Windsor Castle, The Phantom, and The Queen
... this marble slab are deposited the remains of Jane Seymour Queen of King Henry VIII (1537), King Henry VIII (1547), King Charles I (1648), and an infant child of Queen Anne. This memorial was placed here by command of King William IV in 1837 ~~~~~ I was really shocked that a King who had such an amazing history and reign had such a plain, non-descript burial place. Apparently he DID have a much more grand place in mind, but the country ran out of money to ...

I took a walking audio tour of the State Rooms, including the Great Hall, Ballroom, four or five drawing rooms, and more. Each room is grander than the next and filled with history, with carvings from ground to ceiling, huge, sparkling chandeliers, and ...
Lasting in London?
... believe I just said that!"
Our stop over was in Abu Dhabi and I spent 230 dollars on a perfume and Georgia may have spent 30 dollars on a (burnt-to-the) crisp chicken burger. (no idea of the currency) The flight was real bloody long, with some annoying Pom lady sitting behind me. I reckon she decided to spice up the flight by spilling her red wine within the first few hours and thought she would show the other passengers how good it was to be a mum. When the poor ...
