Hally ho there! When my children were growing up, I took leave of my position in the House of Lords to ensure that my children had a clear view of the Estate and it's running. At the age of nine I had the Stablehand "Peter" bugger them on a cold and frosty Novembers morn in view of the various Farmhands and House Staff. I returned to my post happy in the knowledge that my children would be more equipped to deal with the harshness of life and perchance harness the reigns of the Estate with the kind of steady hand that only a swift public buggering can create. I suppose if pressed I would advise that you keep your staff well paid and the Estate running smoothly during your childrens tenderest years. As a matter of principle I would strongly advice removing radiators and carpets from all nursing rooms and certainly from the childrens bedroom. I believe that this better prepares them for life. WHat? Eh?! Sir Chapston III
