Lord have mercy, I love the Shardlake books by CJ Sansom. Love that they're making a series of it. Can't wait for it. Seriously, if you like mystery, especially mysteries among the backdrop of the Court of Henry VIII, read these books.

Loved this from @joanne_paul_ I’m very familiar with the Tudor period, but this is like a peep behind the curtains at what was going on in the background. Highly recommended

Any fans out there? What do you think regarding the portraits of of Cleves and Howard? I don't think they're the same person--Anne. I don't know if the one is really Kathryn, but I don't think it looks like Cleves.

Any artists out there familiar with work? Thoughts?

On this day in 1536 King Henry VIII was thrown from his horse while jousting, leading to a brain injury that some historians say may have influenced his later erratic behaviour and possible impotence, which seems like one hell of an assumption given the lack of medical information.

Things you weren't expecting to see in the lane as you left work....though it's a 'stop me and buy one' I think I could get behind

Hello all. Hope you're doing well. I've been nursing a headache and bad hip all day but am feeling better. Managed to do some coloring which helps my anxiety. Right now I'm listening to the book Bloody Mary by Carolyn Erickson. Most books focus on Henry VIII and Ann Boleyn but I'm fascinated with Mary, too.

I'm listening to a new book about Queen Kathryn Howard and I can't help think how little we actually know of her. We know everything about the other queens, but poor Kathryn is oft described as an empty headed tramp with little to recommend her. Historical fiction writers seem to stick to that premise or they go too far the other way in making her some feminist icon. She probably falls somewhere in the middle.

There’s an old inn along the Forest Road. It’s called the Stag and Hounds.
They say it’s more than six hundred years old, and that Henry VIII and Elizabeth I used it as a hunting lodge.
If you believe what they say, the Stag and Hounds marks the exact centre of the old forest.

Just walking back through the kitchens at Hampton Court Palace and it looks like one of the team has been busy with the brick dust and elbow grease!

Clean bronze and shiny pewter.
