I LOVED Dennis Severs House in London! I went there in 2011 and it was a highlight of my holiday. I tell everybody about it! I do volunteer work at a Heritage house museum and I wish the curators would follow Dennis Severs model.

Oh yes , You have visited it ! Very nice ! I can imagine that it was a highlight of your trip ! It was mine too , yes trying to be inspired by some of the beautiful ideas they used would really make a difference in heritage houses , and museums.Make them so much more entertaining! I ve noticed though , in some french classic hotels/museums , which one can visit, they do more a sort of theatrical display than before a bit like at the dennis severs house, there is always the difference that one cannot wander everywhere in teh rooms and be so close to precious objects, but things seem to move slowly.. I hope they will imitate than in your House in Australia !

I’m always jealous about people like the guy in the window (1:50), who’s minding his own business (probably something mundane), completely unaware of the treasure shop he has in front of his eyes. While I’m sitting here… Far, far away… Dreaming of visiting that shop xD.

"vis-avis la rue" is still used a l'ile Maurice in Mauritian Creole, as well as other "Middle French" words and expressions. Soulier instead of chaussure, brassiere instead of soutien-gorge, astere instead of en ce moment etc. I collect antique French books and i encounter many such peculiarities :)

Ah oui! I didn't know that! that's nice to know they use our old words and expressions we unfortunately don't use anymore. Oui c'est vrai, It's also interesting to see similarites between 18th century and modern english , it has surprised me a lot in my readings. Thank you for stopping by !

Preservation and Conservation are wonderful tools for saving historical books. *Please, share your process. It's so satisfying to watch conservation methods.* I thought one moment that I might have a career in preservation and conservation of antiquities, but I think here (US), you have to pass a chemistry class, so that was out for me, sadly. I would have looked for work in New England.

I'm not a specialist but Ive seen kit and ways online for amateurs who want to maintain their old books , so next time I will do things I will for sure share them from an amateur enthusiast perspective if it might help others . These jobs are so fascinating,yes it's so satisfying to see people restoring and helping these precious pojects and books continuing their lifes for others to enjoy in the next centuries.... Oh really? I didn't know that chemistry was part of the exams.....That's sad....
