We are most gratified!. This evening we have received the second comment upon our blog. This came from a very kind young gentleman called Chris, which I believe is the diminutive form of Christopher. Thank you young man.
I have today invented a joke, it is this 'how may gerbils does it take to change a light bulb?' .............142, you need a large pile to stand on. Well it amused me.
I did in fact have electric lighting installed at dear Osborne in 1892. What mischief that caused!. At first we were perplexed as to why so many servants were being found dead at various locations around the house. It transpired that they had been introducing their index fingers into the newly installed 'sockets' in the belief that this was the correct way to turn the lights on.
Mr. Brown informed me today that the current level of ice in the ice house is insufficient to sustain the present state of preservation of the recently deceased Fenian gentlemen. We will therefore, with some alacrity, have to find a solution as to their future concealment.
I have to go now as my grandson Wilhelm has just invaded West Cowes. Stupid boy.
