Good afternoon to you all! As those who know me will realise, kleines c likes to do jigsaws, just like Her Majesty the Queen. Indeed, I see all the members of 'The Third', metaphorically speaking, as jigsaw pieces. This is why, when I reply to a particular thread, I often address several members directly, because I am mentally fitting you all into my jigsaw image of the third, as opposed to the first, or, indeed, the second. For the record, I also tend to use the same approach offline, as long as I can remember everyone's names.

Here is a jigsaw for you all. You do not have to do it, but how about Queen Elizabeth I & Her People (19:30)?
Due to unprecedented demand from around the world, everyone reading 'The Third' is cordially invited to see Queen Elizabeth I & Her People at the National Portrait Gallery (NPG) promptly at 19:30 (BST) on Friday 11 October 2013. The exhibition explores the remarkable reign of Queen Elizabeth I through the lives and portraiture of her people. The Elizabethan period spanned over forty years and saw a significant expansion in trade, the creation of new industries, a rise in the middle classes and the development of a remarkable literary culture. These changes were brought about by the achievements of many different individuals, both at court and those working in the cities and towns and this exhibition explores their fascinating personal stories.
National Portrait Gallery - Elizabeth I & Her People
The show includes many outstanding paintings of Elizabeth I and her courtiers including explorers, statesmen and soldiers and enchanting portraits of the queen’s female attendants and maids of honour. Visitors will also come face-to-face with lesser-known Elizabethans including butchers, goldsmiths, personal servants, businessmen and women as well as writers and artists. These will be shown alongside artefacts from this period including exquisite jewellery, clothing, books and coins, which give a fascinating glimpse into their way of life. If you cannot wait for the date, how about a portrait instead, Gerard?
