Nearly two decades! I did not imagine that when I wrote this for BBC News in 2003 about the launch of the website. news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/262158…
Some stats…
And with that, the first full 9½ year cycle of @samuelpepys' tweets ends, and the *second* 9½ year cycle of daily entries on pepysdiary.com. twitter.com/samuelpepys/st…
And so I betake myself to that course, which is almost as much as to see myself go into my grave: for which, and all the discomforts that will accompany my being blind, the good God prepare me!
@samuelpepys And that’s the end of @samuelpepys’ diary. Thank you for following along for the past 9½ years or so, or how ever long it’s been for you.
Here’s what happened in his life after 31 May 1669: pepysdiary.com/indepth/2012/0…
See you again from 1st January for 1660.
@mathowie Also baffling that to get to the advanced search you have to search for something on a normal page, then click “Advanced search”, and then enter your search term *again* in that modal window.
Today is a big day for @samuelpepys.
