Anthea, we really enjoyed our (first) visit to the mausoleum this year. I found it very moving, wondering about one great love represented here, and possibly another? Who knows, but one hopes Priscilla was a happy partner in all this family drama.
Funnily enough we were told about you and Clive visiting last year, at the same time as one of Black Jack’s descendants! They were even more excited when we said that we were friends, and would be reporting back to you. I’ve just started an updating blog post about it all, not that we have much more to add.
Do hope you’re settling back reasonably comfortably into home life after the unwelcome spell in hospital.

Louise, yes. Lots more to be discovered.

Gill, I agree about the novel and no doubt there’s a poem there too. Happiness or heartache? How did Priscilla feel? Was she a willing or reluctant mistress?!!
