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...

Feeling up the QueenThe Queen herself came to my school some years ago to officially open our brand new Six Form Centre (which had been built with a hefty wad of cash from the Sultan Of Brunei, but that's another story).
After the ceremony, she was to make a speach to the upper school in the main hall. We were waiting for her Maj to arrive, when she appeared at the back and started walking up the ailse. I was in an aisle seat so thought this would be a perfect opportunity to touch the Queen, as I'm sure not many can say they've done that.
She was walking on my side of the aisle to get to the front stage so as she went past we gently brushed against each other and we rubbed shoulders (technically elbows but don't worry about minor details). So I've rubbed shoulders with the Queen of England don't you know.
I don't know whats so great about that actually.
