Here's a first-hand account of a GHOST encounter from a docent I met at Hampton Court Palace, UK when we visited over 10 years ago. To celebrate that it's now also an AUDIOBOOK, this is a NEW promo for my book "Ghosts of England on a Medium's Vacation."



VIDEO: Hampton Court Palace: Stewart's Ghost Story (Ghosts of England on a Medium's Vacation by Rob Gutro)

In my book "Ghosts of England on a Medium's Vacation" by Rob Gutro one of the chapters covered my visit to Henry VIII's Hampton Court Palace. I encountered a number of ghosts there, including the screaming queen who ran right through me. But one of the docents there had his own encounter with a ghost. In this short video, I asked Stewart to tell of his encounter (You'll find it in my book, too).

Educational 5 Min. Video: Difference between the United Kingdom, Great Britain and England

Here's a lot of history and geography in one 5 minute video. If you thought you knew the United Kingdom, see if you really do. This great video was sent to us from our friend Cathy in Philly. Having gone to the U.K. (well, at least the England and Scotland parts), this was really fascinating.
 - I'm sure there are some errors in here  and some quirks, as people have pointed out like: Queen Elizabeth as 'Queen of England'. This is true, she is Queen of England, but as this video explains, she is also Queen of Scotland, Queen of the United Kingdom etc.. The English Crown was actually inherited by James VI, the King of Scotland, in 1603. Queen Elizabeth is also half Scottish. ALSO: The four countries of the U.K. are not "Sovereign" but the United Kingdom is Sovereign

My 1975 Comic Book to be Displayed at Sherlock Holmes Museum, U.K.!

The comic to be displayed in London!
While I (Rob) was going through my extensive comic book collection (I've been collecting since the mid-1970s) I came across DC Comics' Sherlock Holmes #1 from 1975. Instead of selling it, I decided to try and make more of a mark with it, because we were so impressed by London's Sherlock Holmes Museum. 
  So, I wrote to the curator, explained about the comic, and offered to send it there for display. After all, it is 38 (almost 39) years old. It was graciously accepted and will be put on display there!  We are so excited!

 Here's my email and the response. 
   Dear Ms. van Ehernstein - As a U.S. fan of Sherlock Holmes, I had the good fortune to visit the museum during my first visit to the U.K. in 2012, and really enjoyed it!   I am writing because I wanted to offer the museum a collectable Sherlock Holmes #1 DC Comics comic book that I've had in my collection since 1975! It's over 38 years old, and I thought the museum would appreciate the copy to possibly display (pictured below).
   I've been collecting comics since I was a child in the 1960s, and this is one of the oldest Sherlock Holmes series that I recall, and it's from the U.S., which makes it more unique. (I know that a lot more have cropped up since this came out).
  If the museum would like it, I would be happy to send it your way (free of charge of course). I would rather it go to the museum, than sell it as I really loved my visit.

   Here is the response! 
Thanks Rob for your kind offer. We really would like to display this in the museum as it should draw a lot of interest. If you would like us to put a credit with your name, such as "Rob Gutro/Tom Williams, Bowie, Maryland USA" please let me know.  Could you send the copy to our office address. We're excited about displaying it for the benefit of our visitors.

If I can assist further please let me know.

Yours sincerely

Andrea von Ehrenstein, Curator
