Thread by @artisbrutal2021

So, I did this recent thread on Chrissy Teigen's PR work with McDonald's when Watford-boy Steve Easterbrook was a big cheese with the company..

and found something I think is quite interesting..

"Farmer Mark Baxter who is married to Mr Easterbrook's sister Joanne said: 'Looks like Steve has been a naughty boy. ..'.

Mark, who owns a 400-acre farm near Berkhamsted in Hertfordshire, said Easterbrook was divorced from wife Susie at around the time he moved to America .."

Mark Baxter > Well Farm, Berkhamsted HP4 2QA

Right next to Mark's farm..

"During WW1 Berkhamsted was an important centre for troop training, & a new information board has been installed on Berkhamsted Common, w/ support from the Chilterns Commons Project"

Ok, let's leave that for a minute.. I also did another thread recently.. to do with the ownership of a series of nurseries

and stopped at a director who lives in Berkhamsted ..

Got my trusty map out and found that coincidentally

Well Farm is 3 minutes from that address

So what?

Well, there's more.. much more..

Troop training in Berkhamsted next to a Baxter farm 🤔

I've done posts about a Baxter family in the past , connected to their moving company and a Ministry of Defence contract..

coincidence..?

Gerald Frederick BAXTER from that MoD fraud case ☝️(which the MoD later dropped)

getting my map out again...

Church Barn Chesham is only 6.5 miles from Well Farm

Notice the A41 running through the middle? ..

So many tentacles to explore..

Let's return to marketing consultant Jane Emma BUCKNALL , Berkhamsted resident, and a former director of KIDS OUT OF HOURS LIMITED

before moving to Berhamsted she was at
46 Dennington Park Road, London

That's in #Hampstead

After Gerald Baxter's MoD court case, his company Momentous Relocation (Thatcher and members of the royal family were customers) was taken over by Paul Evans.. his office was at Heath Lodge in Hampstead

I've already done a lot of work on the Hampstead case and Heath Lodge and the notorious Bishops Avenue , known as Billionaires' Row by the press.. with connections to the Aliyev family of Kazakhstan

"Today, Berkhamsted Castle is protected by law as an ancient monument. The ruins are operated as a tourist attraction by English Heritage.. Ownership of the land is still held by the Duchy of Cornwall

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkhamst…

"The land containing earthworks immediately to the north and west of the Castle ruins was donated to the Minister of Works on 30th August 1957, as it was so uneven as to be unproductive. That area is now owned by

the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport and managed in conjunction with the Duchy of Cornwall’s property. The land containing earthworks to the east of the Castle ruins was retained by Coopers, and then Wellcome, for pasture...

Wellcome Foundation Limited formed a joint venture with Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI) called Cooper’s Animal Health Limited, in March 1984, which continued to own the land to the east of the Castle. That company was sold out to an American animal health company in the

late 1980s, and the land transferred between group companies in 1997. The UK subsidiary, MKG Medical UK Ltd, kindly donated the 3 acres (1.2 hectares) of land containing earthworks to the east of the Castle ruins to Berkhamsted Castle Trust, for the benefit of the public, in 2018

"In 1992 the Wellcome Foundation sold its environmental health business, including the Berkhamsted site to the French company, Roussel Uclaf. The chemical company, Hoechst (Roussell’s major shareholder) joined forces with Schering to form AgrEvo. .."

"..The Berkhamsted site has been part of AgrEvo UK since 1995. The site finally closed on 31 July 1997."

Roussel Uclaf S.A. was a French pharmaceutical company and one of several predecessor companies of today's Sanofi 👀

A brief look at the A41
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A41_road
a trunk road between London and Birkenhead Now in parts replaced by motorways, it passes through or near Watford , Kings Langley, Hemel Hempstead, Aylesbury , Bicester, Solihull, Birmingham, West Bromwich, Wolverhampton, Newport ,

Whitchurch, Chester and Ellesmere Port.

London to Kings Langley : Named the FINCHLEY ROAD , the A41 is dual-carriageway through Swiss Cottage and Hendon Way and intersects with the North Circular Road near Brent Cross shopping centre

"The A41 overlaps the A1 at Five Ways Corner with the section known as Watford Way. It passes through Mill Hill, separating with the A1 at Apex Corner roundabout After crossing the M1, near ELSTREE , it links the M1 at Junction 4 .. "
