I wondered if the Mary Queen of Scots House is same one we visited in 1974. My late mother, quarter Scottish, was a bit shaken by the greeting of an elderly lady retainer who, on hearing an English voice, said quite loudly: "You killed my Queen!" Oh dear. Memories are quite long with some Scots. I'd like to think she was in the minority. Onward to 'England' and Wooler where, in 1975, I resisted temptation.

It also gives me the opportunity to check other blogs by following the 'next blog' button. Last time I was into blog after blog of ill people describing the course of their illness, today it was families and pregnant ladies from the US complete with pre natal scan photos and videos. Presumably there is some link with your blog which makes the web site think that such a trail might interest, but goodness knows what it is! I preferred the 'cake' thred I followed last week , although the varieties were eye opening(bacon and cheese muffins anyone?). Regards to the Archdeacon.<br />JennyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
