#OTD in 1974 – Guildford Pub Bombing by the IRA leaves five people killed and a further 65 injured.

Four soldiers and one civilian were killed, whilst a further sixty-five were wounded. The bomb in the Horse and Groom detonated at 8:30 pm.

I have my audition for GSA this Sunday and I’m not sure at all how to feel.
Excited? I’m going somewhere I’ve never been before to do what I love in front of people who want to see me perform.
Scared? I’m going somewhere I only have a 1.8% chance of actually getting into, in front of people who have seen the best of the best pass through their doors.
I’m performing I’m Breaking Down from Falsettos, and I Don’t Care Much from Cabaret as my two song pieces, with the I belong to a culture speech from The Normal Heart by Larry Kramer.
Am I terrified? Yes. Am I exhilarated? Also yes. Am I prepared? No. Am I ready? Maybe.
Any thoughts?

The rough sketch and final engraving for 'The execution of Lady Jane Grey' by French artist Achille Devéria (1800 - 1857). A brilliant engraving but Jane wasn't beheaded with a sword.
Jane was named queen after the death of her cousin, King Edward VII. But the late king's oldest sister took her right as the next heir, deposing Jane after nine days on July 19, 1553. Queen Mary originally spared her life; Jane soon became perceived as a threat to the Crown when her father, Henry Grey, 1st Duke of Suffolk, became engaged with Wyatt's rebellion against Queen Mary's ambition to marry Philip II of Spain.
Lady Jane was executed on February 12, 1554, right after her husband, Guildford Dudley, the son of the chief minister under King Edwards VII, John Dudley, Duke of Northumberland. 11 days after the couple's death Jane's father was also executed.

Booker's Tower, Guildford, Surrey
In 1839 Charles Booker leased a plot of land in the corner of Guildford’s ‘Great Hilly Field’. There’s a clue to his purpose in the name of the site: Booker needed an elevated spot on which to build a ‘prospect tower’. After his death the adjacent land became the town’s cemetery, and the tower passed to the Burial Board (who were reluctant custodians). It later came into the control of the town…
