@counterhon Exactly, counterhon! Anastasia did not look like the rest of them. Good analogy. Now you are using your mind, and not those of the AP! There is hope...

[counterhon]

@FinnMove She looked like her mother and sisters? I've never thought so. Not to be disrespectful, but all the "most recent" (close to their deaths) pictures I've seen of the girls show that Anastasia was the only one who could be described as "plain." Olga, Tatiana and Marie were stunning.

Elizabeth was, by far, the best of the 4!

@GOMaX61 I'm sorry that you feel saddened but little May and her brother Frittie (with other members of the Hesse-Darmstadt family) will be in one of my future video about the Hessian curse.

Hey Lostsplendour... thank you, as you know I wrote that one too under a different name, but THE FOUR GRACES will be soon!!!!!

@gggreggg Thanks you. Merci beaucoup.

I think Anastasia had a very much looks by her mother and her sisters. God only knows how would have a grown- up Anastasia looked without Jekaterinburg massacre. Thanks for the video !

@lostsplendour bon jour mon ami--my french has faded to uselessness!

thanks for replying.

i appreciate your efforts.

please dont feel compelled to answer all of my emails. but i enjoy what ever you have to say, when you have time to say it.

@gggreggg Thanks you Gregg for enjoying my videos. I'm trying to answer to everyone but sometimes is quite hard (lack of times and a lot of spam). I'm making this week a video about Leopold III and Astrid of Belgium. She died a car crash 75 years ago.

REALLY enjoying these videos.
