the Baroness von Stieglitz
on the occasion of her “Onomástico”.

Some admirers of the Baroness may have chosen to overlook a previous story thinking it to be a tad mired in a mirky past. To refresh memories of those who may want to know details of a previous gift from El Duque to the Baroness, they can CLICK HERE to read “The Truth about the Brooch”.
Glad you changed your mind about the fox…..we are very sensitive about those little buggers in Tasmania.
Oh Michael, Edmundo is a hoot and so full of it!! He should have been a writer, fictional of course.
Amber necklace does look very attractive.
Looks like you are having a great time.
Love Julie x
If this story is true El Duque de Cobos should be writing his memoirs!
WOW! You two certainly leave no stone unturned – so to speak. Magnificent piece of jewellery to grace the neck of the Baroness. Is this one the ‘real deal’ or another one like the beautiful blue piece?
Where were the Turners while you were getting up to these shenanigans?
Sounds like you are having a wonderful time.

M, I sent Juanita my birthday wishes, but they were in English.

The Baroness did in deed received the special communication from El Duque – however she has been somewhat delicate following a birthday celebration involving MOET (I am sure you will agree that if it was not Cristal, at least an appropriate brand to mark the occasion).
Also, she wanted to do some research about the rail line used to transport the amber, as she thinks one of her long lost family members in Argentina was responsible for building it. As you know many left Europe with squillions in art collections to hide out in that most elegant of countries.
She is currently in repose (appropriately at midday) with a headache and hot water bottle, but is still able to contemplate whom she might sleep with to make sure she keeps up her “end” in society – so to speak.
Also she has flashes of Feodora being a hat, and cannot get out her mind her own Akubra which is, as we all know, made of that most Australian of skins – no not fox fur – but rabbit.
Rambling and raving, she knows, but only matched by his Excellency El Duque…
She does however have a love of Amber and is thrilled to be adding to the jewellery collection..
Fondest Love to all Baroness..
PS whose maternal grandfather did work on rail lines in Argentina, before he escaped the Peron regime to arrive – guess where – Launceston Tasmania..
FROM THE HUMBLE ROSEWOOD DESK(with Ivory marquetry)OF THE WAZIR OF NANDALAYA
HER HIGHNESS The Rajmata of Nandalaya has instructed me to send this mail as a warning to ONE AND ALL and may THE ALL with HER permission share on their Face book so there is no corner left in this world where this scheming duo can hide.
This duo are leftovers from the Arabian Night Fairy tales. The Rajmata had presented them with a first ever made Fedora from Her hat collection and now to think that their twisted minds have converted THAT FEDORA into a woman!
I further write and to substantiate my statements am enclosing a photograph.
ONE AND ALL kindly be warned that the so called AMBER ROOM now lies In a crystal container melted like molten gold outside our FAMILY TEMPLE.it has become our family deity and BE WARNED NOT TO PLAY AROUND WITH OUR SENTIMENTS–we may be a secular country BUT WHERE THIS IS CONCERNED WE ARE NOW FORCED AT GIVING OUR NATION AN IDENTITY.

You two guys are TOO MUCH!
