What I found a bit odd wouldn't have been odd at all in old times, but it seems sort of weird to us that the European stately homes had breweries on their grounds, and everyone living on the estate was encouraged to drink their ale or beer! This is explained by the poor quality of drinking water in those days.

Hello Cheryl. You must have seen many beautiful homes. I have only had the pleasure of seeing The Breakers & Marble House in Newport, RI. My question is: Do you have to plot out your stories before you start writing them or does the story come to you as you go along? Have a wonderful day!!
