I'm forwarding the following from Jean Peach; she's off Arachne
temporarily, due to 'puter problems. Parts of the message - private and
of no interest to Lace - are removed, hence the slightly chopped up

I just thought that you might
like the web site about John Heathcoat the inventor of the
lace machine.

Now there is also an exhibition at Buckingham Palace of The
Queen Mothers White Wardrobe designed by Norman Hartnell in 1938
for the Queen Mothers trip to Paris, they have never been worn
since. I am hoping to go to Buckingham Palace, something I
thought I would never do. There was a short film on TV in which
they said that some of the dresses had lace on them. I am
going to use all of the 20 tokens the local council gives me to
travel on buses they just cover a return trip to London. Gary
says not to take my back pack I might get arrested <G>.
