Request Friendship

Gertrude, Baroness Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg

I am related to all the royal houses of Great Britain and the Continent. It is highly doubtful I will accept your friendship unless we have met socially.

    That Mountbatten book looks quite interesting, Gertie. I'm looking for the best biography on Queen Victoria. Right now, I have one that I don't think is very good at all. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you so much for your kind note. I'm feeling much better, but am still dreadfully sorry to have missed the soiree, despite the obvious drawbacks. And it's so kind of Prince Carl-Phillip to inquire about me and my work, particularly since I think of that unfortunate piece as a rather bloody mess.

    I'm a budding Viticulturist, so is my dear brother, Hugo.

    It's a recent acquisition, Gertie.

    I've met the daughter briefly. I love the scenery, Farve has the loveliest little house. He grew up there you know. Well, when he wasn't away at school.
    I try to not tangle with the royal family, they hire people to beat their children, etc. Or so they say.

    Thank you for your concern. I shall take all precautions. I traveled to Swaziland only a few months ago and loved it there. I shall be in southern Africa with Istvan and then off to Australia, where you might know my family has a vineyard.

    Gertie,

    So sorry for the faux pas. And I prefer Dixie. It makes things easier when dear little Maggie Salisbury is around. Bless her.

    Trudie,

    I'm delighted to accept your friendship request, particularly since you're also involved with the RSPGH. One simply boils over with enthusiasm over charity work, doesn't one? Looking forward to seeing you at the investiture on Saturday.

    Fondest love,

    Dixie
