that's what comes of having a house full of wifelets. You just don't know where they've been.

He was a funny old thing. Entertaining to say the least - but 87 is not a bad innings.

[Mamyalynne]

He lived a full life - RIP

[Patsy33]

He certainly had a big personality.. RIP.

[Peter Pedant]

Hmm he had a darker side
he had a wife an wifelets - who of course had to rights at all when they er stopped being wifelets

The Dayddy employed his sibs on the estate whilst the then Lord Weymouth fracked around, - he was a dauber calling himself an arteest and living off his family money. He founded and led the Wessex independent party.
and as he said he would - he fired all his sibs from their estate jobs the day after his fathers death

and was careful to foster his image as a loveable sweet scatty old eccentric

[Lie-in King]

Mad as a brush, but fun with it - RIP.

RIP Lord Bath

Went to Longleat a few years ago and loved watching Animal Park. One of the better zoos around, I thought.

The ultimate eccentric R.I.P.

I gather he was a bit of a B to his son and his wife

[Bobbisox1]

I like him, the likes that be never seen again

[Prudie]

RIP to a colourful character. On the morbidly plus side, absolutely nobody famous is dying at the moment from anything other than coronavirus.

[Peter Pedant]
