Last year our preconceptions about Victorian England were challenged by the view from below stairs as relayed to us by Betsy.
We started our current season of Speaker Meetings by inviting Betsy to tell us how she progressed to the dizzy heights of being a Housekeeper.
Proud of her black dress, and her bonnet, and particularly of the set of keys which denote her status it was impossible not to enjoy her tale of the misunderstandings which led to her totally unmerited promotion.
Imagine a household ruled by Betsy!
Join us next year for an update on her latest promotion.
