Sunday 23 June, 9h30.
There was good mood in the air today, everyone seemed excited and kept walking through Stafford Terrace to put away a lot of stuff. Only Jim by chance didn't understand this agitation but he was surprised to see his boyfriend so active so early in the morning.
-You better get ready quickly Jim, said the rockstar.
-Why?
-Because we're going for a walk.
If it was meant to be a clue, it was pretty much missed.
-What exactly turns you on like that?
-Jim wake up goddamnit! We're going to Garden Lodge, added Freddie loudly.
So it was for that! Indeed all this good humor was therefore understandable.
-Gosh I had completely forgotten, exclamed Jim shaking his head. It's true you alluded to it.
-And it's finally almost renovated, there shouldn't be many people left when we get there.
-Did you invite your group to come to the event, asked the Irishman.
-Of course! They should be joining us shortly and since it will be a sunny today we will be able to fully enjoy the jewel of the house.
Jim raised an eyebrow, puzzled.
-What do you call the jewel?
-If I told you now it wouldn't be a surprise anymore, said Freddie tenderly wrapping his arms around his neck. But you'll see, I'm sure you'll like it.
-Ok then, smiled his man. I can't wait to find out.

-Is your house hiding behind those big walls, asked Brian quite surprised.
-Exactly my dear, responded the rockstar. It is time open that door, is everyone ready?
-Yes, echoed the others.
Freddie was the first to open the gate and enter the garden, followed closely by all his friends. He hadn't exaggerated when he said there was jewel in the house; indeed the first thing we could see was a huge garden very spacious and already very well maintened. But what impressed everyone was the size of the house, seen from the outside it clearly seemed immense so from the inside it must have been almost a palace.
Freddie had insisted however that nobody should go in there alone not until his guests had arrived, his man had of course not commented on it but he was sure that saying guests mean constant competition for the singer's attention. Everyone therefore spent the morning in the open air, smoking or spendind time in their own while Freddie had gone to sit on a small mound to observe the trees which rested peacefully (magnolias) then his man soon joined him.
