Encounters with RoyaltyMy good friend Jonathan once had to entertain the Queen whilst she had her portrait painted. The night before he was panicking as he didn't know any clean jokes.
Have you met someone royal? Are you royal? We'd like your story...

Met Bill Clinton once.Was at some conference thing in the US, when he'd finished speaking all his countrymen rushed to the front of the room, forming a line. I was at the front anway, so I stayed around to see what was going on. He walked along the line, shaking everyone's hand. I wasn't interested, but just as he got to the chap next to me, I raised my hand to scratch my head. He skipped that guy and grabbed my hand, shaking it vigourously. I remember he had a firm grip and orange skin.
Oh and before his speech started, a MASSIVE man came out who was standing about 3ft to his left. I was thinking he was the guy who was going to dive and take the bullet should anyone try it on.
Nope, he was the guy doing the sign language.
