 文本:


And that's an accurate portrayal 1 of their relationship,because when it came to affairs of state, she was the one in charge, which leftpoor old Albert here, certainly in the early years, rather bored andfrustrated.


What was needed was something to keep Albert busy, andsorting outBuckinghamPalacewas just thething.


Prince Albertquickly realised that the Palace was in need of urgentreform. Despite the extortionate amounts spent on it, there were some shockingdesign flaws. There was poor heating, bad lighting 2 and a desperate lack ofhygiene. The kitchens in the basement were built without windows. And then thesewers underground often flooded into the kitchens. And as if that wasn't badenough, then a terrible stench would rise throughout the entire Palace.

这是对他们的关系最精准的描述,因为国家大事,都是由女王决定,把阿尔伯特撂在一边,刚开始呢,他也感到无趣和沮丧,当然阿尔伯特也需要找点事情来做,整理白金汉宫是最好的选择。阿尔伯特很快意识到白金汉宫需要紧急维修,尽管已经花了大本钱来修整宫殿。但是设计上的缺陷仍让人感到震惊,糟糕的供暖系统,照明系统,还有让人绝望的卫生。地下室的厨房竟然没有窗户,下水道的水经常涌进厨房,似乎这还不算最糟的。最糟的是,导致整个宫殿里弥漫着恶臭。
