Elizabethan London

Elizabethan London
Tyburn was an infamous execution spot west of London, used since medieval times. The Tyburn "tree" - a unique, multi-person gallows - erected in 1571 became a popular public spectacle, drawing crowds of thousands.Tyburn Tree blog is less blood-thirsty but hopefully topical, interesting and informative, if slightly bent to my personal topics of interest - books, writing, history, technology, with a smattering of politics and dash of pop culture, science and the downright strange. So "take a ride to Tyburn" and see what happens...

My skittish mobile throwrug....

 Meet "The Gremlin", a feral cat we took in at the behest of my sister-in-law. It's like living with a small throwrug that runs...

After four months lurking and skittering about the upstairs rooms in a panic everytime someone looked at him sideways, he has calmed down enough for me to grab a finally get a photo of him.

About a quarter second after the shutter snapped he scrambled away again. Probably see him again in a day or so....
