The evening meal, iftar, normally social, is often something of a feast."I do not approve of anything that tampers with natural ignorance. Ignorance is like a delicate exotic fruit; touch it and the bloom is gone. The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did, it would prove a serious danger to the upper classes, and probably lead to acts of violence in Grosvenor Square."

If you haven’t ever been there , the Clan Donald centre lodges at Armadale are a really lovely place to stay. And you can get there in just a couple of days from most places in England.......I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.
