[edit]Moisturizer effect on skin
[edit]Moisturizing lotions are mainly intended to improve the skin, but can also harm it. How often should we moisturise? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisturizer#Effect_on_the_skin — Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.209.252.46 (talk) 10:37, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Walking near King's Cross this morning, I chanced upon a tablet affixed to the wall of a house in Keystone Crescent. It explains how Battle Bridge (which I thought was no more than a bridge over the railway) crosses the river Fleet (hence Fleet Street) and commemorates an engagement between Queen Boadicea and the Romans in AD 60. I don't know if it was her last campaign, but she is buried under platform nine at nearby King's Cross station. Battle Bridge used to be the name of the district, but it was changed to King's Cross in 1836 when the eponymous memorial to the Prince Regent was erected. As traffic increased, in 1845 it went the way of Temple Bar and Euston's Doric arch (although Temple Bar is back in a slightly different location). The tablet says "Keystone Crescent has the smallest radius of any crescent in Europe and is unique in having a matching outer and inner circle." So are there any curvier crescents on other continents? 81.139.213.56 (talk) 10:39, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
