A different slant, I think.

I like to watch American Pickers on Dave TV, where a couple of guys go around picking a load of rubbish from old gits who have shacks full of crap.
Why does that remind me of the Faulty Fox?

Looks like they own Abbots Bromley school twice.

Will Lady Fibblesworth do instead? Not quite...
“Dear, dear,” Villiers said. “That was almost a yelp, Lady Eleanor. We seem to be attracting some attention; perhaps we might stroll down a path.”
She glanced to one side, only to meet the avid eyes of Lady Fibblesworth standing with the Earl of Bisselbate. Of course, their meeting would be extraordinarily interesting to most of London, given the rumors about Villiers’s hunt for a wife. She threw the couple a stiff smile and tucked her hand into the duke’s arm.
“I had assumed that the children were the offspring of your mistress,” she said a moment later, when they were far enough away to be out of earshot.
“Oh, they are,” he said. “Four mistresses. Have you examined the baths yet?”

We saw loads of Chinese people around canary wharf today. More than normal. Some of the young women were dressed in slightly provocative attire. Very smart they all looked a bit like money. I guess it's fashion. But with the masks you can't really work it all out.
I wonder if they have escaped from HK. E14 area is a traditional Chinese settlement district so I guess it's not surprising if they turn up in the neighbourhood. Also there have been some extremely expensive new residential blocks opened very recently there like Wood Wharf among others. Perhaps these are just the new locals. Or it might have been a load of tourists but I'm not sure if tourists are allowed at the moment...
I did notice it and I often go around the area so I know what the normal population looks like even during lockdown.

I dunno if tourism is happening yet..thought folk had to quarantine or maybe China is 'allowed' to send folk here. We r opening up for the invasion at Easter I think...I will defy be out early then home as I don't like crowds even without Covid threat.
