strangely enough i occasionally read the papers or links, watch the news, its hard to avoid snippets of it, no matter how ya try.
So maybe you are a secret admirer .
I think the Queen is great . Some of her family may let her down , but she is beyond reproach .
When I reach her age I won't have done a billionth of what she has for her country .
yer entitled to be, as i'm entitled not too, i have no admiration fer anyone who regards me as a subject, if you wanna be one thats fine your choice.So maybe you are a secret admirer .

Errrm, forgive me for pointing out the obvious and pouring cold water on your republican fantasies but, actually if you were born in Britain or hold a British passport you are a subject of the crown whether you like it or not. It is not something that you can opt into or out of to suit your political preferences. The only way to get out of it is to seek citizenship from another country.
well yeh really are talking balls wi that un A-B, i have no republican fantasies or political preference, these days as all are a complete waste of space, n why can i not opt out of being a subject? i have simple as that, i refuse to accept the fact, as i said to JCB, you can be one if you desire, carry on i don't give a toss, its your choice.
i would watch teh speech if prince philip was doing it ,now that woudl be intersting
I like that idea. Let Brenda put her feet up next year, after all that ribbon-cutting and troop-inspecting. Let's hear Phil the Greek let rip!

Rail against it all you like mate, it does not alter the facts. Under our splendidly unwritten constitution we are all defined as subjects of the crown and since the crown is embodied in the monarch we are all subjects of Her Majesty. This can only change when the system of government changes from monarchy to a republic, or, as I said earlier, if you choose to seek the citizenship of another country.
Forgot all about it . We used to watch it every year but it docent seem too matter as much anymore
Hardly the same thing.
You can't compare Witchell to the sheep that stand in the snow, or whatever weather, for a glimpse of the Germans.
Witchell should be given respect, for getting on Charle's royal wick.
Charles (under his breath) "These bloody people. I can't bear that man. I mean, he's so awful, he really is."

...and he gets paid, for doing it.
All that interbreeding has maintained the genetic traits of the common ancestor of European royalty - hence, they are 'less than human'

MargaretR, you never cease to entertain. Are you suggesting there is a direct line of descent over 650 years from a prince of Wallachia(where?) to our royal family and they are therefore interbred vampires? Or potential impalers? If so can you elaborate, please. Any proof of descent or vampire activity would be most interesting.
Wikileaks, eat your heart out.MargaretR is here!
The topic is a 'hot potato'.
I have assembled my reply but prefer not to publish it in open forum.
Anyone with a genuine interest can PM me for it.
I daren't! Once you told me you might have to have me killed.
Knowledge available only to MargaretR could be a dangerous thing if passed on.Why? What had you done??
Go on- I dare you, you ask her!

No, you're alright. If the Royal Family really are 7ft lizards or something similar, I prefer not to know!
