@MissJamesHist Lucy these are brilliant! Bruce Bairnsfather would be very impressed - and happy to know that more than 100 years after his cartoons were first published they are being used for educational purposes and are inspiring a new generation! Well done Year 8 !!

@PTApostcards @PaulSuttonKing He didn't like the one at Exeketer Airport either, at Clyst Honiton. It had too many exits, but I see they've blocked one off now!
@PTApostcards @PaulSuttonKing Easy to get to from the M5. The roundabout is odd, because it seems the roads go right though it. I don't know why, but my later father never bothered with lane control anyway and gave the excuse he was from Crediton.

Lost London Types : from a series of postcards that captured the people working on the city’s streets a century ago…First off, the Messenger Boys. A thread for you to enjoy… Why not retweet your favourite?
OMG I was sitting at Dad's old computer in my lounge and looked across to the cupboard with my photo albums in and thought "That's odd, there's another little cupboard door underneath it", so I opened it AND IT'S FULL OF UNSCANNED PHOTO ALBUMS!
💜Mystery Faces🤔from my #OldPhotos collection💜 Who are these people? Strangers/Ancestors? 💜A moment in their lives, unknown, unnamed unless you recognise them?🤔 #FamilyHistory 💜More new additions💜Promotional Card/Theatre? What do you think 🤔 & do you recognise them???
I tweet about Britain's postal paths (walked by rural postmen and women in the past) and other ancient paths, folklore, and the joy of handwritten letters. Follow me if you're of a like mind. Picture: Scottish postie Silver Beedie on her Highland route.
100 years before emails people would send their important messages on the back of postcards. Rather than a boring note to the local Gas Works, you might append your complaint on the back of a picture postcard of your favourite MP. You could write a book on this card alone.
My latest postcard purchase. I try and focus on buying only named cards but this is such a lovely pin sharp image, with the soldier glancing perhaps a little apprehensively to his right. Taken in a studio in Deal.
Pleased to have been appointed to the board of The Historian magazine (@histassoc) with particular oversight for local history. I'd be interested to hear proposals for short pieces on your local history research. history.org.uk/publications/c…
