An Evening of Sea Shanties
Timbers were shivered and mainsails were hoisted at our August meeting, when the “talk” was something a bit different. With no PowerPoint presentation in sight, George Tudor-Hart and his shipmates from the Colliers Wood Shanty Singers came and treated us to some traditional songs of the sea, with song sheets available so everyone could join in on the choruses. The picture is a bit ropey but gets a lot better from 11:00. Round about 50:00 you get treated to a hornpipe dance…

Islands of the Medway Estuary
Просмотров 932 месяца назад
A higher quality upload of Adam Taylor's talk that was livestreamed on 3rd July 2024. Adam is a keen canoeist who has paddled in pristine waters all over the world from Canada to Finland, but the area he most likes to explore is the muddy marshland of the Medway estuary, and this was the subject of his talk. Nowadays it seems a quiet place with its own distinctive flora and fauna, but in the pa...

The lecture explores why people were imprisoned for debt, what life was like in a debtor’s prison and how debtors were able to obtain their freedom. Note that we w...
Dandydays Arezzo report from TG5
Просмотров 503 месяца назад
Last weekend a contingent of Sheridanites attended a gathering in Arezzo, Italy, called "Dandydays". Now in its eighth year, this is a festival of finer dressing, though it was interesting to see that Italian dandies don't necessarily take the styles of an earlier era as a role model, as NSC types probably do. Instead they love bright colours, dramatic facial hair and opulent accessories (I've ...
Padstow May Day Celebrations
Просмотров 4824 месяца назад
Given that our May meeting fell on May Day itself, I wanted to offer a brief look at the extraordinary May Day celebrations in Padstow, Cornwall, which I have been lucky enough to witness. It’s old, complicated, with various mumming characters, and the whole town gets involved, dividing into two teams, each following a different ‘Obby ‘Oss. There are a number of songs, which are sung pretty muc...
Decadence in Comics: An Introduction

Covering attempts at transferring decadent literature to the comic form, from A Rebours to Dorian Gray to Gabriele D'Annunzio, along with a little bit of horror and reflections on...

The Windsor Uniform: George III’s Jeans and T-Shirt
Просмотров 3668 месяцев назад
At our January meeting the speaker was our own Zack Pinsent (or "TV's Zack Pinsent", to give him his full title). As you probably know, some years ago Zack decided to eschew modern clothing and wear nothing but Regency attire, and his talk examines the form of dress known as the Windsor Uniform, what it was, how it developed and how he went about researching and recreating it.

Here’s a taster from Essex of what to expect: "The third and final volume of the unexpurgated diaries of Sir Henry 'Chips' Channon covers the period 1943-57 in which Chips formally has to confirm divorce proceedings from his w...

    Well done. I thought at first I was going to see an upper crust pisstake but after the initial sniggering comments it settled down well. In some ways the whole thing is not that unique, the massive Saddleworth Rush Cart, the Knutsford May Queen, the Castleton May procession, Minehead and its Obby OSS, the Britannia Coconut Dancers in Bacup, Queensferry Burry Man and a good few others have all endeavoured to survive despite establishment attempts to suppress. Not forgetting the various Mummers and Football games such as Ashbourne. The sniggering snide remarks usually aimed at Morrison Dancing don’t go down well in Saddleworth where the Morris Men are brawny 6 footers wearing clogs and taking no none sense from any one foolish enough to comment. Teams from all over the country turn up to dance and pull the Rushcart up the hill to the Church above the town. Any way, well done.

    As a visitor to Padstow on May day I can echo the feeling of the maker of the Wicker man. The locals were not rude but they did not have the normal politeness that most give to strangers. An example was that a local barman would not serve one promptly even if it was to his financial benefit. I loved their celebration because it is the only traditional event that I have witnessed where the celebration still has some deep seated emotional involvement as opposed to a re-enactment of a distant past event.

    • @johntimbrell
      @johntimbrell 4 месяца назад

      @@newsheridanclub My experience was over a period of 20 years from the 1980s. The Cornish people in my experience still have a love hate relationship with 'foreigners' from the other side of the Tamar but my assessment of the May Day celebration, or perhaps better described as observance, was that it still was just more than re-enacting the past. I once went from Padstow's May day to watch Helston's Furry Dance. I found that that was just a re-enactment of a past tradition which is had no relevance today. This is similar to most other re-creations of the past. After watching your summary of the History of Padstow's May Day I have formed this opinion. The supposed meaning of the present day version of the song is a conglomeration of past events which meant something to the people at the time but mean very little to the present day people who sing it today. This is not an unusual phenomenon. Most people who sing hymns in Churches rarely know the meaning of the words they sing. I asked a devout regular churchgoer if they still said the Apostle's creed each Sunday. She said no and I believe that she did not know what the Apostles creed was even though she chanted it each Sunday. My assessment is that the people of Padstow are a bit remote from other centres and become somewhat insular and close knit over each winter. The 1st of May is when they 'allow' foreigners into their lives because they need them to survive. They sing THEIR song which has no meaning to the present day singers except that it is THEIR song and the meaning has little importance. One difference between the Padstow event and other such events where the meanings of celebratory songs are sung is that there is no controller in overall charge of the group. I'm thinking of our churches or our state where hymns and Land of Hope and Glory are sung. at the last night of the Proms. From what I have written one might assess that I am being cynical. I am not. I think that there is value in communities being close and caring for each other. That is the good side of human nature. Dare I state what I see as the bad side? It is that the people of this country do not stop the controllers using our taxes to fund wars that are no concern to us the ordinary people. Our controllers are making huge sums to line their pockets to support arms manufacturers who send the weapons to such as Ukraine and Israel.

    I believe that the common ancestor of the Egyptian kings and Europeans lived in the Caucasus about 9,500 years ago,” Scholz said. - About 7 thousand years ago, his direct descendants settled throughout Europe. And someone got to Egypt and became a pharaoh. It turns out, however, that, starting with his great-great-grandfathers, the ancestors of Tutankhamun, and he himself, were persons of Caucasian nationality. Maybe Georgians, Ossetians, Dagestanis.

    I have just returned from Tate Britain after seeing the Sargent exhibition. I was overjoyed when I noticed the Rex Whistler mural had re opened after it had been closed due to someone noticing a small black boy in the painting that they believed had racist intent. Inside were two huge screens where they played a drama depicting Whistler being interviewed by a zealous women accusing him of racism and questioning his reasons for including such scenes. At the end the commentator accused Whistler of joining the war to seek fame and as we know was subsequently killed by a mortar bomb. I assume that the sole purpose of this film was to destroy his reputation and legacy. The mural was poorly lit and difficult to appreciate and I guess was intended by the Tate to ensure that no one enjoyed the artwork. We seem to have reached the depths of a new low when such a distinguished artist has been cancelled due to someone’s warped belief that this 20 year old man had any evil intent.

He wasn't "just a little bit" behind on taxes (read the news coverage about it and make your own judgement). He also, to this point, still owes me money. I once bought something at his Fulham shop and never received it. He gave me some weird excuses a couple of times why it wasn't ready, then, all of a sudden I couldn't reach him anymore and the shop was closed. After a bad Google review, he reached out and suggested to refund the money. I removed the review, but never got the money - he never replied again.
