Very interesting! I frequently incorporate early modern elements into my daily attire and now, thank you very much, I know something about their history. Also, struck by Prof Welch's idiosyncratic frequent use of the word 'there', evidently as a sort of emphatic end-of-sentence marker typical of ancient languages. Ancient Chinese 'zhe ye', for example, has that same precise function. Curious.

The success of cricketer Moeen Ali, first in county cricket and from 2014 as a key member of the England X1 may explain in part when long unruly beards became fashionable.

What a mess. Why does this woman talk like this. She lost her Americaness.
I just came here because of Florence.

Funny, her brother John Stockwell, is the American actor/director who starred in Christine, Top Gun (briefly), Stag, and Blue Crush. He was/is so handsome. She has been living in England since the 80's. Wow, her American accent is gone.
