Aristocrats want to be celebs too
While peasants like you and me would end up in court, and have the keys thrown away automatically as we were carted off if we were found on a 450 mile trip with almost four times the legal alcohol limit in our bodies, the aristocracy reckons that they should be classed as celebrities, and allowed to swan off to a holiday camp instead- even though they already had a six month ban for speeding offences, and that’s a series of speeding offences, not just one. As well as being disqualified, that means driving uninsured as well, so tough luck for anyone hit or killed.
Poor little Katrina Bovill, a 36 year old artist and sister-in-law to the Earl of Hopetoun, was stopped by police on the A9, and despite the string of offences, and existing sentences, was considered for jail, but this was deferred for six months – maybe the presence of her father, Major Bristow Bovill, was a reminder to the judge to keep him in his place.
Everyone will be glad to know the poor little girlie is off to start a residential five-week alcohol detox programme in the Surrey clinic of Life Works to dry her out, and probably let her start all over again.
As has always been said, its’s not what you know, but who you know.
