Nellie I used to get into the Tenant's Hall at Tatton Park for free at Christmas when I lived in Manchester- by waiting on tables during the festivities.
It was a long draughty walk from the kitchen and the Cheshire set were not always the nicest guests to serve, but some of the older waitresses (70+ I kid you not) used to go behind the curtains with bootlegged drinks and could hardly walk by the end of the evening.
