Sorry about that computer froze. bloody Par-larva
Re Funeral of King Charlas 1st.
now do not forget Mr Clogs that Charlas 1st was buried wearing the SAME two identical shirts that he was wearing prior to being beheaded.
Why was he wearing TWO shirts. Well on Jan 30th 1649 it was Snowing and bloody freezing cold so he wore two low necked identical shirts to keep him warm and stop him shivering because he thought the crowd at the scaffold might think he was shivering with fear so thats why he wore two shirts.
also in 1649 the new year did not start untill March so to be correct charlas 1st was not executed in 1649 he was indeed executed on the 30th Jan. 1648. I hope this account of this true historical fact does not bugger up your day in question Mr Clogs.
In regards to the present venue at lower stoke on the 25th I will most deffinately be there with out fail.
