A jolly good morning to you all. Well I have to say that not only is it a good morning, but it's going to be a rather good couple of days. The reason I am feeling so delighted is that Percival has gone off on one of his whale spotting trips, and I will be free for 48 marvelous hours, of his pestering me to join the Green Party. You have no idea how tiresome it is to be enjoying one's egg and bacon, and a nice read of the Times newspaper, when my pleasure is spoilt by his endless dribble about global warming and the melting of the ice caps.
I've said to him 'Percy for heavens sake, will you just leave the ice caps to get on with their melting and stop interfering in their progress.' I try to point out to him that his upsetting the digestion of my egg and bacon won't do a bally thing to make the polar bears any happier. But he just goes into a horrible sulky rant, about how rude and ignorant I am, and how I don't care about the planet. I mean I ask you. Here I am doing my best to educate the world on how to drink proper cups of tea for the sake of our glorious planet. The other day I simply told Percy that our butler was treading on thin ice the way he had been behaving of late, and this prompted Percy to begin talking about the antarctic and polar bears. He is obsessed with Green issues. I just wish he would do something useful with this life, like help out with the annual sherry tasting competition.
Yours Lady O.
