Samuel Pepys (by alaric)
I'd always been vaguely aware that Phil Gyford, an interesting fellow I had the pleasure of meeting through my time with UpMyStreet.com nearly a decade ago, ran a web site that told you what the famous diarist Samuel Pepys was doing three hundred and forty three years ago today.
However, it wasn't until I saw his blog posting about it today that I realised just how much work he's put into it.
WOW.
Well worth a visit, even if you're not into history...
