Chatsworth


Why keeping up with the Joneses is not too smart:


The Duke of Devonshire wanted to impress the Czar of Russia because the Czar had fountains at his palace in Russia. So the Duke (not sure which number it was), had these fountains built just for the visit of the Czar. Unfortunately, the Czar never came to see them and be impressed.
Ah, well, thousands of tourists to England enjoy them each year....including Allen and Moi!
