Acid Raine
My sister met them once, when she was working on a promotion of the Earl’s book of photos. She said Johnny was a lovely old buffer, straight out of some Ealing comedy. Just what one would expect an old Earl to be like. The girls took pity on him and gave him a sit down and a cup of tea somewhere quiet. Raine was a like a headmistress and went around organising everyone and was constantly on the old geezer’s case. Sounds a bit like life at Blandings Castle.
