"'As as family we have always prided ourselves on being exclusive, Colonel Race. My dear mother would never have dreamed of calling upon any of the Hartz family who, outside their wealth, were nobodies.'"

"If you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you." Friedrich Nietzche
Imaginary Place of the day:
Airfowlness - a remote part of western Scotland; its exact location remains unknown. Airfowlness is a gathering place for seabirds, who meet here before flying north to their summer breeding places. Visitors will be able to observe immense flocks of swans, geese, eider ducks, smews, gossanders, divers, petrels and gannets, outnumbering those seen anywhere else in the world.
