This is a question Encounters with Royalty

My 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...

She's actually quite pretty. I met her on a walkabout.
Some members of my family (not me, but I'm not bitter) got invited to tea with Prince Andrew and the Duchess of York when they were still together. A lovely time was had by all, and after it was over my brother pocketed the Duchess's teaspoon. He said he was going to have it mounted with a small engraved note saying "Fergie's Teaspoon" and the date or something, but I suspect it's sitting unwashed and wrapped in a serviette somewhere in a drawer. Or it's been sold on eBay.

My only other encounters are that Her Majesty waved to me once when I was 13, and my boss is trying to convince me it's a sound idea to photoshop our rabidly anti-royal Director's face onto my prized possession, an official portrait of HM and Prince Phillip, as a special treat for his birthday. Perhaps I'll be singing for food at the Fringe by next week.
