Oh my god! That looks very much like the Royal Holloway College. It's not very far from Windsor great park.

Hundreds of students milling about.....bloody noisy bunch.

Not so many students between terms. Actually, I didn't eat eggs & ham there either, it was, I thought, just a clever hint.

And, sir, I KNEW I could count on you. Can you remember the name of that great building... not that you need to, just wonderin'.

Yes, Lord E, it is your turn.

I guess this is a real life version of that cruel phrase... "you snooze, you lose."


The building, btw, is called The Founders Building. It was the used as the hospital in the film The English Patient, I think. Place is absolutely surrounded with rabbits and a strange kind of barking deer. Very odd.

I didn't go to school there. It just happened to be where my daughter's choir stayed while they were on a sing-about. It is quite a nice place to stay if you're traveling and their limited schedule fits yours, though the trains aren't so frequent as you might like.

I'm assuming this home you've posted is in England?

The person in question was very good at politics, but he/SHE is not remembered for being a politician. (big clue)

Well, it doesn't look like Linlithgow where Princess Mary (Queen of Scots was born) nor Greenwich Palace where Princess Elizabeth was born.


Am still looking. Akkkkk.
