That's wonderful Very Happy

I'm trying to remember the name of the governor of one of the New England colonies from the early 1700s who basically spent his entire time dressed as a woman...even had his official portrait done with him so attired...in fact whoever took over from me as the English player in game 8 might still have him in place... Wink
