OUR VERY OWN RESIDENT ROYAL

We are not,  exactly,  shy retiring types ourselves but even we are astonished at the photo-opportunity antics of someone in our midst.  

Whether it is having a photograph taken with Royalty,  to innumerable television appearances,  to promoting a million profiles with the  local landowner,  to promoting self-certified expertise in agricultural matters and  to promoting a profile with a national angling magazine  this individual is there,  self-promoting non-stop and seeking honour after honour.  No opportunity for a photo or to raise one's profile is allowed to pass by.   

This naked self-aggrandisement is like nothing we've ever seen before.  It's  a delusory illness with no insight whatsoever and deteriorates and degenerates into behaviour  more Royal than the Royals but without the style - and from an ardent Scottish Nationalist at that!!!  There is no cure.

For the rest of us,  meanwhile,   it's utterly cringeworthy and embarrassing.  It's a pity we cannot escape it.
