...reely and mistletoe hung here about, the young ladies of the house would be very excited to be standing near to a young, good looking footman! Let’s hope they didn’t get up to too much mischief when the butler wasn’t looking!

...reely and mistletoe hung here about, the young ladies would be very excited to be standing near to a young, good looking footman! But it wasn't just the ladies – the story goes that when the butler went down to the wine cellar to bring up more champagne for the party, he heard a lot of giggling coming from one of the store rooms. As he peeked through the door he saw one of the young gentleman of the house in a passionate embrace with one of the housemaids! Let’s hope the butler didn't see anything else!

...reely and mistletoe hung here about, the young ladies would be very excited to be standing near to a young, good looking footman! The story goes that one young lady ran down to the servants quarters to steal a Christmas kiss from a footman – when the butler came down to replenish the wine stock he found them in a very compromising position!
Well, that butler certainly saw something he shouldn't have!
