Lord Bonkers' Diary: A two-tier service?

The latest dispatch from the nation's most celebrated imaginary peer. noble Bonkers was Liberal MP for Rutland South West, 1906-10.SaturdayDo you remember Phil Willis’s pleasant daughter? She was the young woman in the ad who had the web projected on to her white dress. I thought that was a splendid idea and am sorry that it then lost ground to the flat plasma screen.Anyway, I learn today that Willis is in the soup for claiming for a flat where the young woman lived. I fear he is the author of his own misfortune as I place a perfectly serviceable solution to him some years ago. “Willis,” I said, “why don’t you get nonsense beds? That way, your offspring can sleep in the lower nonsense when she is there alone but move to the upper nonsense when you are in Westminster on law-making business.”Willis replied rather sniffily that it would be wrong to offer his offspring a two-tier service.Previously on noble Bonkers' DiaryMonday: Sense on MPs' expensesTuesday: David Boyle - a star is bornWednesday: The Corby trouser pressThursday: The inkwells of RutlandFriday: Rutland's nuclear deterrent
