Well I'm very pleased to meet you Viscountess, may I present my card:

We don't allow chavs anywhere near the grounds...shoot them on sight don't cha know.  Why I read in the Times only today, a young chav girl tried to order herself a cab but having said "I want a Cab innit,"  They delivered her a:

Fine woodworking there on that picece of furniture.

I say old chap, I have discovered a large X marked on my lawn with round rocks, would you happen to have an idea as to what it might mean?

I do, my dear. It means you have pirates. I would suggest moving, and not leaving a forwarding address. But dig up the X first, you never know...

Zounds! An infestation of pirates! Tis indeed the bane of immaculate grounds at this time of year, although seldom spoken of so forthrightly in polite company. I will confide that I instructed Alan Tishmarsh, the Head Groundskeeper at Cor-Blimey Manor, to liberally sprinkle the grounds with Cronanite to eradicate any infestations before they reached a toehold.

I have been entirely satisfied with pirate-free lawns, gardens, mazes and tennis-courts on our entire holdings since. I cannot recommend this scientific breakthrough to you highly enough, and would even consider sending Tishmarsh round to supervise your own grounds-keeping staff in its proper application.

Frightfully naughty creatures those pirates, Lady Hum.

If one of those chaps ever come near my estate, I will give them a darn good punch up the hooter!

My boxing training I've undertaken with Seargent Major Kettlesworth will settle the matter.

How reassuring to know that not everyone is giving in to the unfortunate craze of allowing the classes to mix. So distasteful, is it not?

While one decries physical violence on principal, one must commend you, good sir, upon your vigilance in dealing with these vermin.

I have been considering sending my own dear boy, Percy, to Her Majesty's Service for proper finishing and launch upon society. Pray tell, are there other officers of this Seargent Major Kettlesworth's mettle providing discipline and training for officers-in-training in the Greater Portsmouth Regiment?

I say, have a care old chap, I hear 'The Greater Portsmouth Light Foot and Mouth" have been lined up for a spot of duty in India.  Dear lord I hear it's absolutely as hot as a Vindaloo out there and ye'll come back with a dose of the trots....if ye come back at all, what what.

A friend of mine at The 'Pall Mall Gentleman's Club' tells me he was stationed with 'The Khyber Rifles' last year.  Sounds absolutely dreadful...one is continually shouting at one's punkawalla just to keep cool!

One has sent the younker off to serve the old country as well.  Naturally, one has obtained a spot for little blighter in a suitable regiment. He is serving with the 1st Royal Regiment of Slavers, in the Caribbean. Keep getting mail postmarked Dahomey, but I can't find it on any of the Islands. Deuced strange. Must be the Fort he's based in.

Oh Jolly good, a bit of miltary experience amongst us.

How about I get my fine collection of muskets out and we let off a few rounds over a nice port, eh chaps.

My elephant gun hasn't had a good workout, since my trip to the Cape of Good Hope. I may as well fetch my 'pith hat' collection and we'll all pretend we're on a tropical hunt together.

How awfully exciting!
