Next tidbit: could anyone who specializes in the House of Bourbon or the July Revolution please message me?

Just found this . A very interesting take .

Will follow this and this also reminds me why i should check out the before and after 1900 forums for good stories like this.

2 fun tidbits from my desk at work:

1. Your girl can b.s. her way in Spanish, French, and Italian
2. I share a birthday with George of Kendal - and will hopefully be posting the next update on our birthday!

[47] The title is still Canning’s OTL - he is the shortest serving Prime Minister to die in office. If you can guess which Prime Minister I ‘killed’ off to steal his title, I’ll give you brownie points and naming rights for a child of the couple of your choosing (not Charlotte and Leopold, but any other couple mentioned in this TL).

If Neville Chamberlain was second, does this mean you’re killing off Winston Churchill?

Looking forward to the 5th November and glad I’m not the only one to use my one birthday for my characters.

Unfortunately no, Churchill is safe! (From me, at least)

Well that only leaves 33 prime ministers. David Lloyd George?

Alas, he is also safe!

I'm sentimental to the Old Beef, luckily for him, so unfortunately no.

Is it a fairly well known Prime Minister OTL? Or one of the more obscure ones?

 

[Jonathan]

Down to thirty one. Let’s go Arthur Balfour, wouldn’t really notice him dying earlier plus isn’t too much of a butterfly.

That's hard to answer... he might not be one of the most well known. Definitely filled large shoes.

Not gonna lie, forgot Balfour was a PM - so unfortunately not him either

I'm so sorry guys, I was doing my best to get the post up today but I had a root canal two hours ago and it feels like my jaw is broken :/ I'll do my best for this weekend!

Poor Balfour. But it’s definitely not thatcher as you said he.
Which PMs had large shoes to feel:
Eden
Major
Brown

Hope you feel better soon, apart from the root canal hope you had a good birthday. And no rush.

Only one at a time! who is your final answer?

Lucky bastard. Hmm... Peel?

I actually like Peel - gotta appreciate someone who can see the way the wind blows. Peel survives.

 

[GrandMaster]

Is it Stanley Baldwin?

Perhaps Eden dies of his frequent health issues.
