I think it would tell a very different story plus the camera would capture when words alone are insufficient.<br />Where are these 'huge investments' that were mentioned? What about the huge amount of public money that these big estates receive?GentleOtterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04728896118931496934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804759117912757983.post-50687278498001867112014-01-12T00:56:44.770-08:002014-01-12T00:56:44.770-08:00Wow they didn't do themselves any favours did ...Wow they didn't do themselves any favours did they!

No more ridiculously outdated privilege, no more primogeniture, no more lairds or lords or other forms of titles. I wish you every success in "dealing with it", to quote them. And as for the "pretty wife" comment - I don't think I need to dignify it with anything further than you have said already.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
