Thank you Exe Valley U3A for welcoming me to Tiverton yesterday for my talk, An Audience with the Lady Katherine .

It was especially lovely to meet Margaret Rice, the author of this book about merchant families of 16th century Exeter. So that’s my weekend reading sorted!

A huge thank you to the Friends of Newton Abbot Museum for giving me such a warm reception yesterday evening.

Here I am wearing a russet nightgown as I introduce The Real Kat Ashley.

Today I’m playing with slides for my talks later this week. Quite a rogues gallery here! A few more adjustments needed.
