So the next speaker is Rebecca Larson from Tudor's Dynasty or Dynasty, depending on how you say it,

0:11.9

Tudors Dynasty, dynasty.com. And I'm so glad to have you here because I've been reading your blog

0:17.5

for a long time and I love it. So let me just introduce Rebecca, American

0:23.4

by birth, but English at heart. Rebecca Larson is the owner of Tudor's Dynasty.com and she
