On this date in 1265, the future Edward I made fools of his de Montfort cousins again by tricking them into a horse race that enabled him to escape. Since his escape led to the battle of Evesham and a resounding defeat for Simon and his supporters, I don’t see the need to celebrate this occurrence.
I would rather post a link for my fellow pet lovers for my spaniel, Holly, enjoying a play-date with some canine pals. Yes, she has play-dates now, but hey, only children need to socialize, too, right? (Holly is the glamorous white spaniel with the sweeping plume of a tail, which is the way God meant spaniels to look.)
