I think our interior decorator might like to bare this in mind, with the dining room being the former stables, and during the Civil War, it was a Parliamentarian strong hold below the near-by castle, during the seige of 1643. |

It's too late at night now for me to think of anything, but maybe tomorrow. Since you're on a roll, how bout a limerick about the fair young maiden, Upoetia?

What,is it just going to be me, Ruth, Ray and Paul running this place? LOL! After reading all of Paul's comments I think we simply must have a story telling hour, and I think Paul should be the host! |

We could have a ladies night where all the ladies who come dressed as the Maiden Upoetia get free drinks for the hours between 11:PM and midnight, the hour during which she allegedly committed suicide. Paul, can you verify the approximate time during which the lady met her demise? |
