"Unforgivable" by Francis H Powell
The book is divided into four parts, with four different confessions, which have different time settings, as well as locations. The killers are reluctant or unlikely killers in which fate has played them a terrible hand.
The first part is “The Modern Day killer” and is a confession in the first person by Michael Dawkins, an unremarkable man apart from the fact he believes he is a serial priest…

Watching History
Have you ever been to a re-enactment of a battle? I love history but I am strongly anti-military and ant-war and violence and any kind of glorification of war. Still…I thought it would be interesting to go to see a battle being re-enacted, with Napoleon involved. I live in France and had seen a poster for this event.
The event took place in a park. It was surreal arriving and seeing people…

A HOLIDAY FROM HELL
The location was great, easy access to both Switzerland and Germany. The setting was nice, surrounded by a forest. The swimming pool was great. But all of this came with a price, the Thursday night “entertainment”. Welcome to Camping du Lac de la Seigneurie.

A charming festival
In small confined patch of land, close to the Seine an unusual festival, called Au Bon Coin Festival is taking place in Thomery. There is a strong theme, with people walking about in Greek toga-like costumes (tebennos) looking like extras from a Percy Jackson film. The weather is generally kind. There are two main stages for this festival, one is dedicated to bands, while the other is dedicated…
