„And so to bed.“

#SamuelPepys #TheDiaryOfSamuelPepys Tod 1703

I enjoy following the real-time #SamuelPepys toots.

This one today outlines his feast yesterday in celebration of his being 'cut of the stone' which is 17th c lingo for surgery (without anaesthetic of course 😱) for a kidney stone.

Surviving that was quite a crap shoot. Probably could've used a bit of broccoli 🥦 in there somewhere though.

#SamuelPepys was born #OnThisDay 1633.

When his diary was first published it was an instant hit, but rumours soon spread about what had been cut and why.

"Strange to see how a good dinner and feasting reconciles everybody."
