: : Lady Alice Hillingdon. Wife of 2nd Baron Hillingdon. 1912.
: : She said:-I am happy now that George calls on my bedchamber less frequently than of old. As it is, I now endure but two calls a week, and when I hear his steps outside my door I lie down on my bed, close my eyes, open my legs and think of England.

: With an attitude like that I'm surprised George made a twice weekly call. Methinks the Chamber Maid was kept busy on at least 5 nights a week.

Perhaps the problem wasn't her attitude. Maybe George was her problem.
