I still have my head
Well, if it's true, I encounter royalty every second of every day...

There's an oft told story in my family (often by me now that I know it) that we are somehow related to both Anne Boleyn, and 'I'm Henry the Eighth I am' wife number five, Catherine Howard (they were first cousins, married the same bloke, were both accused of shagging anything that moved, and coincidentally, both had their heads chopped off. Maybe Catherine took stalking to a whole 'Single White Female' level and they should have featured in last weeks QOTW).

Anyway, apparently my paternal great grandmother was a Howard, and from Norfolk, hence we are all Howards from Norfolk, disregarding the other bucketloads of DNA depositied in the family stream over the years. We all have our heads though and I haven't noticed anyone with six fingers, unusually large sleeves, or a tendency to decapitate people when angry.
