[Davethedog]

[jackthehat]

Will you be travelling down to London, Stoke ?

[NazNomad]

Poo ... I don't work in a bank :-(

[jackthehat]

Yes, vibes..............A sad, sad man..........

[stokemaveric]

i wouldnt waste my money jack...why should i want to celebrate?? and why would millions want to line the streets and wave and cheer?? it always baffles as to why people do this..the royal family are a dysfunctional part of british life,althouigh i do admire william and harrys involvement in the military..the rest are a bunch of millionaires who drain our resources..

[jackthehat]

Well, stokie, keep your money safe in your wallet and let thems as wants to line the streets of London get on with it...........
I shan't be going, either but there's no doubting the happy atmosphere generated at such an event.

[Sqad]

stoke....it baffles me too.....streets lined with cheering crowds, 80 million watching on TV......not me mate, I shall be i my expensive villa along with other paupers.

[starone]

Perhaps it's rent-a-crowd stoke. I was once amazed at a colleague when I was at work who said she always sent a birthday card to the queen-mother. Would you believe that? She would not believe me when I pointed out that all the birthday cards from people like her were put into sacks and disposed of and the queen-mother didn't even look at them. Some people!!!

[stokemaveric]

thats about right starbuckzone and we will soon be subject to the queens speech at xmas...i cant wait...

[starone]

A royalist are you red? Looked at? Perhaps! Disposed of? Definitely!

[starone]

Stoke - did you have to remind me. All I can say to that is thank the lord we have dvd and other forms of entertainment or even an 'off' switch.

[jackthehat]

No not disposed of, that would just be silly.
She'll have kept every single card sent to her (just like we all do !) over her 100 years.......she has a warehouse in Slough given over to precisely that !

[Sqad]

JTH....LOL

starbuck.......some people are Royalists, some people are not.....that is hardly the point as the UK is a Monarchy.

Change it by all means if you have the support and public inclination.

[starone]

Lovely, Jack, you are a master of invention. I can just picture that bulging warehouse. Might make useful fuel at some time in the future if it gets very cold in the coming winter for instance.

[starone]

Sorry, sqad, too old, too apathetic, and the wrong gender. Doesn't stop me thinking though and sometimes putting my thoughts into words.
