For
anyone who is unaware, I should warn you now. I am obsessed with Mary, Queen of
Scots.
I
find her to be a fascinating woman, who was Queen when she was only six days
old. Not only do I love her because she was Queen of my favourite country, but
I love her story. Even though it can be seen as a tragedy.
So,
just letting you know there will probably be a lot of posts about her. You have
been warned.
This post is just quick facts on Mary.
