  4. So pleased to hear that another book is published. Re-reading The Brandons at present, having just finished Felicia & Robin, again.

    1. I'm revamping the Brandons to have internal links for kindle but it's slow going.
      I might write about Jasper, Phebe, Peter and co.

    2. Having just read The Hasty Betrothal with its references to Oliver Cromwell haunting Red Lion (?) Square, I noticed a comment about Oliver Cromwell in the Obituary of Tony Uloth, in the Telegraph on 30 November. It was near the end. If you cannot read that far down the article, let me know and I'll see if I can copy and paste the relevant para.

    3. heh, thanks; I don't get the Telegraph so obviously I can't read the article, so yes please.
      Obviously the daft story about the heads of various regicides being buried in Red Lion Square was so much nonsense, but a fun urban myth of the period I discovered.

      Relevant bit
      Tony Uloth married, in 1954, Margaret Colquhoun, whom he had met at a vicarage tea party. The vicar’s party trick was to pass around Oliver Cromwell’s skull. The skull, it was said, had been passed to the vicar’s family after it was blown down in a gale while it was hung on a pike on London Bridge.

    5. thank you.And er, riiiight. Cromwell was buried, intact, in Westminster Abbey, I belive... Mind, he was dug up again, his corpse put on trial and beheaded. There is a rumour that the head blew off the spike; it's supposed to be buried in Cambridge now.
      And I believe Anne Boleyn's heart is buried in at least 5 different places, including Erwarton Church.

    6. My thoughts exactly........ Although better expressed than I would have done.
      Completely macabre for a vicar.
