“Nice work if you can get it”.

I see that ‘er Maj’s useless bloody tribe will visit the nations where she is still hanging on as head of state, major Commonwealth countries, and other destinations with close links to the UK next year. Gawd only knows why ?
Oh ! of course, it’s the old gal’s ‘Diamond Jubilee’ year. Mind you they always make state visits sod off to warmer climes most years when the British weather gets a bit nippy, and Randy Andy has, at tax payers’ expense, found his way around just about every golf course and luxury hotel in the world. This time he can play the ‘pukka sahib’ in India and ‘bag’ a tiger or two, although with a bit of luck a ‘tiger’ might bag him.
Willy and Katie are off to Malaysia, Singapore, the Solomon Islands and Tuvalu. I wonder if there are still cannibals about in those parts? If so, they won’t be very pleased to see that the skinny duchess would not add much meat to the pot.
‘er Maj and Phil the Greek will be “working hard” as usual as they trundle around the UK, shaking hands and accepting flowers from little kids who’s pushy mums elbow silly old ladies out of the way in a bid to get on the TV news.
Potty Prince Charlie and Cruella Camilla will travel to Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea (will someone please tell the headhunters that they could bag a royal trophy) as part of the celebrations, and the ‘ginger spare’ Apache helicopter pilot and piss artist, will tour Belize, Jamaica and the Bahamas. Well it beats getting shot at in Afghanistan.
Horsey Anne is off to Mozambique and Zambia while her twit of a younger brother and his wife soppy Sophie get a nice little trip to the West Indies and Gibraltar.
Wouldn’t it be great if when they all reached their destinations …
… they bloody well stayed there ?

John, With that lot out of the way, I think you should start an Occupy a Palace protest! You could have great fun sliding down the bannisters or from one end of the ballroom floor to the other in your sock soles!
Don’t get lost in the Four Posters.

Sure hope none of that crowd are coming our way. There was a time when Americans refused to curtsy or bend a knee to royals. Now, quite a few pucker up ready to plant a kiss on the first blue-blooded buttocks that looks likely to get within range. It’s not progress.

Now tell us how you really feel, John?

Good, let Andy come over here and find some tigers before he can shoot. He will get our highest civilian award if he can. But the pucca sahib bit will go down well with some of our fossils.
