#EarlSpencer Never mind the mugs and teatowels being printed, if Diana had serious doubts about the marriage, her family should have supported her. She was very young. It would have blown over quickly. #EdwardVIII had Coronation mugs and even stamps produced

#EdwardVIII cyper. Very rare cos he wasn't on the throne for long. This used to be a #GPO building. Or would that have been #PostOffice? Either way it opened when he was on the throne (not the loo!)I doubt many locals know about it.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1936, the UK dodged a bullet when King #EdwardVIII abdicated his throne before being crowned. He was in love with a twice-divorced American, #WallisSimpson, and was not allowed to marry her. That he was a fucking #NaziSympathizer was apparently just fine.
