The Champagne Hunt Continues....

Whilst Princess lay stricken and inconsolable in her bed...

The Empress Dowager made an awful discovery, the cellar had also been cleaned out!....

Instructions were given to hastily search the grounds....

Much evidence was produced.....

The houseboys were exhausted after their extensive search of the Palais and Grounds

There Was Only One Thing To Do....

Princess placed a call to her trusty purveyor of fine Champagne....

And then to Dear Mr Pierson.....

And as always he was very punctual with his delivery....

And the Champagne Room could be re-opened...

The Champagne Bar was fully restocked....

Which pleased the Empress Dowager to no end..

And to say the least Princess was delighted....

And Decided to Celebrate....
