Before William had even had a chance to think Bess had both children in line for their behaviour giving her a little side eye and smile. He could use someone like her in his regimental company as a sargeant major he quietly thought to himself.

He turned his head slightly towards Bess and spoke "did my campaign equipment arrive from the army that I had at annual camp with me? Theres also another order in there for Lord Elcho. He wants a piece made for his anniversary aswell"

He looked to his kids once more. "I can show you a little later if you like? Once my luggage gets here I got some pictures and I can show you?"

He sighed "but first some food and a hot bath i think are in order, I need a decent soak as I've not had one in months"
