“Jack was once a nickname for John, Harry for Henry. Charlie often pops up now in place of Charles, while Archie and Alfie are no longer confined to the 19th century (although the full versions, Archibald and Alfred, are unlikely to make a comeback). Generations ago, Nancy started life as a nickname for Anne; Polly and Molly came from Mary, while Natasha is still the Russian diminutive of Natalie or Natalia.”

The Plitvice Lakes in Croatia are a series of sixteen lakes interconnected by spectacular waterfalls, set in a deep woodland and populated by deers, bears, wolves, boars and rare bird species. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the lakes are renowned for their distinctive colours, ranging from azure to green, grey or blue. The colours change constantly depending on the quantity of minerals or organisms in the water and the angle of sunlight.
