Narnia is falling down, falling down, falling down
Narnia is falling down my fair Fanny…….
I really wonder if an architect, or some recent survey, has indicated that the stuff stored upstairs is in danger of causing a major collapse and that's why she got the containers. The next stuff to be stored will be all the textiles now in the wardrobes in Narnia. I can just imagine what would happen to all that fabric stored in a container! As for the books, she is really not interested in them at all, despite what she says. She and Snorts just like looking at the pretty pictures and the bulk of the books are just for show. Many of the books in the containers will have been gifts from fans and patrons, some of them may have been precious family possessions. Fanny could not care a fig for the books or the people who took the trouble to send them to her. If she starts grifting for a library, I would be furious. At least, John's wife was probably an intelligent woman (aside from marrying a tobacco supporter!) who loved books. John is building a library in her memory and will do it with care, respect, and good taste. Fanny would not be capable of any of that. I also think that the paneling being stored in a container, will be the final straw for Amaury. I think he will be furious and I hope it means he will not work on the Grand Salon. The problem is, if he does, back out of it, Fanny will, no doubt, use the need to employ a contractor, as an excuse to grift even more cash.
That woman needs immediate psychiatric treatment or, if she is not considered to be in need of treatment, then she needs locking up for her own and everyone else's sake.
to return.
