Duchess - a 50 word photo-story



Susie has started to make up stories for the visitors. ‘This Duchess once ordered the chef to cook the family dog,’ she lies. ‘And then she had the chef barbecued.’ She spots the current Duke rushing towards them. ‘It’s an old family habit,’ she screams. Everybody runs for the door.

After a rather depressing visit from our plumber, that really made me laugh. Thanks!

Fred's job was to touch up the paintings, an art form handed down through generations. Over the years, he had given the Duchess the Twiggy look, a Barbara Windsor and then a Jordan. He was very pleased when reduction came back into vogue because he was running out of canvas.
