Hi Tenaka,
Congratulations on the neat entry and for being recommended!
Before a sub gets hands on this, you've put that Lloyds is 'a group of men'. These days, I don't think that's accurate as there are women as well. Do you think you could amend this bit?
What's your next subject for entry?

It reads
Lloyd's historically is a collection of "Gentlemen Insurers"; a group of men who together put up the money to underwrite insurance,
and refers to the historical poxition where only men were allowed to write or broker at Lloyd's, so the use here of "a group of men" is acceptable.
As to what next, either an article on Raymond E Feist, the fantasy author or on asbestos and the panic it caused in the insurance industry. I work in the insurance industry as an auditor so these are things that partially interest me and I know about.
