MM Links March [Week 3]
54 Answers
Hello again everyone and welcome to the third week of my reign as Lady Alex
of the Links.
Last week, I told you all that I was brought up in Scotland, but when I got married we moved to England. ("Missionary work" as some fellow Scots would have it!) When we lived in Essex (Yes, I was for a while an Essex girl!) and worked in central London, we made friends with people from all over the world. Quite a culture shock for someone from Fife: a county that until January of this year you had to pay a road toll both to enter and to leave!
Travelling to Europe and even to America (remember Freddy Laker?) became possible and we had the cultural delights of London's theatres on our doorstep, the quieter pleasures of the Essex lanes and villages and, for Lord Alex, lots of sporting venues. We found that we became very popular at this time in our life, as we offered a very handy overnight stop for Scots friends and relatives on their holidays.
