just for the sake of my own sanity...

Leicester Square (in London) is pronounced "Lester".
The first foundations of the Tower of London were laid in 1078, and is the oldest palace, fortress, and prison in Europe.
Jan van Eyck's painting The Arnolfini Portrait has the inscription on the wall "Jan van Eyck was here. 1434"
