Usually I’m, at best, ambivalent about the monarchy. I think that, from a political point of view, they have no purpose, but they make people feel good, and that’s an important function.
I was surprised, therefore, to realize how quickly I was willing to go all “abolish the monarchy” on learning of Blair’s knighthood.
Dear Ms. Holmes,
I noticed your post about your Stretton relatives from Ireland, and there is a possibility we may be related. I am sorry to contact you through your message board, but there is no contact form on your website. If your interested, I left my email.
Thank you
