Sandringham House, the country retreat of the Royal Family of Great Britain, is not typically a big tourist attraction in the sense that Windsor Castle, Warwick and others are.
Yet Sandringham seems a fairly comfortable place, the one where the Royal family relaxes during informal visits, entertaining friends and enjoying the tranquility of the countryside of Norfolk.
Sandringham provides a curious combination: a sobering look at the acquisitive and monumental nature of monarchy, while at the same time helping the visitor to briefly grasp the ironically intimate and ordinary lives of a people set apart.

The letter from school children in Dersingham complaining about pheasant shooting at Sandringham displays a mastery of spelling and grammar far above the level one would expect from children of primary school age.
I am amazed that a school with such close links to an estate such as Sandringham has failed to point out the benefits which shooting brings for the local economy, the conservation of local wildlife and woodlands, and of course the inescapable link between the death of animals and meat on our plates.
