This blog is dedicated to Piers Gaveston, Earl Of Cornwall. Piers, also known as Perrot, was the favourite of Edward II. Depending on historical interpretation, the definition of 'favourite' ranges from 'brother', 'beloved friend' or 'lover'. This blog will be a mix of historical narrative, personal opinion and hopefully some lighter postings! The Plus will cover other historical matters.

Much more important, Novemeber 1st
is the anniversary of Piers wedding to Margaret de Clare, the niece of Edward II in 1307. It's also Kathryn's 500th post on her fabulous blog Edward II. Congratulations Kathryn and thanks for all the well-researched and fascinating posts!
Many thanks, Anerje! And happy anniversary to Piers and Margaret!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to our dear Kathryn! And happy anniversary to Margaret and Piers!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful your 500th post should have a Piers theme - he'd be delighted with the honour - although he'd think he deserved it! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd he would be right! :-)
ReplyDeleteLol - yes he would!
ReplyDeleteOhhhh, most definitely :-)
