Really enjoyed it ladies, thank you. My husband and I went to Hampton Court Palace back in 2003. We were so spoiled and looked after, they made it very special. My husband had a walker then snd we were so looked after. Thank you 🙏🙏🙏👵🇦🇺

I wonder: at what point did we become protective of history? I see the first museums started in the 1700s as private collections. But I see old timey people had no issue tearing down entire sections like it was nothing in the 1600s. Doing that today would be insane. They didn't seem to approach old buildings/old things/history with the same reverence we do today. They dismantled Nonsuch Palace and sold it for scrap, piece by piece, to pay gambling debts. And don't get me started what happened to Catherine Parr and her tomb after her death... that would be absolutely insane (and disgusting) to us now.
