THE STATE OF THE UNION? DID YOU EVER STAY IN THE ROYAL HOTEL?

Royal Hotel Bangor.

The Belfast Lundyletter continues it bizarre series of abstract nonsense which it has themed "State of the Union 2021." It`s a pity it would not turn its attention to the "State of the Union circa 1971-74"

A claim has been made in new book which will surprise you all I am sure. lol It alleges that the very pretty South African "girlfriend" of a guy calling himself Jack was placed as a "receptionist" in the famous Royal Hotel in Bangor.

This is from the book, I am sure the publisher won`t mind the reproduction. Probably the work of a "fantasist" anyway.

"With the help of Special Branch, Jack got her the receptionist job at the Royal Hotel and a place to stay- a cosy flat above above a shop next to the railway staion in Helen`s Bay.
The security forces were accommodating because this gave them covert access to the nitty gritty of who was guilty of marital, sexual and cross-sectarian misdemeanours at the hotel well known for its descretion. Special Branch and MI6 agents would loiter in the hotle lobby. A Loyalist or a Republican politician would arrive at the hotel with soemone who was obviously not his wife. If they checked in as "Mr and Mrs Smith" - or "Mr Smith and son"- it would be confirmed they were up to no good.

And easy prey to State blackmail.
Dirty tricks.
Dirty sheets.
Ann Mary often wondered why Jack was so interested in the hotel register."

What a pity it would be if the state of the Union in 2021 has already been shaped to a large extent by the goings on at the Royal Hotel in the early 1970s !!!!!!!!!!! Perhaps the Lundyletter may conjure up an article considering this thesis.

Between the alleged goings on at the Royal Hotel, the goings on at Kincora, the goings on of Iris and the goings on in the Adams family you have the makings of a massive TV longrunning series which should last a lot longer than 2021.

Psalm 75:3-5
3 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.
4 I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:
5 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.
