Animal Postures
Click through for more information.
Remember, you'll be responsible for five (5) terms related to posturing or attitudes.
Letters, I get Letters!
This came from the author of the heraldry program we've been using:
First off, thanks for the link to my Puncher Heraldry Program from your blog. I see from the web site stats that it is getting quite a lot of click-throughs. I did quickly read your entry for 28th Jan, in which you stated that Prince Harry is heir to the English throne. This is of course wrong, as the lime of succession to the BRITISH throne is|
- Prince Charles - being the reigning monarch's eldest son
- Prince William - Charles' eldest son
- Prince Harry - Charles' second son
- Prince Andrew - the Queen's second son
- Princess Beatrice - Andrew's eldest child
Cheers,
Chris
Correction made Chris, thanks for a great application and your interest.
