May 05, 2023 22:04 - 4 minutes - 4.03 MB

When I was a boy, I used to love going my grandparents’ house and reading about the royals in my grandma’s trashy magazines.   My grandparents had come out from the U.K in the sixties and they were still very British, working class, and my grandma was absolutely consumed by the various scandals and shifting dynamics within the Buckingham Palace set.  Well... I say she was. I think, actually, I was. To a little boy it felt like a fantasy World. I used to perch up on my Grandma’s La-Z-Boy, r...
