But it's quite a mix of the two. A lot of the names and terms on the island are French, even though the politics are British, I think. Technically part of Britain. Until 2008 it was still ruled by a feudal "Lord of Sark." Now it has a democratically elected body.M.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6297631190403710992.post-61745272012611361382011-10-20T22:12:48.353-04:002011-10-20T22:12:48.353-04:00Hey, Melissa -- doing okay.

I'm really enjoying reading about your big MOVE, and all the progress on your BOOK! Love the video trailer too :) Your life is pretty exciting right now! I miss Victoria too. The new one is really nice, but there's some intangible quality that's missing.M.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6297631190403710992.post-29422483543660941052011-10-20T21:35:38.913-04:002011-10-20T21:35:38.913-04:00The isle sounds fascinating and charming.

I would pour over them and when we lived in Maine, much of my decorating was inspired by them. I still have pictures I cut out of outfits I liked too -that whole classic English look. I was heartbroken when the magazine went away. How are you anyway?Melissa Ann Goodwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13454907380469372468noreply@blogger.com
