A welcome addition to a literary genre in which I have dabbled… Mark unravels the twisted, doughy story of the ‘traditional Czech’ trdelník.

In Słubice 🇵🇱(the Dammvorstadt suburb of Frankfurt an der Oder before 1945). It was irresistible to mention it and include a picture in a book about borders and borderlands. Changed borders, as in western Poland, can involve attempts to erase the past.

Whenever I’m there I try to imagine what it was like - Friedrichstraße was a curious interzone of a place. I’ve been to the Tränenpalast museum several times.

Leaving Armenia on a flight at some awful hour in the early morning. It’s been hectic but interesting and it will leave a lasting impression. Some political thoughts - but also appreciation for the friendliness of the people, the beauty of the mountains and the ancient heritage.
In the chamber of the Armenian parliament this morning.
Tenth Century monastery at Noravanq, Armenia 🇦🇲
Republic Square in Yerevan, Armenia 🇦🇲. Meetings today at the Foreign Ministry and an interview with the Prime Minister. To the border tomorrow.
5pm TODAY on #Yesterday Secret Nazi Bases s2 Ep 6 of 8: Secrets of Hitler's Castle When the Nazis took Ksiaz Castle in #Poland, it wasn't for the view. Secret staircases & lifts were built, while underneath, a vast network of tunnels was taking form. #History #WW2 #KsiazCastle

The book is off to the printers but I’m still venturing to new borders - I’m on my way to a place it’s virtually impossible to reach with a U.K. passport without flying…
Got my hands on a copy of the borders book by @JonnElledge - every bookshelf should have a copy, and a gap next to it for when ‘Borderlines’ is available in the wild… congrats to Jonn on his achievement.
Karl von Czoernig's ethnographic map of the Austrian Empire is what peak cartographic performance looks like

Some very nice news. I sat with my dad in the new care home. It was the first time I had seen him in a year. We had 3 precious hours together. His memory has retreated, but he was pleased to see me which was a concern. x.com/historianblood…
Finally, the trauma is over. Dad is in a care home that specialises in dementia related cases. He has a room with a window overlooking the river. The family members are utterly exhausted but relieved. Thank you for all the kindness expressed this week.

As I already expected, Pixie will need surgery on Monday, but that should hopefully mean she will fully recover. She's a really brave girl and a fighter working hard to get better, taking her moments to recuperate & even walking voluntarily into the pet carrier for the vet visit.
@cskwriter @BastonBorders If you checked out the Intershop kiosk you had to hope that the Zollfahndungs team wouldn't jump on the train at the first station actually in the West!
@BastonBorders Imagine that the S-Bahn side (the smaller shed) was "domestic" GDR traffic and the larger shed was the "international side". A sort of mini-Wall divided the two train sheds. You could change S-Bahn lines or take the tunnel (still in use) to the U-Bahn, or check out the Intershop.
@BastonBorders As a kid, I thought it was scary. You went down into a tunnel which was this creepy crowded maze. Very disorienting. Exit via the Tränenpalast was less grim than entry. The whole processing experience was meant to be intimidating, the soldiers, the mirrors, etc.
@BastonBorders The first time I entered the DDR, I did so via the entry point from the Friedrichstraße U-Bahn station. (At the time, the S-Bahn was solely for exit.) Revisiting the Tränenpalast brings back many memories.
