were pitfalls everywhere! 1

For me 'Landscape' has always been THE History Book, although you should totally read Carolyn's characteristically astute and funny essay to find out why she doesn't see it that way...
It's a joy & honour to have an essay reflecting on the legacy of 'Landscape for a Good Woman' (and 'The Tidy House') published alongside the same by Carolyn Steedman herself in the latest issue of Écrire l'histoire... @C_Berthezene @LarcaParis @CNRSEditions

Something I’ve learnt while moving around London on hot days: people care A LOT more about pregnant people than they do about old people. Worrying even on a personal level since I plan to be old for a lot longer than I plan to be pregnant
