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...

Princess Anne and a paedophile
When I was about eight I was taken by my fairly elderly next door neighbours to see Princess Anne open Huddersfield Sports Centre. She swept past in a big black limo and waved royally at all us plebs. I thought it was great as I was too young to understand the whole royalty/aristocracy/land-owning/parasitic nonsense that we love and die for.
Thinking back it was totally cool of my mum and dad to refuse to go themselves but they obviously thought it would be my kind of thing. I expect they saw it as an opportunity for a bit of nookie.
Anyway, some years later, I heard that the next door neighbours' son, who used to run a miniature train ride at the park got convicted for molesting little girls. Thank fuck I was a boy.
