write hand blue: A piece of trivia...

Anyone heard of ... Pelygren Sagbut ?

Yes--the spelling is correct.

He was the royal glove maker for Henry VIII. The royal wardrobe accounts state that on January 1st 1529 he was paid twenty shillings for making two pairs of perfumed gloves covered in velvet...
    Cumbrianlass: How interesting! I haven't heard of him until now. I know Henry loved his clothes and spent (by today's standards) millions of dollars a year on his wardrobe. :) -
    William Walz: No, but in high school I dated a girl by the name of Polly Sagbutt. -


write hand blue: Today (24th Dec.) on the news I heard that NORAD an organisation full of experts that watch the skies. Have stated that they are keeping an eye on Santa's flight from Greenland to the UK.
I can't believe no one has told them that Santa is not a real person... ~a smile for Christmas~
    I am Cat: My mom always told me that if I didn't believe, then he wouldn't come visit me. ;) -
    evilynne: He's as real as you believe he is. Evi -
    Delahay: If it weren't for Santa there would be no NORAD. Having served in the U.S.A.F. I can
    say this with the utmost authority. -


write hand blue: We were also told that as children.

I would like to wish everyone a 'Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

    Joy Graham: Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too! -
    Linda Engel: Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year -
    evilynne: Seasons Greetings! -
    Delahay: The thing I remember about childhood is,
    If I Should Die Before I Wake, sweet dreams! -


write hand blue: I would like to express my appreciation to my reviewers, and the voters for my works recently entered in competitions...


write hand blue: I wish to thank all the readers who voted for 'The flaming ~ Rattus norvegicus' in the 'Turning disaster into triumph' competition. Because they did indeed turn disaster into triumph.

And my thanks as always to the reviewers who read my work and generously helped me.

This is much appreciated.
    The Death: Congratulations! :)
    It was a very enjoyable story. With my psychic-powers, I can guess your name is Mel. ;) I know I'm not wrong...heh-heh! -
    write hand blue: Thank you, yes, your powers are awesome... cheers!!!! -
    write hand blue: Famous quote.
    Winston Churchill was approached by a woman at an after-dinner speech.

    Woman said. "If you were my husband I'd give you poison."

    Winston answered. "Madam, if you were my wife I'd take it."

    Hah! Hah! -
    Drew Delaney: Love this quote from Winston. Hee, hee! -

    Axiom Gray: Congratulations on your win! You certainly deserved it! -
    write hand blue: I wish to thank all you good people out there for voting 'Henry's trip to Scobee' to number one position. Once again I have no idea who you are. Henry would send you all a piece of cake if he knew... -
    Dean Kuch: Here is the link to my entry. It is still there in my portfolio (I just checked), on page #2...http://fanstory.com/displaystory.jsp?hd=1&id=606143

    Secondly, the FanStory committee does not vote on the Book of the Month. It is a contest voted upon by the members of this site. I even received a begrudging 'seven star rating' from them, saying that while they did not agree with the decision, the fans had spoken...
