Today I wrote 147 words about James Lind - I've got all sorts of tiny topics to write about. And I've done my photos, and my dancing practice (the online dancing ended yesterday, for the summer or forever, but I'm trying to actually *remember* some of it!). Still no reading of library book, though.

during his time in the navy he had carried out what was one of the first ever clinical trials, giving different remedies to different groups of sailors suffering from scurvy in order to record what happened, and including the citrus fruits which eventually proved successful

Go you — and also James Lind!

He was a very clever man :)

Tiny topics sounds good! Are there a lot of history-related ones?

Theoretically anything Age of Sail (although generally from ~1700), but I do drift off into history of science (on the excuse that either Jack or Stephen would be interested), or generic local Georgian stuff which may be age but is certainly not Sail.
