The Boy on Top
Oh NO. NO no no no no no. I can't bear the Royals...they make for interesting reading , I will admit, but they just poop and fart like me and therefore are just people. I couldn't care less about celebs and royals and all things famous.
But then I am a savage from Africa so what do I know? Just give me a beer and a slab of meat and I am happy.
Tell me, you would honestly turn down an invite to a garden party at Buck House? I don't believe you, nope, don't believe it. I may have to pretend to be you to SA House to see if you turn it down... TB
Wendy, the Queen may poop, but, like me, she certainly does not fart.
Tsk.
Indeed. TB
I was married 14 years to a woman who thought she was a Queen. Does that count as a Royalty Spot? Cheers!!
Only if she was a Whiner, no.. Windsor windsor... TB
I'll take you up on your offer. Get someone to mail me and I'll blow the lid off. Long as anonymous(ish) is ok. Least I can do.....
As for Royalty. Once met Prince Michael of Kent. Details are boring. Masons and stuff - I'm a Provincial Officer don't yew know - I think they cocked up lettin' me in....
Chatted to him about inter breeding 'til Caz dragged me away. He looked suitably bewildered....
Your a mason 4D? I am suitably impressed, or appalled, not sure which. My grandpa was a mason as was great grandpa (and so on into the mists of masonry), always said he'd get me in but died way to young. My dad thought it was too secret squirrel for him, so the tradition died. TB
By the way, regarding your final sentence - in the future, so far this year, or ever?
All three frankly. I'm always interested in tales of the past, and of all the bloggy folk I expect you may have one or two hidden up your sleaves... But a challenge too I think. TB
I associate 'Colonials' with Battlestar Galactica now 
.
My mum once made a posy for someone to give the queen and quite by chance it matched her suit and she carried it for the rest of the day. I think I WOULD turn down and invitation to a garden party though ... but not sure. Sort me one out and I'll let you know .
Now there's a memory cropping up I haven't thought of in a while...
Nope, the challenge laid down is for people to sort it themselves if they so desire... TB
Oh dear, you overestimate me - the Duchess of Kent (40 years ago), the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh (we were in a line-up that time), Princess Anne a few months ago (she talked to the Sage) and Prince Charles and Camilla last week (doesn't really count as they just went past in a horse-drawn carriage), but we don't live in the Royal part of Norfolk.
I was chatting to her former Chief Equerry yesterday, but I don't think that counts.
I'd say a former Chief Equerry counts. The chap who shoes the Queen's race horses works out of our village, not that I've met him. It makes for a lull in conversation though! TB
I've seen the Queen about half a dozen or so times, what with her living next door (wot wot).
But my closest brushes with the 'family' have been almost being run over by Edward and Sophie whilst out on my bike in Windsor Great Park, and drinking Tequilla at the bar next to Harry (and chums) in a nightclub in Windsor.
Also, on the 'getting involved with a charity' thing, it might be a good way of meeting royals, but it is also a pretty good way of having to actually do something charitable.
Isn't the correct wording, "She lives next door to me"...
I only do charitable work to meet celebs. Pity it takes so much of my time and I almost never get to meet them... TB
Oh! Top tips! Thanks.
