This is great, Mari! I didn't know about Scotland, and I love your take on The Crown. It was like watching a lamb led to slaughter. And the portrayal of upper class mores on love, marriage and affairs was so interesting to me. Have you watched Dash and Lily yet? Highly recommend.

Thank you! Glad you liked it (please share widely). The crown was fascinating for all of those reasons. The early years with Philips affairs and then Charles. Anne was sleeping around but they didn’t like Camila because she wasn’t a virgin. It actually doesn’t seem like fun to be Queen. And, yes Dash & Lily was fun — the 5th grader and I really enjoyed it (and it’s hard to get her to watch stuff with me).
