I know that the Queen Mother always blamed her husband's death on the stress of having to take over from his feckless brother who gave up the throne for his floozy wife. Wallis Simpson was profiled recently on PBS and I am wondering why this was so.<br />(Feckless and Floozy...those are good names for them.)Kay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4716894977482967985.post-16487621038938829892013-05-18T07:37:56.306-04:002013-05-18T07:37:56.306-04:00It was amazing to see it "face to face" ...It was amazing to see it "face to face" so to speak!Kay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4716894977482967985.post-7913693375516163032013-05-18T07:37:08.034-04:002013-05-18T07:37:08.034-04:00I loved YOUR photos of the bluebells!
