  • Sir Bobby Charlton
    EDUCATION PACK 2019 Activity 1 Matchbox Memories Activity 2 A Living For Northumberland Day 2019, we are running Northumbrian Legend ‘Matchbox Memories’ - an initiative with which we would like to get schools involved. – Sir Bobby Charlton We are inviting schoolchildren to write their favourite memory of Northumberland, so far in their lives, on a plain white matchbox. Alternatively, they could write it on a piece of paper and a teacher could then write on the boxes, as these are quite small. Another option is for children to take a matchbox home and collect a matchbox memory from a parent, or elderly family member. In this way, they can take part in an oral history exercise. We then wish to collect the memory boxes and put as many as possible on display. The children can add their name, or the name of the person who has given them their special memory, if they wish. We have a limited number of matchbox memory boxes available, but they can be bought at Amazon, if needs be. We could also possibly partner a school with a local sponsor, if we can find one for you. We’d love to have pictures of children working on their matchbox memories, or all holding one aloft for a photo. We will try to arrange for certain collection points, if you take part. This is a very special way to being generations together and find out what people have found special about Northumberland, past and present. We hope you have fun with it. One of the most famous Northumbrians alive today is a footballing legend and one of the few Englishmen to have won the World Cup football trophy.

AND NEW YORK: 15 EAST 16th STREET 1890 All rights reserved PRINTED BY SPOTTISWOODE AND CO., NEW-STREET SQUARE LONDON TO MISS RHODA BROUGHTON PREFACE THE studies in this volume originally appeared in the “St. James’s Gazette.” Two, from a friendly hand, have been omitted here by the author of the rest, as non sua poma. One was by Mr. RICHARD SWIVELLER to a boon companion and brother in the lyric Apollo; the other, though purporting to have been addressed by Messrs. DOMBEY & SON to Mr. TOOTS, is believed, on internal evidence, to have been composed by the patron of the CHICKEN himself. A few prefatory notes, an introductory essay, and two letters have been added. The portrait in the frontispiece, copied by Mr. T. Hodge from an old painting in the Club at St. Andrews, is believed to represent the Baron Bradwardine addressing himself to his ball. A. L.

Michael Hunter B.A. - Archaeological and Anthropological Consultant - Baron Richard Dufton B.A. - Dedication This work is dedicated to the memory of an Elven Princess of the House of Llewelyn who opened her heart in love, threw the doors of Elphame wide and gave birth to the Sovereign Dragon Nation once more; and to the Grail Maidens and Dragon Princesses who are the sole and rightful custodians of Eternity’ Extracts from this collection first appeared in Mr. Laurence Gardner's book 'Genesis of the Grail Kings' with the kind permission of HI&RH Prince Nicholas de Vere, who also formerly permitted further extensive essay and research material, and archival extracts from the Dragon Collection to form the bulk of Mr. Gardner's September 1999 'Nexus Lectures' and his next book 'Ring Lords of the Dragon' which, although due to be published by Element Books in September 2000, has now apparently either been abandoned or renamed’ From Transylvania to Tunbridge Wells Frontispiece "The Beast, the Dragon, the terrible monster, is the disguise of the beloved; the horror to be overcome itself is, or contains, the Reward’ Beauty and the Beast must be conjoined’ The old tag that a serpent becomes not a Dragon save by devouring another serpent, has an Alchemical sense: These are the two Dragons, male and female: they destroy one another, or one destroys the other and a new and mightier one is born, a fiery wonder: A Phoenix (traditionally depicted as having red and gold plumage*), a leaping glory, a STAR of dream ascending to the throne of the world.
