		<description><![CDATA[I was at a second-hand sale recently and I was lucky enough to find a stall where a young man was selling a large amount of Victorian Pennies. He is a coin collector and these were surplus to his requirements. I bought a few of the pennies because I love collecting Victorian items. Having coins like this are great inspiration as a writer and being able to hold in my hand something so old in my hand.
Below are some photo&#8217;s of two of the coins:
The first you can see Queen Victoria&#8217;s head. The first one has a younger portrait of the Queen (minted in 1885) and the second showing a much older Queen, minted just a few year later in 1901.

This is the first of my postings about the Exeter Bread Riots. The following is transcribed from Jan 12th 1854 Exeter Flying Post
&#160;
Riot at Exeter
A serious disturbance took place in this city on Monday. At about three o&#8217;clock in the afternoon a number of persons, consisting principally of women and children, but also comprising a great many men of that degraded class who have the credit, perhaps deservedly, or always being “up for a breach of the peace” when occasion serves, assembled in the West Quarter. They proceeded to the Lower Market, and from thence up &#60;something&#62; street and across South Street to the Cathedral Yard, the number increasing as they passed. There they commenced the work of destruction, the shop of Mr Barrett, baker, the windows of which were smashed, forming the first object of their attack.

Proceeding across the yard they passed up Catherine street, but here they did no damage. ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the best things about being a writer is you get to do lots of research. Of course you can get carried away doing too much! On one such occasion I got very into looking into the history of Victorian Exeter (I live near Exeter so I am very interested in the city).
Exeter has a rich and varied history but Victorian Exeter are some very interesting aspects to it.  During the Victorian period Exeter remained somewhat in the past. The rest of the country was busy with the Industrial Revolution but Exeter lagged behind. However that didn&#8217;t mean things were boring. In 1854 there were some bread riots. The poor Exeter could not afford to buy bread and started to protest. It quickly turned into riots.
The unrest didn&#8217;t last long and quickly quashed by the Militia (there was no police force at the time) but what happened on that fateful ...]]></description>
