It'll be perfect for the coming summer months and is a great addition to my ever-growing #collection. 🤠 (we need more hat emojis!)

  18. Away, ye gay landscapes, ye gardens of roses!
    In you let the minions of luxury rove,
    Restore me the rocks where the snowflake reposes,
    Though still they are sacred to freedom and love:
    Yet, Caledonia, beloved are thy mountains,
    Round their white summits though elements war;
    Though cataracts foam ’stead of smooth-flowing fountains,
    I sigh for the valley of dark Loch na Garr.

    —George Gordon, Lord Byron, “Lachin Y Gair”

  20. Byron declared that he was “half a Scot by birth, and bred / A whole one”. To what extent should we privilege such a claim? In what ways did Byron engage with a Scottish poetic heritage, if at all?

    Impressively good. The little electric railway across #Byron Bay, the town, in New South Wales is described as working on quite small batteries. Basically car components repurposed. Short run, and level, of course.

  32. The view looking north on the Durham Heritage Coast at Seaham in North East England. The poet Lord Byron visited here in 1815 when he married Anne Isabella Milbanke at nearby Seaham Hall. Lord Byron and Ann had a child who they named Augusta. She would later become Augusta Ada King, Countess of Lovelace, acknowledged as a brilliant mathematician and writer. She is chiefly known as an early pioneer of computing, working on Charles Babbage's proposed mechanical general-purpose computer, the 'Analytical Engine'.
