Tech View: Nifty forms a Gravestone Doji pattern to signal indecisiveness

I think I’d rather keep that for my young Jarllan headcanon if you don’t mind.

They met at Glastonbury and when Jared went back home, he nagged his mom to find his new Swedish friend a nearby cottage to rent during the summer. One day his eeeeevil stepdad, Rex Harrison, told him in the bluntest of ways he’d be spending yet another year at Downside School, the Catholic boarding school where they gave the boys cold showers every morning and would call them only by their numbers (I took some liberties there, that was Ladycross basically). Even though his mother had made different promises. 

So Jared, being the argumentative type, tried to… argue his way out of yet another year away from home while struggling to forgive his mother for her lie and to justify her shipping him off to a boarding school “because she was in love and happy and that’s all that mattered”. Frustrated, he stormed out of the house and ran to Stellan’s cottage in tears. Stellan freaked out asking if his stepfather had hurt him and swearing he’d kill him if he ever did; Jared just shook his head sobbing. He cried his heart out while Stellan soothed him and fell asleep in his arms, spending the night on his couch. 

The following morning Stellan wanted to wake up the redheaded baby on his couch with the smell of his favourite dish, scrambled eggs with mushrooms, but just as Jared woke and got a taste of his tasty breakfast, chaos ensued. A knock on the door and an infuriated Richard Harris yelling. 

“I had to stop shooting and caught the first plane as soon as your mother called, where the FUCK have you been all night?”  

(Ok random freaky info I just read on wikipedia concerning Downside school:  “In 2017 the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) began an investigation into the English Benedictine Congregation, including Ampleforth Collegeand Downside School. Ten individuals from the two schools, including monks, were convicted or accepted a caution for abuse. The final report released in August 2018 said that the abuse had been inflicted on pupils for over 40 years, but the schools had tried to cover up the allegations. Downside School has since instituted measures for protecting and safeguarding its students and appointed a new headmaster.” 

Dom Austin Corney (1887-1972), (pictured above), was born in London, educated at Downside and studied at Belmont. During his career, he was Head Master at Worth and Ealing, and served as parish priest at Little Malvern. He was honoured with the titular priorate of Bath in 1955.

This little photograph affords us a rare glimpse into life at Downside Abbey in the late nineteenth century. The archival component of the HLF 'Beacon of Learning' project is based not in the monastic library, but in the St Bede Centre - now renamed the St Bede Archive. But the Archive didn't start life as study space, but as a purpose built dormitory above the school refectory.

This photograph, taken at the end of the nineteenth century, shows one half of one of the dormitory bays (for more images of the dormitory, see: http://bit.ly/1YJVjIQ). Each bay was shared by two boys and contained their personal possessions and two single iron-framed beds. Sadly, we have not been able to ascertain which boys occupied bay '29' (see the small sign at the top of the photograph) or, indeed, where bay 29 was located in relation to the other bays.
