Diosgyor Castle in Hungry has been added to my European Castles page

Diosgyor Castle Hello and welcome to this weeks update.

As the title suggestes, I have added Diosgyor Castle which is located in Hungry to my European Castles Page.

The current castle, which stands today, is a result of an order by King Bela IV who, after the Mongols withdrew from the country, ordered that every hill top had to have a castle constructed upon it.

lastly I would like to welcome on board the four new subscribers to my newsletter. Hope you have enjoyed reading the previous issues...!

Well thats it for another week.

summer has finally been left behind and winter is soon upon us. As my two boys have just reminded me... DAAAAD! know it is getting darker is christmas nearly here...!

Where has the year gone? Answers on a postcard please

Unitl next week

Best wishes and have a great week

At LAST... ! A New Page Added

Edward the Confessor

Hi Everyone to a slightly later than normal update.

It has been two weeks since my last entry and I am glad to say that at last I have been able to spend some quality time on my website.

There has been one addition to the site - A page dedicate to Edward the Confessor who ruled England from 1042 until his death in 1066. You can read all about him in my British Monarchs section.

Also I would like to say a big WELCOME to all new subscribers to my newsletter. 1 today and 3 last week. Our numbers are slowly growing. So if you know anyone who could be interested in reading about Life in Medieval times or trying out Medieval recipes then point them in my direction.

Well that's it for this week.

I am slowly gaining a full head of steam again and it want be long before I am constructing one or two pages of content on a regular basis again.

Best wishes and have a great week

A new house, new location and a cold...!

Hi everyone,

As the title suggests, I have finally moved all the family and our worthily affects down to London.

The move went well without to much trouble, except that the house the military have given us to live in is a lot smaller than what we left behind in Stafford.

The only thing I wish I could have left back in our old place was a cold I picked up just before we moved. Not sure if it was caused by the stress of moving, finding out that we might have to perform magic tricks to make our furniture seem smaller than it is or a combination of everything or none at all.

Boy....! I am now a convert to what they say about moving house is the most stressful thing to happen to you.

The good thing to come out of it tho, is that my two boys made new friends within half a day of being here and were so tired from helping with the move that they went to bed early most nights of last week without being told to. Miracles do happen.

Well that is about it for this weeks happenings. Sorry there isn't much to report but hopefully next weeks round up will have something more interesting for you to read about.

So until then

Best wishes and have a great week

Stuart
