What a wonderful show, great closeups. Thank you so much. I've got a question, however. I read that Victoria wanted to encourage the Honiton lace industry, which had lately been depressed due to change in styles, so she had her dress trimmed in large amounts of it. The dress on display, however, while it has a deep Bertha, does not have a skirt flounce, which I thought should be there. Tales of 200 lacemakers working for 9 months. Is this what the royal christening gown is made of, the one that was just retired? Where is the lace? Or am I out to sea?
Lyn in Lancaster, PA, US where we did NOT have a tornado this morning, although there was a tornado warning. and we have now been able to see our shadows for a significant part of FOUR days.
