I found this story this morning and had to laugh.

it comes from an article in the Daily Mail concerning extracts from a new book about the Cherie Bleuuugh.

"The apparent tensions, however, did not stop the late Queen Mother inviting Mrs Blair to an afternoon tea party for her elderly women friends during a Balmoral holiday. According to Scott: "It was not just tea but a steady supply of sherry that was on offer to the titled OAPs. "The party began in a genteel enough manner, but as the afternoon progressed it steadily descended into a raucous singalong with the Queen Mother leading from the front and insisting that a mortified Cherie join in every tune."

How I would love to have been a fly on the wall at that little gathering. Tea hee!
