Lovely, Carol! And thank you!
Personally, may I say that it doesn't have to be "all one" or "all the
other." There is something about Richard that strikes a chord deep in my
soul. But that inspires me to learn as much as I can - of the truth, "warts
and all," as Oliver Cromwell is supposed to have directed his portrait
painter.
I also think of a favourite saying of Justice Walter Goodfellow's of the
Nova Scotia Supreme Court in guiding always-competitive barristers: "Strive
mightily, but eat and drink as friends." Each of us has different
backgrounds, education and abilities, but we are all united in the interest
of Richard Plantagenet. And there are many ways in which that goal can be
fostered, each of us doing our small part.
Loyaulte me lie,

Oh well said Carol....Yes...let's just post and enjoy in our own ways....We are not all academic but those who are not are, as George said the other day 'enthusiastic amateurs' and simply want to to enjoy talking with like minded people. We dont all have to agree but neither is it enjoyable to be engaged in neverending arguments about our beliefs all the time. As Shakespeare said...sometimes it pays to "give thy thoughts no tongue".
I have learnt a lot on here.......and that is a jolly good reason for staying...
