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...

Let's see...Played rugby against Prince Eddie (previously mentioned in a QOTW)
Encountered Prince Charles half way up Lochnagar. He was sitting doing a watercolour, and I chatted to his (rather bored) minder. Didn't actually speak to Chas, but he was within eatshot and I guess he didn't want to speak to this warm fish.
Fergie dropped in at "my" hotel to collect some Hooray Henrietta (to bugger of to the Craigendarroch, probably.)
But best of all, I shook Willie Miller's hand, and polished the UEFA Cup. True Royalty.
