Horse Guards

seems to have been the epicentre of many changes in the Sixties and we can recognize several references to the city on this cover of Time Magazine released on 5th April 1966: on the one hand we can see the Houses of Parliament, the Union Jack, horse guards with their bear-skin hats, a man on the right under the one-way sign in the background who looks like the Prime Minister of the time, Harold Wilson, smoking his pipe.

wounding him. Attendants subdue Renfield, and Seward manages to get a rare night of sleep. Unfortunately, a telegram that Van Helsing sent to him goes awry and doesn't reach Seward until a day later. The telegram was an urgent request for Seward to guard over Lucy that night. Indeed, the night proves disastrous. Lucy's mother sleeps next to her out of concern for her daughter's well being.

And it went on: The site lists the ‘Soham Mob’ among its supporters. They are thought to have been among

En sueur, la flamme aux yeux, l’écume aux lèvres, l’uniforme déboutonné, une de ses épaulettes à demi coupée par le coup de sabre d’un horse-guard, sa plaque de grand-aigle bosselée par une balle, sanglant, fangeux, magnifique, une épée cassée à la main, il disait : Venez voir comment meurt un maréchal de France sur le champ de bataille ! Mais en vain ; il ne mourut pas. Il était hagard et

She is allowed to ride when a suitable horse is available for her, but -73- she does not have access to a horse of her own.

Is that why you’re limping?” The change of subject caught me off guard. “Yeah,” I said. “They had me for a couple of hours. Niall and Bill Compton killed them. Just so you know—it was Bill who killed Breandan, with my grandmother’s iron trowel.” Though the trowel had been in my family’s toolshed for decades, I associated
