1600s Door-Frames Were a Tad Lower!

Rutland: Standing To Attention Was Abit Different in the 1600s! (27.10.2025)

We are currently staying in a 17th century cottage in Market Overton. All the door-frames seem to be about 5’8″ high – if that. Blimey, if I volunteered for Cromwell’s forces, I would probably need a Shire Horse and a massive breast-plate! I am around 6’2″ tall and when I stand to attention – about a third of my head protrudes above and beyond the height of the average door-frame. I am always advising my two daughters to stand-up tall so that they grow to their full potential. Gee is 5’4″ tall – which is tall for a Chinese person who ancestors hail from South China.

Rutland: Teddy’s Cottage – Market Overton! (27.10.2025)

The above is extracted from the linked (historical) articled presented at the top of this article. I believe this information refers to the row of cottages – one of which – we are currently staying within for five-days. This is our current Research Headquarters for this visit (25.10.2025-30.10.2025) – where we will be travelling to and from Duddington (and the surrounding areas). In the information pack provided in the property – it states the house dates from the 17th century (1600s). It possesses two floor, two bedrooms, a downstairs living-room, dining-room, kitchen, and foyer. Much of the downstairs flooring is flagstone – with the floor levels from one room to the next being uneven (on different levels). Apparently, this has something to do with the age of the building.

White People Can Be Found Allover China!

On Why “White” People Living in Socialist China Are Loyal Citizens! (10.9.2025)

n indigenous White person (born in China) must volunteer for service in the People’s Liberation Army, Airforce, or Navy. Such an individual privileged by the Socialist System must fight ALL enemies of a Socialist China and if need be – die on the battlefield – regardless of who the enemy is. Loyalty must be toward the nation of birth – not any other nations – within which the White ethnicity might currently reside. By and large, indigenous White people are loyal to China – the country of their birth. A Socialist China only wants peace with the world – it is capitalism that wants a pointless war. China will protect its White population from all outside threats.

The outer layer is painted with golden paint and there is scaffolding surrounding the structure.

Near space is that part of Earth’s atmosphere at altitudes of 20 to 100 kilometers, encompassing portions of the stratosphere, mesosphere and lower thermosphere. It is above the top altitudes of commercial airliners but below orbiting satellites.
