Number 3 reminds me of the three most important women since 1189:

Mary Donaldson, Baroness of Lymington, the first female Lord Mayor (1983),
Dame Fiona Woolf, the second female Lord Mayor (2003),
Dame Susan Langley, the current Lady Mayor, 697th person to be the head of the City of London since Henry FitzAilwyn became the first Mayor of London.

In 1215 King John, in the Mayoralty Charter, gave the right to the City of London Corporation to elect its Mayors (later Lord Mayors) for the period of one year. Until 1983 they were all men.

I have just come across an article beautifully explaining a quote by a hero of mine, Marie Curie.
She was born in Warsaw, Poland, spent her life in France working so hard on radioactivity that she would forget to eat for days and was the first woman to win Nobel Prize, and the only woman to win it twice in two different fields: physics & chemistry.
She discovered radium and polonium, whose names she came up with and were (and still are) connected with her mother country. Radium comes from Polish "rad" and "radoล›ฤ‡" meaning happy and happiness. Polonium - from "Polonia", a Latin word for Poland.
She died from severe, long-term health damage caused by decades of exposure to radiation. She gave her life to science.
Four years earlier she sent her best wishes to a newly opened hospital at 66 Fitzjohn' Avenue in London named after her. The hospital was staffed only by women and specialized in radium and X-ray therapies for cervical and other cancers. Its legacy led to founding ๐ŸŒผ

๐Ÿ’š March is my favourite month of the year. It's the month of spring, women & celebration
๐Ÿ’œ International Women's Day is round the corner and my resent walk around Westminster made me think of some of my all time favourites:
๐Ÿ“Dame Millicent Garrett Fawcett campaigner for women's right to vote
๐Ÿ’ป Ada Countess Lovelace pioneer of computing
๐Ÿช‘ Nancy Astor first woman to sit in Parliament
๐Ÿฉบ Elizabeth Garrett Anderson, elder sister of Millicent, first woman to qualify as a doctor and member of the Society of Apothecaries, one of the livery companies of the City of London
โค๏ธ They gave their time, knowledge, passion to gain what we now take for granted. Let's never forget it. Let's celebrate women and their achievements all year round!
