An excellent and informative podcast and Q &A. Also, nice to see you again, so soon after the AGM! As ever, Ireland is never far away and Miranda's reference to the speed with which the Irish garrisons surrendered after Drogheda and Wexford reminded of a quote by General Sherman in another civil war, two hundred years later, "War is cruelty, there is no use trying to reform it, the crueler it is the sooner it will be over."

I have not heard of Miranda Malins before, but I am glad I have now, I am feeling like buying her books
As always an interesting video. I will definitely include Huntingdon on my itinerary for your 64th(?) anniversary
It's such a shame Dobson the greatest English painter of that time didn't pain the family.
