Hi, I'm Jules, although most of you know me from my posting name of Lady D. As well as now running this forum, I also have a blog or two - the main one being Lady Despenser's Scribery. As you may have guessed from this my main area of interest is the life and 'career' of Hugh Despenser the younger - all round bad-boy and very special friend of Edward II! However, I am trying my damndest to find some good things about him!

This looks like a great place to hang out, Lady D. Thanks for the opportunity. I'll be putting a link to the forum in my blog.

Re Hugh Despenser, it seems to me boswellbaxter had a few good things to say about him in The Traitor's Wife. But you knew that.

Thanks Fuzzy History and welcome to the 'Quill'! Hopefully it will grow and grow into a nice little fun and supportive community for us history buffs
