This is a question 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...

Awful Weather...
Back last year I was given the task (as part of a charity representative do-darr that I was) to introduce Princess Anne to a group of 16-25 year olds.

Now i'd been given the chat..

"Call her Mam"
"Nod your head, not your whole fucking back"

and last but not least

"Don't mention the bloody dogs"

But not the immortal "Wait to be spoken to before speaking".

So there we are - she askes me what im doing in my real life so we talk slightly about being a student - Im thinking the words AS'es and A2's mean absolutly nothing to that woman due to the gormless "I have no fucking clue what youre talking about" face she pulled.

Anymahoosa, I introduce her round these little horseshapped groups of people I decide that I should make conversational chit-chat.

Putting on my best "Im not really from Dudley, Honest" voice I make a comment about the torrental rain followed by blinding sun followed by torrental rain that had plighted the day.

"Awful weather today don't you think ma?"

And she just looks at me, looks at me as if Ive just killed her dog or shoved a cucumber up my ass and started singing "I hate Royality and down with Government" (the unreleased song by Blue).

"Yes...Indeed. April Showers Don't you know"

And then she storms off - thinking shes holier than thou...

I mean, seriously, who does she thing she is? The Queen's Daughter or something...



pfft.
