For royal staff members, Christmas at Sandringham is a hectic, yet strictly scheduled time of year, but despite their set-in-stone traditions and time tables, things occasionally do go wrong. Princess Diana's former royal butler, Paul Burrell, tells Marie Claire that along with singed eyebrows and BB gun fiascos, the unthinkable almost happened with one of Queen Elizabeth's corgis.
Speaking on behalf of Casino.org, Burrell says, "One year, I had a real disaster. The lake at Sandringham had frozen over, and one of the corgis decided to try and cross it."
