Title: Shower
Post by: Rob C on March 18, 2016, 07:51:52 am

Standing in the shower a few minutes ago, I was put in mind of yachts, and how ownership is compared with doing as I was doing, but whilst tearing up large-denomination banknotes.

I instantly thought of this chap, whose daughter Norman Parkinson photographed for her 21st.

Quite a read. But then, ¡Hola! told you all about it years ago!

Just to clarify for landlubbers, here's the definition of a "yacht:"

"A hole in the water into which you pour money."

Cheapskate! If you want to be a big spender, try wood! Osmosis is kind - an expression of love from the yard.
