This is shameless promoting of my own thread. And of a topic I think is great.
MNHQ let us have a History Club because amazing exciting posters were starting threads like Ways of Dying in 1665 or Roman MN or about finding Richard III in a Leicester carpark, and the threads were getting really long.
So, History Club is here:
www.mumsnet.com/Talk/history_club
(And, erm, I have a thread about historical Christmas traditions which is probably deadly boring but I am arrogant and wanky enough to hope maybe some people have missed it and might like it. Or might humour me. Or something. It's www.mumsnet.com/Talk/history_club/1629576-Christmas-in-History-which-traditions-events-stick-out-for-you).
Nicely done?
