Wine-music-tiaras - Music Is The Wine That Fills The Cup Of Silence

“Why do i feel like the brf are running out of wedding tiaras lol. Like no one repeats these tiaras normally and they don't have a huge tiara collection in the first place and even from the collection only a select few tiaras are wedding appropriate. Also, wondering if the Queen Mary's bandeau is forever going to be locked away in the vaults forever now? Like would any bride want to be associated with Meghan and that tiara anymore?” - Submitted by Anonymous

May they rest peacefully in Heaven

My heart is broken in a thousand pieces. I’ve never felt this kind of pain. Most of you know my daughter and son-in-law Davy and Natalie Lloyd are full time missionaries in Haiti. They were attacked by gangs this evening and were both killed. They went to Heaven together. Please pray for my family we desperately need strength. And please pray for the Lloyd family as well. I have no other words for now. Not my post I'm just sharing the family is asking for prayer...TammyS.

King George V, 19 years old. This man, gorgeous all his life ❤️

I’m waiting for certain fandoms to realize that these two men are based on the same historical person.

And that is this man.

Or is it known but just ignored?

AKA — One interpretation made him sexy. The other Jonathan Groffed him/Lin Manueled (Man-uel Handled???) him.

"It was no State secret that the King disliked travelling abroad. From the end of the war until his death 17 years later, he spent scarcely more than 8 weeks overseas; 5 of them on an enforced Mediterranean cruise after a bout of bronchitis, the rest on reluctant official visits to France, Belgium and Italy. Nor did the Queen ever undertake a foreign tour alone, even during the 17 years of her widowhood"

The clip above is from when George and Mary meet the Pope, during their visit in Italy in 1922

An illustration of King George V and Queen Mary's visit to Parkhead forge in Glasgow during their Scotland tour in july, 1914. After they inspected the various operations of gunmaking, a 100 tone crain was advancing to them, carrying in a shining steel sling a little girl with a bouquet for queen Mary. The child was Miss Annie Dunlop, daughter of one of the timekeepers at the forge. The bouquet was bought with pennies which were subscribed by employes at Parkhead.
