Lord Likely: Stripped Down
Hello, history-lovers!
It has been a while since I wrote anything here, and for that I apologise. Really, I do. See that look on my face? That's how sorry I am.
However, in my absence I have decided that maybe this particular blog is rather redundant. Any announcements of any great importance regarding Lord Likely are usually made upon his own blog, leaving me sitting here twiddling my thumbs, which of course makes typing anything extremely difficult. I mean, have you ever tried typing while your thumbs are frantically twiddling all over the place? It is a fruitless task, dear readers.
So, I shall be closing down this blog, to focus my energies elsewhere. BUT! Do not be sad, dear readers. I shall still occasionally pop up over on Likely's page, and besides which we have just opened up a new Likely-based community called 'The Upper Crust', where I shall be employed behind the scenes, and where I may pop up and say 'hello' once in a while.
Thank you all for reading, and for your invaluable support. And keep reading The Astonishing Adventures of Lord Likely, because they are about to get a lot more astonishing - if that's even possible.
Goodbye!
- Professor Julian Syngen-Smythe,
editor.

His Lordship's Domain!
Hello, history-lovers!
With the Likely Centenary fast approaching, we thought it was high time that his lordship had his very own web address, worthy of his higher status.
So today we give you: lordlikely.co.uk - his very own domain, of which he is lord and master!
Hurrah!
Feel free to update any links accordingly, although I believe the old address automatically redirects readers to the shiny new name.
Enjoy!

The Likely Centenary: Coming Soon!
Hello, history lovers!
Well, today's chapter in The Astonishing Adventures of Lord Likely marks the NINETIETH entry in his lordship's journals thus far, meaning that ten entries from now, we shall hit the big one-zero-zero - 100.

Obviously, we feel such a milestone should be celebrated in typically spectacular style, as befitting everyone's favourite aristocratic adventurer.
But what to do, dear readers? A 'greatest hits' collection, detailing some of his lordship's finest moments? A tale from his lordship's past, such as the story about his schooldays we ran recently? Or just a mass orgy?
I am truly stumped, history lovers - so I am turning to you, my loyal readers, to help me decide. If any of the above ideas grab you, or you have another idea all of your own, then please leave a comment letting me know.
Please, help a poor professor out.
Many thanks!

Lounging With Lord Likely
Good day, history lovers!
Since I began transcribing Lord Likely's journals to the internet, I have been exploring ways to drive traffic to his blog, to improve the lives of internet surfers everywhere.
One means of rustling up readers is through blog directories, and two of the best of these, in my humble opinion, are MyBlogLog and Blog Catalog.
Both Lord Likely frequents both these directories, (here and here, fact fans!) and both sites are both easily within his top twenty referers. Good show, what?
MyBlogLog is excellent, and of course favoured by Ed from The Pisstakers, what with him utilizing the site for his marvelous MyBlogLog Sundays (soon to celebrate their 25th installment!) However, for my money (all seven pounds eighty-five pence of it), I have to say I prefer Blog Catalog.
Blog Catalog gets the edge due to it's excellent interactivity and added features, from it's discussion board to it's newest and most exciting feature: groups.
Groups allow members to set up a group to discuss anything at all, and invite fellow BC members over to join in various discussions. It's a great idea, and one that his Lordship has fully embraced by opening his own group, Lord Likely's Lavish Lounge. Here, members can come and chat with Lord Likely, relax and share a virtual glass of whisky. It has gotten off to a wonderful start, with topics of conversation ranging from which type of facial hair is best, to whether or not urine would make for a lovely perfume. Something for everyone, I feel!
If you have a blog, or even just love reading blogs, I recommend that you sign up to Blog Catalog immediately (it's free, and relatively painless) then you too can join the Lounge.
While you're at it, join MyBlogLog as well. It is really good. I have not tried the recently launched Blog Rush yet, and am not sure I will. Is it worth it, dear readers?
Anyway, must dash - I have to go and plump up the cushions in his lordship's lounge. See you there!
- Prof. Julian Syngen-Smythe
Oh! I almost forgot! It is Mr. Andy Fanton's birthday tomorrow! Why not pop over to his blog, i used my very best crayons, and wish him well. He does ever so much stuff for us here at Likely Towers. Well, sometimes he does. Go and say hello anyway!

A Linc to the Past
Hello, history lovers!
Well, there's been another jam-packed, swear-filled, history-stuffed chapter in Lord Likely's Astonishing American Adventure, today. It was so exciting, I dropped a pen!
Anyway, in the latest entry Likely meets a pre-Presidential Abraham Lincoln, and the pair seem to get on rather well. Maybe a bit too well?
There has been speculation and heresay about the late President's sexuality, which you can read about here. Does the encounter Lord Likely writes about confirm these previously unfounded rumours? I can only imagine that the history books will have to be rewritten, and all they will say is 'Gay'.
Maybe the beat combo Electric Six were not so far off in their imagining of Lincoln's life, after all:
Language, Timothy
Once A Week Man
Today's episode of Lord Likely's adventures will be the only one this week, right up until the weekend, we'd imagine.
Why?
Well, Mr. Andy Fanton, who works on my staff helping me to transfer Likely's journals to the web, is off to Manchester this week.
Why?
You're a curious bunch, aren't you? Well, as well as working on Lord Likely (so to speak), Mr. Fanton also maintains the web comic The Carrotty Kid. This creation of his also found success with an animation studio, Cosgrove Hall Films, resulting in this pilot episode getting made.
This week, Fanton returns to the studio, in Manchester, to talk further about cartoons and carrots, hence no Likely for a week. WE won't hold a grudge, however, and wish him well on his trip.
Read Mr. Fanton's recently reinstated blog for further details, and to pass on your own good luck messages.
While you wait for the next chapter, I thought I'd get a little teaser of Likely's next adventure, which will debut at the end of the month, once the American Adventure has been completed. So, we present to you now, the first look at The Curious Case of the Conjuring Calamity.

Ooooh...the tension!
I'm off to find my pen. See you all in a week, history lovers!

I feel I must also apologise for Likely's terrible attitude towards the coloured community. Of course, such attitudes were prevalent in Victorian society, but still it is rather shocking to see in print. Suffice to say, the opinions that tumble out of his lordship's mouth do NOT reflect those of any of us.

Face the Lord
Good day,history lovers!
As well as having his own MySpace profile, Lord Likely has now deemed Facebook worthy of his regal self, and has now joined up.
Go here to see his profile, and feel free to add him as your friend, to get all the latest Likely news and maybe just to have a nice chat with him, if he thinks you are worth the effort.
Have fun!

His Lordship Loses His Widgets
Hello, history lovers!
Today has been a busy day, as I have set about reorganising the sidebar on The Astonishing Adventures of Lord Likely.
I had become aware, through some emails and comments, that his Lordship's journals sometimes took an age to load - if at all - due in no small part to the overwhelming amount of widgets on the site.
So, today I made a drastic decision - OFF WITH THE WIDGETS!
No-one likes to lose their widget, but I felt it necessary to do so. If we were losing even one reader due to slow loading times, then that was one reader too many, and one poor soul denied the pleasure of reading his lordship's writings.
So, I cleared out the widgets, but replaced them with more tasteful, graphical links instead. Having done that, I then decided to update all the more graphic links (buttons, adverts etc) to keep them more in keeping with the style and tone of the journals.
I hope the fine people at Fuel My Blog, Humor-Blogs.com, The Pisstakers, MyBlogLog, Blog Catalog and Spicy Page do not mind me taking such liberties. The reciprocal links are still there, they are just dressed up rather differently, and given a Victorian twist.
I have also added a couple more Victorian ads, some more priase from the newspapers at the time and some other bits and bobs, so go and peruse the journals right now, and let me know what you think of it's new-look sidebar.
Now, I am off to a real bar.
Good-bye!
Prof. Julian Syngen-Smythe.
Update: I reinstated the Blog Catalog and MyBlogLog widgets, but much smaller this time. I missed seeing your beautiful faces.
Double Update: I have just added a 'Story So Far' recap on the sidebar of Likely's journals, so new readers can quickly catch-up on events in his lordship's latest adventures.

It's a funny old world...
Good evening, history lovers!
I hope you are feeling suitably satisfied with the resolution to last week's thrilling cliffhanger over on lordlikely.blogspot.com. I know I am!
Many thank to anyone who has supported his lordship over on humor-blogs.com. Thanks to you, his journals, like his proud Lord Palmerston, are rising quickly. And many thanks to Ed of The Pisstakers, who once again promotes his lordship with eloquence and wit. Huzzah!
In other news, I am contractually obliged to promote www.thecarrottykid.co.uk, a new(ish) webcomic/blog site developed by our very own Andy Fanton. Go there to read a bunch of comics, play a game AND to view this short cartoon, developed by Mr. Fanton, animated by real animators, and made with a view to a full series later on.
Will that ever happen? I do not know. But, despite my contractual obligations, it's all spiffing stuff. Really!
See you soon!

Interview With A Vampire (Vampire Not Included)
Hello, history lovers!
What exciting history news do I bring you today?
Well, BlogInterviewer.com, a site which does EXACTLY what it says on the virtual tin, have interviewed some fellow called Andy Fanton about The Astonishing Adventures of Lord Likely. Read the interview here, for some juicy behind-the-scenes chat. Then, rate the journals highly, so that everyone can see how thoroughly excellent they are. (And they are, of course.)
In other blog news, poor Ed from The Pisstakers (perennial friends of his lordship), is having some trouble with his computer, resulting in his fabulous site suffering a lack of updates. But still, you should go and visit the site anyway, as it is wonderful. Tell him Julian sent you.
That shall suffice for now. Until next time, keep historying!

At the Top of the Tree
Hello, history lovers!
It is with adrenalin pumping through my veins that I write today, as I am so overloaded with history that my excitement levels have reached critical. I really, ruddy love history, you know.
But first thing's first - it is a pleasure to announce that The Astonishing Adventures of Lord Likely has been selected as 'Blog of the Day' by those fine, fine folk over at Fuel My Blog. This is a wonderful honour for me, and I thank them very much.
Fuel My Blog is a fine website, and if YOU have a blog and have not joined their merry masses yet, I urge you to do so. You shall find a wonderful, warm welcome, and the chance to meet fellow bloggers from all over the globe. Even if you do not have a blog, you should still visit them anyway, as you will find a portal to a host of other wondrous blogs. Such as The Astonishing Adventures of Lord Likely, for example. Which is Blog of the Day today. Did I mention that already?
Click the beautiful award (which we won for being Blog of the Day today, as I may have already touched upon) to visit Fuel My Blog - NOW! And do not forget to fuel Likely's journals once you're there. I thank you.
Now, to history. Loyal Likelyiers may have already seen his lordship's latest entry, where he attempts to map out his family tree. This particular article made me moist with anticipation (I sweated a lot, you see) as it revealed a bit more history (which I love) and back story of our beloved lord. I was like a kid in a candy shop, except the candy was filled with HISTORY.
In addition to all this, my good friend Bill Blunt sent me a picture of a possible Likely sighting on an Italian restaurant's shop sign, in Ferryhill. Could it be his lordship, or one of his many relatives? Look for yourself below theses words I am writing now:

What do you think? Likely, or not?
Actually, this has given me an idea for an exciting competition, which I shall call Look-A-Likely. If any of you dear readers have stumbled upon a picture of someone who resembles our lordship, then please let me know, by either posting the picture in the comments section, or a link to the picture, or by e-mailing it to me via andy fanton at googlemail dot com The winner shall win....something. Something good, from my collection of historical artifacts, no doubt.
Get hunting!
- Prof. Julian Syngen-Smythe.

Lord Likely: HisSpace
In the ongoing quest to promote the extraordinary journals of Lord Likely to the world wide web, I have taken the liberty of setting up Lord Likely with his very own MySpace page.
I do not pretend to understand the ins and outs of this particular networking tool, which is home to a bewildering array of youths with unsightly piercings and hairstyles that are, quite frankly, intimidating. But I am led to believe it is highly popular, and a useful tool for reaching out and touching thousands of potential would-be history lovers.
The MySpace page will also feature exclusive blog entries, and also some music by that fine composer, Edward Elgar.
Please take a moment, if you are a member, to make his Lordship your friend. He will reciprocate, if you are deemed worthy enough.
Thank you.
- Julian Syngen-Smythe.

Welcome, Likely Readers!
Welcome!
I am Professor Julian Syngen-Smythe, renowned historian and writer of such history-packed books as The Renaissance: A Heck of a Lot of Drawings, How The Great Plague Was Not Really All That Great and Henry VIII - The Fuck King.
My recent work has been in transcribing the fascinating journals of Lord Likely, a Victorian aristocratic adventurer, from the diaries themselves to this here internet.
You can view these fascinating journals by visiting the blog entitled The Astonishing Adventures of Lord Likely, Aristocratic Adventurer. I highly recommend doing so right away. They truly are an astonishing read.
This blog you are reading now will focus on the trials and tribulations of transferring these great works to the internet, alongside some thorough academic study of the diaries' content.
It was be enormously interesting, even if I do say so myself.
I hope you enjoy your visit, and do not be afraid to leave me a comment or two to encourage further discussion about the enigmatic Lord Likely.
Good day.
