             BOUDICA
Queen_Boudica_by_John_Opie.jpg
 
 The great heroine of the British came to the world around the year 30, somewhere in the land inhabited by the Icenos, a tribe of Celtic origin that was distributed by the old region of East Anglia (present Norfolk and Suffolk).

It was a warrior queen of the Icenos, who led to several British tribes, including their neighbors the trinovantes, during the greater uprising in Britania against the Roman occupation, between years 60 and 61 d. C, during the reign of Emperor Nero. These facts were narrated mainly by two historians, Tacitus (in his Annals and in the life of Julio Agricola) and Dion Casio (in Roman History).

Boudica took up arms and fought energetically with her warriors, against the Romans.


In the year 60 occurred the death of Prasutagus. His wife remained as regent, ready to protect the inheritance of his daughters before the insistent requests of the Romans, who demanded for themselves the annexation of the iceno territory and an abundant fortune, that included the dowry managed by the now queen Boudica.

She died in 61 Watling Street in Britannia.

    Edward  VIII + Wallis Simpson    image.jpg


Was king of the United Kingdom and the dominions of the British Commonwealth and emperor of India, he was born in 1894 and died in 1972.


Edward fell in love with Wallis Simpson, an American celebrity. She was born in 1896 and died in 1986.


Eduardo caused a constitutional crisis when he proposed marriage to Wallis Simpson. UK prime ministers and domains opposed marriage, saying that the people would never accept her as queen. In 1936, King Edward VIII unexpectedly abdicated the throne to marry the love of his life, Edward's behavior prior to his decision to abdicate from the British Royal Family, and led to the "abdication crisis" in Britain. In 1937, the happy couple married and embarked on a jet-setting life in Paris, meanwhile referring to themselves as "W.E.”--Wallis and Edward---1936-1973

AN ICE-HOCKEY MATCH (SELECTIVIDAD)

AN ICE-HOCKEY MATCH (161)
            Last year, I went to an ice-hockey match with many friends. I wasn't sure if I would like it but I was quite impressed when it finished.
            It was played in Jyväskylä (Finland) while we were on an exchange. Our Finnish partners invited us, so we were 50 friends. We bought some snacks and we went to our seats. I had never seen an ice-hockey match, so I didn't know what it would be like.
            As soon as the match started, the crowd went wild and cheered the players who were beating each other trying to win. Everybody clapped enthusiastically each time the local team scored a goal. The atmosphere was quite happy and I also started to clap when the local team had a high score, even though I don't like sports.
            I have to admit that the match lived up to my expectations, so I hope I will be able to go to another one someday.
