 Hello to all! Hello, this is the first forum I have ever joined and whilst I was always meaning to join one to speak to other people who share my love of 18th century France, especially Marie Antoinette and her fascinating life, it was not until a friend recommended I join this particular forum that I actually did, and I am so happy I took their advice. I like all pre-18th century history and strong-willed women of eras past are my weak-spot ^.^

Re: Hello to all! Ah ha! My instincts tell me that I know this friend of yours very well. They have wonderful taste and are really all around brilliant but modestly so. I'm glad you took their advice. Welcome to the forum.

Re: Hello to all! Yes, this friend of mine is also awfully humble and would never be seen singing their own praise, anywhere! Hehehe, thank you!! ^.^

Re: Hello to all! Welcome aboard ! And it's a great idea to pick the lovely Jeanne Becu as your user name.)

Re: Hello to all! Thanks! The Comtesse and the Queen are both huge subjects of interest to me, and thank you for giving me such a kind welcome!

Re: Hello to all! Welcome to the forum! Yes the Comtesse was a lovely woman, though not all that strong willed. She was soft and sensual like the 18th century.
