And when I was a teacher, I was privileged

to know many of the Royal Family personally.

No side at all.

Regal bearing, yes. But not

the snobbery of the newly rich.

Simple dignity.

Which is what 'rs missing

from so much of fife today.

Grace.

Style.

Were ail the same. We need

something fine to which to aspire.

We want to rise,

mi sink in the bog.
