    Good one Rob! What a neat, tidy room! The Queen would be proud.

    At the moment she's not! She's summoned the ROYal housekeeper to clear the "Command Center" of a 'ton' of items to sell on eBay [standard pre-retirement consolidation], the tripod and related photo equipment. :~)

    Almost too neat for any serious work. I'm especially intrigued by the framed picture above the recliner. Is it one of yours ?

    VERY nice watercolor of an English farm house & barn done by a neighbor and given to me as a gift... bought a totally different scene at a furniture store and researched it only to find the scenes are a town apart!! Some things are just meant to be, Sharon!!

    ROFL!! True, Fraser--on YOUR side of "the pond". But here we have millions of Queens/Mothers, all very much alive... and their husbands are all IHMS! ...and "Agents" receive their assignments on what is most commonly called the "Honey, do..." list [Honey, do this; Honey, do that].

    A very nice den! Made better with the presence of herself, the Queen Mother. Being a Queen Mother myself, I can appreciate all the baloney you put into your intro. :-) It is very appropo considering all the technical equipment you listed. Great setup!
