I think your blog is excellent. No, I didn't wear a spray of oak yesterday, but love to find all those old holidays and special days in books and read about them, they're rather fascinating aren't they?

What a lovely place! I am bookmarking it immediately, although I rubbish at commenting...<br /><br />I had no idea that 29th May was Oak Apple Day, nor that this was a celebration of King Charles's restoration. As it happens, I read quite recently a novel about Charles's younger sister, Minette (Royal Flush, by Margaret Irwin; I enjoyed it very much) so am feeling quite Stuarty at present. I hope that you were wearing a spray of oak in your hat yesterday...<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
