Are nt we seeing a Spencer trait here.... and a repeat of history ?
Diana spilled the beans big time with her book ..... Diana her True Story ....
it was a no no for someone so high up in the Royal Family to put those revelations in a book
... a...
Spare
Having read about a third of the book so far... Im impressed...
he has done a good job recalling his childhood and the huge events
he was caught up in.... I dare say I ve got a lot of reading to
do before Megan makes an appearance !
But has a Royal ever written...
yet they could destroy the Bastille... and remove it stone by stone.... !
till there is nothing of it remaining.....
The Bastille could have been a huge tourist attraction for Paris if it was still there !
We need someone to go to Versailles with a digi camera and take a ton of photos of the gardens and if possible the Palace too....
and then upload a zip and post a link here.
Maybe June would be a good time to go.... the roses will be in bloom ...
thanks Tilia for explaining that I dare say there s a considerable area of land taken up to accom all those coaches and cars that head there each year to what is probably the No 1 tourist attraction in Europe
yes St Denis was a tragedy all those Royal Tombs desecrated all that French History ...1000 years... trashed by the angry mob
The tomb of Diane de Poitier desecrated in a similar way on her estate
her body dug up and shattered.
France in the 18th century was...
Thanks , I did nt know that... so they did vandalize it to some degree...
but not that bad as they managed to restore it for its future role as one of the biggest tourist attractions in all of Europe.
I think I read.... maybe years ago... that the grounds of Versailles... of course a massive acreage.... are free and open to the public
A charge is made to enter the Palace and tour in there of course.
So its a good deal for the tourist and especially for people lucky enough...
Its really so sad to think that just 18 months ago Megan and Harry s wedding was such a huge brilliant event .... the weather was perfect.... the wedding was televised all around the world .
There was such a feel good factor towards Megan and Harry ...
If only Andrew and Tim would come together for one last bash...
a musical about the French Revolution could become a smash hit with Marie and King Louis in the starring roles..... lets do it !
