Off to England

Hi all,

I've started up a blog about my travels around England, which also cleverly features the last surviving wife of Henry VIII. If anyone was interested in seeing my holiday snaps and a few words about what I've been seeing, I'll be updating it as time and internet use permit:

Lucky lion.
Glad you are enjoying it, (the HP sauce notwithstanding, although you do coyly admit to it helping you lose weight)

Petrarch, I tried to post this message on your blog but I guess you have to join there; so here it is:

Wait, Henry lived in the 1500's; so how could Katherine survive? Is she a ghost? hahah...bye the way, this is Janine from Litnet! Love your blog and thanks for the great post card. Glad you are having a great time; can't wait to see more photos.

Oh beware! I have lost weight. I have grown gaunt and faint. I am hardly certain that I shall be able to survive long enough to drag myself to the Bodleian again tomorrow....

I have written an entire blog on the subject so that my fellow Americans can be appropriately wary. Simply click here http://www.online-literature.com/forums/blog.php?b=8955 Here is a preview of the torturous account to come:

Oh my gosh; I just found this photo...you don't look too gaunt to me...I think you look lovely! Love your necklace, jewelry and dress. I didn't see the culinary delights section in your blog. I will have to preview that now. I guess you are now referring to your blog on this forum. Can't wait to read it. hahah...food sounds yummy.....NOT!!!

Hi Petrarch. I got your postcard. Thank you. :))
