Some pictures of Diana and Myself, where we now live and places around us, things that we find interesting, amusing or just plain weird!

Money Can Buy Pretty Much Any Thing,
including Harrods, for a mere for £1.5bn,
it is just a pity the new owners did not realize that parking outside their shop was not free! the Qatari royal family must have been a bit miffed to have a warden swoop on their £1.2million Koenigsegg CCXR and £350,000 Lamborghini Murcielago when they parked outside their new purchase, to find they had been clamped, but anyone who has ever nipped into Harrods for a few minutes could have told them that the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea shows no mercy - or discrimination - towards parking regulation breaches in the cramped, crowded streets that surround it,
I guess the new owners did not read the fine print in the contract, shoppers like me take advantage of the Harrods valet parking fee, it costs just £10 for the first hour, but I guess as the family has an estimated personal wealth of £2.4billion it was not really a cost saving exercise!
