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...

I tried to meet the Queen Mum once.When I was a very wee Brownie, our Brown Owl made us endure several freezing hours outside the railway station, waiting for the royal carriage to arrive. EVERYONE had bought flowers to give to the little old lady. Everyone except me that is. All the flower bearing sycophants were pushed to the front by overbearing parents & got to shake her hand. I was completely ignored and consequently grew up into an embittered & desolate harridan.
If you can't see a moral there for potential parents, make one up.
