The King’s “Coming Forth” from his apartments to the chapel, on Sundays and special holy days, became the principal occasion when Henry VIII made himself visible to his wider court. Courtiers would lie in wait along the route to be seen by the King.
In 1541, Catherine Howard, Henry’s fifth wife, discovered that she was to be charged with adultery. Legend has it that the young queen ran along the processional route in the hope of finding Henry in the chapel, to plead her innocence. Just before she reached the door she was seized by guards who took her screaming back to her rooms. Her ghost still, allegedly, haunts the gallery.
A History of the Haunted Gallery
The Haunted Gallery was built by Cardinal Thomas Wolsey as the royal route to his chapel, now the Chapel Royal.
The ghostly figure traditionally glimpsed in the haunted Gallery is supposed to be Catherine Howard, running along it in a desperate effort to reach the King at mass in order to plead her innocence. While there is no contemporary evidence for this, we do know that she was ordered to remain in her own rooms, and that although she was allowed to keep her key to pass between her rooms, from there she could not have reached the gallery she is said to haunt. In the late 19th century, her ghost was described as “a female form, dressed in white”. Residents living adjacent to the gallery reported “unearthly shriek[s]” in the dead of night, followed immediately by perfect stillness
On feast days, King Henry VIII would process in a stately manner to the Chapel, as Wolsey had done, along what is today known as the Haunted Gallery. The most important procession took place at Epiphany, the 12th day of Christmas, for which Henry would wear his crown and robes.
The best-selling picture postcards of Hampton Court in the decades around 1900 were of ghostly specters in various of the historic spaces. It was little matter that these were obvious fakes; the Palace famously had ghosts and these images were as close as most visitors would get to any evidence for them. The legend of the ghost of Queen Catherine Howard, eternally rushing along the Haunted Gallery to plead for life, was the best-known example, but act applies making counters were expected around every corner. Although no ghost postcards are on sale today, interest in the spectral presences at the Palace continues almost unabated. When a possible ghost was captured on a closed-circuit television camera in 2003, the news went around the world.
The self-appointed guardian of Hampton Court and its history from the close of the 19th century until 1930, Ernest Law, created what is now the “Tudor Route”, of which the Haunted Gallery is a key part.
Henry VII
This head and shoulders image made in c.1550-1699 of Henry VII wearing the collar of the order of the Garter and holding a red rose in his left hand probably derives from a portrait type of c.1490-1500 of which there are variants at Helmingham Hall, Christ Church, Oxford, the Society of Antiquaries and the Musée Calvet, Avignon.

My stitching has been incredibly therapeutic for me! Leave it to a man to completely rake someone over the coals. So what better way than to stitch an "eff you" in cross stitch?
Removing Wedding Rapunzel's gown. I had to loosen the laces in the back of her dress, then undo the two snap closures under the laces. Her back is now visible, and we see the part number and edition number and size of the doll. The gown and petticoat are then removed from the doll, as well as her shoes. She is now fully undressed.
Undressing my Wedding Rapunzel Limited Edition 17'' Doll, in preparation to swapping outfits with my LE Snow White 17'' doll. First step is to remove her crown and veil. The veil is permanently sewn (and possibly glued) to the crown. The crown is sewn to her hair in both ends with clear plastic thread. The veil is tacked to her head with T-tabs in three places: near the ends of the crown, and right behind the middle of the crown. These T-tabs were on very tightly, so were very difficult to cut off. I used needle nosed pliers to pull them up and a cutting plier to cut them loose. Finally the crown and veil were freed, and removed from her head. Then she was laid down with the crown and veil next to her.
I am swapping the outfits of my Snow White and Wedding Rapunzel 17'' LE Dolls. First I shoot them side by side in their original outfits. They are supported by the included display stands. For convenience I have removed Snow White's accessories (blue bird and apple) from her hands. I will show the dolls first during their undressing so you can see the construction of their outfits and of the dolls themselves. Then I will show each of them with wearing the other's outfit. I will also show them side by side with their outfits swapped. I credit Flickr member PossibleZen for making this swap first, back in August 2013. He was inspired by the D23 Fairytale Designer Snow White in her golden outfit. So my final photo will be Wedding LE Snow White standing next to D23 Snow White.

Patagonia is a distant, magical land, or so it seems. Take the Argentinean Patagonia, most of which lies in Santa Cruz province.
The province is the second-largest in the country (after Buenos Aires), yet unlike Buenos Aires, the population out here is less than 1 person per square kilometer. It's just wide-open empty.
Most of the Patagonian steppe reminds me of the western US, especially with the sagebrush vegetation. Yet you turn around and have gorgeous, snow-capped mountains, glacier-fed lakes that come in different shades of blues, and a few hard scrabble towns lying about.
The highlight of the Argentinean Patagonia is Parque Nacional Los Glaciares, which is separated in to two units (north and south).
The southern unit has its base in the town of El Calafate, which really has nothing to do with the park except that it's the closest town. (They upgrade the airport about 15 years ago. If you start with the Argentine side, this is where you want to fly into.)
El Calafate itself isn't much to write home about, but is certainly light years ahead of El Chalten (base for the north unit; more on that in a moment).
There are hotels & hostels in El Calafate that are slightly upscale & some budget ones as well, so whatever mood suits you, you'l find it. Also, you'll find a nice variety of bars & restaurants...given the size & location of the town, it's pleasantly surprising.
The southern unit of the park really just has one thing: Perito Moreno Glacier. There's not much hiking (though you can find travel agencies that do some hiking on the glacier), but other than that...it's just the glacier.
It's a beautiful glacier, though; one of the most beautiful in the world. Part of the reason it's considered the most beautiful is because it's incredibly accessible.
There are platforms that take you within 50-100 meters of the glacial face and also boats that take you along the south face.
In contrast to the southern unit, the northern unit is its opposite. To get to El Chalten, any number of travel agencies or local buses will run you up there for a few bucks. It's a three hour drive, mostly up renowned Ruta 40. However, the last 80 km or so is down another highway along the north shore of Lake Viedma.
El Chalten, unlike El Calafate doesn't have much upscale to it. There are hostels and apartments everywhere. (My agency put me up in a posada which, on the outside, wasn't very attractive, but inside...quite nice.)
So, the town looks pretty dumpy The restaurant selection is also much more restricted. (However, I absolutely loved La Oveja Negra. Nice steak and an amazing provoleta cheese if you happen to make it here.)
It doesn't really matter about El Chalten, though. The town is basically the base for the most famous place to hike in Argentina (and possibly Patagonia). There are stunning trails all over the place here of varying lengths and varying degrees of difficulty. You can also camp up in the mountains here, too. Just talk with your hostel/hotel or, of course, any park ranger for current information about hiking here.
Forget everything.
Forget your past, forget your present, forget your future.
Just think of you and me, lying on the grass, like that day.
Can you see the light over my face? I can see it in your eyes.
Just caressing my ear, then my hair.
We're watching stars in our hearts, staring at the cloudy sky.
There's no fear in the air, there's no excuse to hide yourself.

Lier is a Belgian city located in the province of Antwerp. The city is said to have been founded in the 11th century. In 1212, the Duke of Brabant Henri I granted an urban charter to the inhabitants. The fourteenth century was a period of prosperity for the city: construction of a cloth hall in 1367, a belfry in 1369 and a second rampart in 1389. The prosperity of the city was based on the drapery industry and on the existence of a cattle market, which had been granted to it by the Dukes of Brabant.
