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'm sorry, this is a crap story, but the paint reminded me.I was talking to a guy yesterday who does some stuff with the Prince's Trust. As a result of this, he got to go to a tea party at Buckingham Palace. The invite apparently said "Bring an umbrella in case of rain" - this in the middle of a humungous heatwave.
So anyway, come the day, my mate turns up and says that Charlie, Camilla, bodyguards etc are all carrying umbrellas - every single one of them - even though they could have nipped indoors in about 20 seconds (and there wasn't a cloud to be seen anywhere anyway).
How queer.
What a shit story. I really am sorry, I just thought it was worth repeating...
