“The intelligence product from this series of meetings between the Bunteresque MI5 man and Gutteridge was speedily disseminated throughout Whitehall.”

“I drew a mushroom cloud; a man holding up a severed head next to a guillotine; an apple with an arrow through it; a rather Bunteresque schoolboy, braces emphasising his girth, reaching out towards a giant icecream cone; and a bus heading for a tunnel in a hillside.”

“I exchange pleasantries with the old history buff on the till and spend a fascinating hour or so on the official tour of the house itself, marvelling at the Bunteresque enormity of a former earl's pantaloons; but when it comes to the guided walk around the grounds and gardens, I slip away to the riverfront path and, I don't mind admitting it, thoroughly enjoy my extensive ramble right along the western straits, almost as far as Newborough Warren itself.”
