Title: history

May be an image of text that says 'History is not there for you to like or dislike. It is there for you to learn from it. And if it offends you, even better. Because then you are less likely to repeat it. It's not yours to erase. It belongs to all of us!'

To many folk, not just the young, history is mostly unimportant, half-remembered names and dates of kings and battles they were forced to memorise at school. When it comes to modern history, even within living-memory stuff it's not what the yoof want to give their oh-so-valuable time to when there are reality shows to watch..

I have to say this Mike, but every time I look at one of your posts I think it's Scrumpy posting !  looking quickly, the avatar is similar - apart from the dog of course.
