http://thelostvictorian.blogspot.com/2016_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 20 December 2016. 8220;There is probably a smell of roasted chesnuts and other good comfortable things all the time, for we are telling Winter Stories – Ghost Stories, or more shame for us – round the Christmas fire.”. Charles Dickens, Telling Winter Stories, 1859. Every year at about this time, I tend to turn my reading to ghost stories. Okay, who am I kidding? After the success of A Christmas Carol. Dickens took to publishing festive ghost stories annually in the periodical All the Year Round.

The Lost Victorian: June 2015
http://thelostvictorian.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, 18 June 2015. Finally Facing My Waterloo. It's quite a momentous day in history today (18 June 2015), as today marks the bicentenary of the Battle of Waterloo. One of the most pivotal battles in European history. Events and re-enactments are set to continue until the 21st. And now, finally, I've completed the set, much belatedly. If you're one of the stalwarts who bought and enjoyed the game, and perhaps still does, then I present to you the Austria army list. Austria Army List Link. You'll hav...

Is This The Court Of The Exchequer? October 25, 2013 · 10:44 am. From Bias Free Of Every Kind. Back to Trial by Jury, once I’ve dusted the cobwebs off the witness box. The usher’s song, ‘Now, jurymen, hear my advice’ didn’t teach me much, except that this particular usher has a decided partiality for the plaintiff. I wonder if Gilbert, in his years of sporadic legal practice, saw much evidence of this? 8216;Now, jurymen, hear my advice. All kinds of vulgar prejudice. I pray you set aside. When First My O...

Monthly Archives: January 2015. January 6, 2015 · 11:34 am. In Westminster Hall I Danced A Dance. Two entries in a year – shameful. I’m going to do this daily now, I swear it, if it should kill me. So – verse 2 of the Judge’s song in. Contains a number of interesting allusions. The struggling young barrister isn’t getting any briefs, so ‘In Westminster Hall I danced a dance/Like a semi-despondent Fury/For I thought I never should hit on a chance of addressing a British jury’. All Hail, Great Judge! Join ...

Monthly Archives: November 2013. November 12, 2013 · 9:49 am. Is This The Court Of The Exchequer? Uh oh With the entrance of the Defendant in. Comes my first misapprehension of the Victorian era – that trials for Breach of Promise would be tried in the Court of the Exchequer. As mentioned below, it would have been a King’s Bench matter. English common law courts before the 1873 Act. In Westminster Hall I Danced A Dance. When I, Good Friends, Was Called To The Bar. All Hail, Great Judge! The Cats Meat Shop.
