.... an invisible
and undetectable tracking device which you can attach to your
immediate family so that you know where they are every moment
of the day - and, especially, the night.
.... a dozen or so empty rooms where you can keep your invaluable
collection of holiday postcards, seaside souvenirs, vinyl
records, yellowing recipes, one-eared teddy bears, old magazines,
AA Milne books, chipped teapots, outdated and outgrown clothes,
teenage love letters, discarded toys, hockey sticks, twisted
tennis racquets, ancient exercise books, and mementos of long-forgotten
friendships, love affairs, holidays.
.... a large supply of canned soup, dried pulses and water
purifying tablets in case nuclear war breaks out or a sudden
famine strikes.
.... the odd excuse to be wildly extravagant - but not too
often.
