The Glory, the nakedness, part 2!

[Shroombuck]

Wot, wot?

Before this year draws to a close, I thought I would pop on and see how everyone is doing. Unfortunately, it seems this place is sliding down the whorehole; just milk-and-water-monkey love, but no real ball(slapping)game.

Anyway, hope you are all doing well.

[Picard]

Good to see you! If I had to qualify the state of ST gaming id have to say 1930 Germany.

As long as you look at the Glass as Half Full. You'll be alright.
Its good to hear from you Shroombuck. Merry Christmas.

[Shroombuck]

I am very well. I have been appointed as one of the equerries (aide-de-camp) to H.R.H. The Prince of Wales and I recently was raised to the degree of a Master Freemason by the Grand Master of the United Grand Lodge of England: H.R.H. The Duke of Kent. Aside from that have taken up part-time master-courses in history and art history, but as you can imagine it's quite difficult to combine it all...

The game is on a different field mon frere.

Really, mon ami?

The life of a nobleman is so difficult.

[Shroombuck]

Pfff. It's very difficult to tell you what I do on a daily basis. My time is filled with my own mind wandering around in my beautiful place. Doing nothing is my specialist subject, really. I'm content with the role of private landlord and improve properties and increase the rent, but my fortune, title and estates are the work of others, who laboured to build a great dynasty. Do I have the right to destroy their work, or impoverish that dynasty? No, so I must contribute to society on a national level as well. I'm a custodian for the next generation, not an owner. I must strive to be worthy of the task I have been set. That doesn't mean I don't love large houses and rooms though. Different rooms for different times of the day and different rooms for different seasons of the year.

Did you know I do some of my best thinking while pulling weeds?
