Both Claudia and Aiden's guy are great. Aiden, he's smokin! Rawr! And Claudi looks cheeky.<br/><br/>Yes, lacuna I was thinking the school has been running some years and the Baudelaires come from old money - old perverted money. I have added some background to Miriam to fit this, let me know if it's OK.<br/><br/>That floor plan is great, what software did you use? I especially like the graphics for furniture and fittings, I draw all mine by hand!<br/><br/>I can try to do an upper floor for you, give me a while. I think the pool should be a bit bigger in relation to the size of patio but we can imagine that. I think kennels and stable block can go on the opposite corner of the patio but down a short drive of a hundred yards or so - don't want the stable smells that close to the house.<br/><br/>Can we assume that all three staff ride and take horses out around the island. There are several large dogs that the servants take care of which are used to aid security. And other duties of course.<br/><br/>I can include a sauna and hotub as part of a roof terrace if you like, for staff use only. Students can be taken up there in an evening and get a special treat if they've been very good, its otherwise off limits and they are unaware of it.<br/><br/>What did you think of my suggestion that there is a small port/town on the island? Having the public within easy access is good for humiliation games/scenes, although if you'd prefer the island to be entirely private we can take the students to the mainland for those purposes.<br/><br/>What time of year are we starting - as in when is Claudia's birthday?
