Post by: drterror666 on April 07, 2011, 10:46:20 am: I've taken the three days off work so I'm happy. But I would like a sniper option on my TV so I can murder the lovely couple in cold blood.

Some people do actually have to work Bank Holidays and Public Holidays. And even in three day weeks the washing and ironing and cooking and cleaning still have to be done!

Post by: oldspice on April 26, 2011, 08:58:23 am: Who cares? He's about thirty isn't he?

Apparently Sir Elton John is attending the wedding so perhaps he can giver William the name of the person responsible for the thatch he currently sports.

(and don't be lazy and say 'who?'... you have access to google, you know!)

Post by: smurfboy on May 04, 2011, 02:11:01 pm: Interesting to see neither Blair or Brown got an invite. The official story is that neither are Knights of the Garter (John Major and Maggie Thatcher, who did get invited, are). I reckon the unofficial story is that The Queen said 'I'll teach that jumped-up bitch Cherie Blair not to curtsey to me' and laughed like hell.

Knights of the Garter! Doesn't it make you scream? What would you give to be a Knight of the Garter? Ahey? Ahey? What must foreigners think of us?

Post by: drterror666 on May 11, 2011, 10:49:18 am: Well, can someone hurry up and blow up William then? I'm sure the funeral would be a Bank Holiday?

Ooh, I can be cruel!!!
