It’s probably Althorp, they have a deer Park there with hundreds of deer.

Yes - I think the cycling/deer video is likely from July at Althorp

Can someone remind me, the bananas, was that Meg writing little word salad drivel on bananas for sex workers ??

yep - messages of encouragement for sex workers to be included in food parcels

No. The scorched earth would indicate later in the year. This place, where they are, raises deer for meet for posh restaurants.

I don't believe anyone does anything for nothing.

What does Wace expect in return?

This would make me a Republican - the only thing stopping me is the fact those that fill the void would certainly be even more corrupt.

They're just typical people who get full time freebies from people who want to associate with royalty.

Mr NDA's brother is a big cheese with his own media production company. Perhaps soon we will be able to view a reality tv show, part paid for by a house. Just speculation!

The H&M circus feels like a sub plot of a jilly cooper bonk buster. And in the cotswolds too. Jilly would have H falling in love with a past fwb posh pub waitress turned indie boutique owner where M tries on dresses, is very rude and stomps out, leaving H to apologise and then he turns up next day with flowers. Etc etc.

I’m sure this has already been discussed but how come Meg managed to bring her dogs over? What happened to quarantine?

There isn't tough quarantine rules in UK.

Re the warm clothes. Meghan likes to wear them to signal 'not in Cali' for those of us who are a bit simple. I remember photos of her on a warm sunny day in New York completely trussed up in a winter coat.

She seems to like wearing inappropriate clothing though

Like Kevin Costner's charity event for emergency services back in 2023 in California - everyone was wearing lightweight/summer clothing - yet Meghan turned up in a heavy tweed coat/cape thing

She presumably has pet passports for them - with up to date rabies vaccinations etc

Is that the event where she ( As ever) tried to grab the microphone?

There are - if your pet is not vaccinated

ExitPursuedByABare · 13/09/2026 23:16

Thanks. I didn’t realise quarantine rules had changed so massively.

murasaki · 13/09/2026 23:18

Didn't she leave some dogs behind when she first came over?

The introduction of microchipping means you can link an animal with its vaccination record and blood tests. It is a lot of tests and paperwork.to get right, but very doable.

We wouldn't have brought our dogs over from the US without the changes.

Talking to my - foreign-born, and only thinks about HAM when I bring them up in convo ( and even then, only if there's no footie on) about the current situation.

His observation is that people in the UK are pretty lukewarm about the RF in general - they're a fact of life, like the weather. But attack them! We rally. Again, in a lukewarm sort of way.

I doubt that a US PR firm gets how the UK population feels about our unelected HoS, and how complicated it is. A bit like we just don't get the pledging alliegance every morning thing.

That reminds me of a twitter/x battle I saw! , an American poster ( no disrespect to our wonderful friends here!) made some very nasty threatening comments about David Attenborough! , quite a few responses, but the one that sticks in my mind ?
a young black London man ( I think a rapper but could be wrong) posted……do you think we won’t go to war for our grandpa? !!!
, I was ridiculously touched and felt the U.K. feeling in that post.

What is in it for Ian Wace? What does he get out of this arrangement?

There is no such thing as a free lunch....

It's crazy when you think about it... HaM are millionaires and they are being given this incredible accommodation. Yet there are so many homeless people in the UK.

And I think it is very odd that they would release footage that identifies where they are when they are so concerned about security.

Palace probably spotted them dragging boxes of bandannas and pencils out of storage...

Actually I'd imagine that little adventure incurred some quite substantial costs in unsold stock too.

This would never surprise me.

I'm putting on my tinfoil hat to say I didn't originally believe she'd ever even arrived here although the video clearly blows that theory out of the water 😁

Nothing to say though it wasn't shot over a few hours and she (+ dc?) hot-footed it back to Cali once it was in the bag.

I’m wondering and leaning too!

Re Wace, he who pays the piper calls the tune. Let's see how that plays out.

It is me, MrsF not from the TV*, and as an intensely private person, but still a massively important public figure, it behoves me that The Master of the Household (me) is commanded by Me to announce that the I have this day completed a comprehensive itinerary of domestic and personal engagements.

I have personally overseen the immaculate restoration of the VIP Residence and graciously granted an audience to the Royal Canines for their daily promenade across the grounds. Furthermore, the Household Kitchens report the successful preparation of artisanal muffins under my direct supervision.

In the afternoon, I attended to my physical fortitude at the Gymnasium, concluding the day's endeavors by personally supervising the pressing and preservation of the Household Linens.

I wish to formally express my profound satisfaction with the day's industrious outcomes.

Now please, leave me to my intensely private life.

*I quote Dennis Pennis on a daily basis, thank you for allowing me to formally indulge myself.

Ah mrsfinkle ! Excellent timing! , I was wondering were you were , as an official public figure and royal plus , it’s important that I greet and issue honours ( and hobnobs) to all the particularly distinguished private figures!
hello 👋 ….i HRH Jeff of the house of goldblum….honour you with all the power I possess……I dub you ….dame finkelstein of the house of finkelstein ( casual sword manoeuvre) ….arise Dame finkelstein!

This thread is moving super fast. Apologies if this contribution has already been shared. On perusing the web I’ve read H&M and HaMlets are staying at Ian Wace place in Northamptonshire- Rowler Manor. The vid that currently doing the rounds has a view of a lake with a little bridge. There is a lake with a bridge at Rowler Manor. I think the vid itself is spliced together with clips from both Althorp and Rowler Manor 🤔

Well ….i did mention Northamptonshire many pages ago …….im not one to gloat ! ……
