A Unicorn Horn for your Cat
What will they think of next? Something more sensible I hope.
I don't have a cat at the moment, but our last one - a serial killer with the totally inappropriate nom de guerre of "Fluffy" - would have made short work of any inflatable item, ...

Community Shield 2013: Manchester United versus Wigan Athletic preview
Manchester United have always taken this trophy seriously, as is shown by the fact that they list community shield wins along with their other magnificent trophies. This is probably why they have won it so often.

Hubert Patey - an Indentured Servant
This is a fascinating story! 1640 was also the year that the Civil War kicked off in England, though not especially touching Yorkshire. Have you any idea where in Yorkshire Hubert came from?

Perhaps Prince George's baby shoes will be preserved and gilded, instead of merely bronzed!

Ologsinquito - Precisely, but I still have my suspect.

What Happened to the Princes in the Tower?
Great piece. I've never viewed Richard III as a monster; just a product of his time. If he did do it, I think I could understand his motives at the time. That said, I don't think it was him. While you raise a good point about Margaret Beaufort, ...

Why Richard III May Not Have Killed the Princes in the Tower
I'm very confused. :) If they posed no threat to the throne (all the talk of their being illegitimate heirs) and no threat to anyone else, why would anyone want them killed?

What Happened to the Princes in the Tower?
There are many suspects. They also could have died of natural causes. Who knows?

Hot Weather Container Gardening
I lost all my potatoes but my sweet potato is HUGE. I do have to water it a lot but it is a hot weather item. I just planted some veggies for my fall garden and they're doing great so far. I want to plant more in grocery bags, maybe this ...

What Happened to the Princes in the Tower?
Currently, I least suspect Richard III. I am in the minority here.

I think the cat wants its owners destroyed forthwith. LOL Hold on, which cat?

What Happened to the Princes in the Tower?
No, I've lived long enough to realize that anything is possible. Sometimes the person you'd least suspect is the guilty one.
