That Ann of Cleves might be your choice of 'to be Queen' matches that of my son Brett who's argument that she was probably the best of Henry's wives matches my own, she outlived them all and got the most out of the post marriage stakes. Living where I do I easily visit Hever Castle and Lewis in Sussex where there is another Ann of C houses. The more one learns about Ann of C the more astute a character she becomes. And of course I can get to Hampton Court quiet easily too. Will be going to one of their Summer day talks and lectures on June 6th where Brett will also be giving one of the lectures. Am I lucky or am I lucky?

You are indeed lucky! I actually have pictures of Hever throughout my house, with pictures of the exterior, gardens, etc. I have to be content with that!

I've always thought that historians are too quick to write off or to ignore Anne Cleves, she is certainly one of my favorites.
