Moon Timeline

 I wrote a timeline of the Moon 

Good Friday

 It’s Good Friday. I wondered why it's called that. The word good used to mean holy, so it was Holy Friday. We are not sure why people eat hot cross buns on this day. It used to be the custom to put crosses on all buns and loaves of bread, but the custom died out except for spiced buns eaten on Good Friday.

The British Fascists

 In 1923, a woman named Miss Rotha Lintorn-Orman founded the first Fascist movement in Britain. At first, she called her organisation the British Fascisti, but she soon changed the name to the British Fascists. Later, in 1932 Oswald Moseley founded the British Union of Fascists.

Many former suffragettes joined the Fascists. A former suffragette named Mary Richardson became head of the women’s section of the British Union of Fascists.
