"Theron, Tyrant of Acragas, was an Olympic chariot race champion who schemed his way to power by hiring and training men with public funds that were destined for the construction of a temple to Athena. He defeated the Carthaginian invaders in the Battle of Himera (480 BC)."

You believe #Covid is real?
How strange, when I went to #Africa, I was expected to have several jabs to avoid killer diseases due to unhygienic conditions. Meanwhile, the third world being trafficked into our communities isn't asked for so much as a passport.

Something not oft realized at Caernarfon Castle's Walls, is the fact they could fit in ballista or [later] bombardier units. It may have been a case of 'just barely,' with a ballista, however one or two of these well placed could easily venture to take out a nice chunk of enemy warriors.
Once, #London's market pubs were lively & full of character. Now, they like the market trade itself, seem to be but a memory that will soon disappear along with the hero's who made their legacy a reality.
