Evening everyone. I don't know if you'll be able to find it on the web site John (I'll have a look myself in a minute) but on Look North tonight our weather man Paul Hudson showed a wonderful photo, taken this weekend of the two Lancasters flying over Labybower reservoir. It was only on for a few seconds but it was excellent, taken by an amateur who was there to watch.

Well, third time in and maybe I finally got here...been looking the pictures of Kent....I wonder if they have an original map of Rochester Catherderal and Castle..some of them do over there...I think that would one of several to restore myself. For some reson the castles that aresurround King John seem to have been demolished somewhat.I understand that it at one time had an near by monks monestary and Templar Knights Hosptialier...which had an Thomas Larkyn there atone time...and Doctor whom might of been Charles Dickens named he use as "Larkin" in one of his books.  It may of been that Thomas, as I get into all this in history was an son of Cardinal William Warham...or more likely his brother....don't know on that one either because it appears that King Henry VII's mother Margaret took his manor house away from him to raise her son...King Hnery VIII...and then During the reign of Kning Henry VIII it was given to Thomas Wolsey to build his college. Cardinal William Warham (Larkin?)...was forced out of his position by Thomas Woolsey and after Thomas Woolsey was exucuted for treason, Earl Thomas of Norfolk was given some of these properties. I found this the other night...William Lakenham, occurs 1530 as the last priorof Bromholm..and Clunic Priory in the county of Norfolk, England, and at the Priory of Aldaby...John Lakenham occures 1514...they went back to the crown after teh Dissolution of the Churches by Henry VIII.  This John was at an Benedictine Monestary at the time. It is also in Norfolk Co., Eng. They would be earlier relatives of our Massachuesttes Edward Larkin family. Over in FRance on the other side of the channel there...was an Thomas Blokeland that was knighted during service in an war time era...I kept the records but not sure if the name evolved into Boylen...or Larkin later on. I know from this general area of George Planegent/Lawson..comes an JOhn Larkin tied with him into the area of Jamestown, Virginia. Gravesend is not to far away. (poccahontas).Someday I'll get to the truth...even if it's on the so called "Other side" perhaps. It's important to me because I'm wondering if the Lawson kind named Wright by marriage of Aulderborough...sp?...could or been raising Thomas Woolsey's daughter "Dorothy"...he has one in his household that has no information given about her. As far as I know she was travelling with an William Lawson..into Maryland...and that's where the John Lawson went to after the King bannished him..he was married to William Howard's daughter named CAtherine..cousin to the one that married Henry VIII. Now supposedly she had an love affair with the Percy family male at the time...when King Henry VIII broke them up. Percy's are known Larkin..my group relatives of my REad/Reed/Larkins. I think uncle Benjamin FRanklin would most likely know. Anyway. so much for history...I get very detailed in myresearch work.... to make such casual remarks you know. I just recently picked up an book with both pictures of King Henery VIII's palace the that of Thomas Woolsey's "South Hampton" also. Later giving it to King Henry VIII.... did not save his hide. 

I'm sore all over tonight...150 floor excerises and 5 miles walking today...but it's coming to be less in the days ahead as some rain comes in and I might have need of some respite in resting an bit. I go for now, and see if DWTS is on tonight or tomarrow night...I think tomarrow.

Sorry for the mispells..they are planned and executed by someone else other then me...reading my text messages for "control"? I guess. Theonly one I ever knew that thought his Gov. should beable to declarepeople incompetent was George Bush...thank God they stopped him, but perhaps this is the way he would pick up on Hitler's kind of evil scheme to do away with anyone that wouldn't serve him back then as his dictates wanted...by making them look like they don't know what they are talking about...or "Incompetent".  I think he should stand before God an be judged accordingly.  Maybe he already has been by now.
