      Fanny Buster English Heritage, from the entrance money. However, a lot of people volunteer, just for the pleasure of working with such lovely things.

      OMG, no. It's great to look at but I'm sure I would hate it if I had to live there, I prefer something quite smaller. Maybe if I had a big family, enough people to fill these big old halls with life and laughter, but since I'm happily single and all alone I'd rather have a little cottage.

      I have been a huge anglophile all my life and I visited for the first time last year. A dream come true. I really just made up my mind and did it with my daughters encouragement. Her and I had the best trip. Live your dreams. Life is short.

    I wonder how much the staff who work so hard to keep these Palaces at their best for the visitors are paid . Many do voluntary work. However, I'm intrigued that other members might require a bit more cash in their pockets for all they do.

      I certainly can , one of my aunts' worked in service before WW 2 . The pittance she was paid would barely cover a postage stamp these days ! Then she became a member of HM forces . She passed away , aged 95 . A really wonderful woman. We have so many unsung heroes and heroines . 🕊
