why only one? if his marriage to Katherine was never valid as he said then 2nd wife anne would have been valid even though he divorced her. she was dead when he married jane seymour so she should be a wife. katherine howard was annuled and catherine parr outlived him. why is it only one? i am confused. agree it's certainly not six though.

hmmmmm........

oh i see. depends on religion really doesn't it. i suppose catholics would say a different number to protestants.

either way i don't like Henry VIII, as a child i had recurring nightmares about him chopping my head off lol.

According to the book 'Unbelievable but True Facts' duck quacks dont echo but as I dont have a duck to hand no real way I can prove this so how about......

Regarding coins......the penny piece has always been in our English coinage....unlike all our other coins.

Just thought of another useless bit of information........the meaning of a blue moon.........approxamatly every 2.7 years a month occurs in which there are two full moons......the second of which is known as a "blue moon"......hence once in a blue moon being not very often.
