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...

Phoning Buck HouseNever met a royal before, but spoke to their flunkies at Buckingham palace several times while working as a telephone operator: inevitably having reverse-charge calls (that's "collect" to you Mer'kans) politely but firmly refused.
Respect due, unwanted calls from the great unwashed to the number were quite regular, but the number remained the same for the 3.5 years I did the job.
