I thought I would put together a few facts that I have heard about, and I would welcome input from anyone who wants to join in.
Did all British people know that they are breaking the law every 25th December when they celebrate Christmas? Christmas was made illegal by Oliver Cromwell and the law was never repealed, just ignored.
In London, black cab drivers are obliged to carry a bale of hay to feed their horses. That law was also never repealed.
In some states of the USA it is illegal to have sexual intercourse with a virgin. So, no spending your honeymoon there then!
This blog is to keep my readers updated about my forthcoming historical romance books and to tell you a little bit about the history behind each one. I hope you enjoy reading it and feel free to comment.
