What is the damn fancy people have with the status of their royals!
I never could relate to that. Especially not with such royals that are less so in their home country and more so on a certain republics riviera.

Though I must say I have been keeping a glancing eye on the proceedings of (ex)-king Michaels funeral. It's interesting how a king like that that rarely mattered past the communist takeover could become such an important symbol of unity now that the secular and worldly democratic government has proven itself so utterly corrupt.

Ah well, three cheers for the ginger and his lady anyway!

The wedding is scheduled for the same day as the Cup Final. Bloody hell are people going to be torn! (Well, other than myself and people like me: two reasons I don't need to watch the news all day instead of just one.)

Should be a damn easy decision. A cup final is something you want to watch real time.

A wedding, you can record it and watch later.

Whooop-dee-fucking-doo.
Fuck 'em both for the damned parasitic leeches that they are.

Death to Kings!

I just suddenly got an image of my setting up a video camera to record the new paint on my wall drying. [;)]

Par for the course that a given name (like a given noun, verb, etc.) has it's spelling bounced around when crossing borders. Not to mention pronunciation. That's how 'Modern English' came about in the first place.

It was much worse than your (or rather my) example in the early going.

I wouldn't doubt that the Prince of Wales accepts a number of different spellings of that name, given the history, including the five or eight different spellings before there was any America.





I stand corrected: a friend of a FB friend is called 'Meghan' - and she's British, born and bred.

This makes me chortle: "'Harry has fallen for her play' Meghan accused by childhood friend of being calculating" in the Daily Express (arguably a paper even more gnashingly right wing than the Mail). "However, among the outpourings of joy and portrayal of a fairytale relationship that all began with a blind date, notes of caution are being sounded. There are some who claim that Miss Markle’s rapid transformation from jobbing actress to concerned citizen of the world has been just a little too calculating."


Well, this is news!

Someone being 'calculating' in the arena of politics or business or royalty, or concerning advantageous marriage, etc. Oh my!

For a person (like the writer) who's never read a single sentence of history or good fiction ("historical" or culturally descriptive romance/mystery/etc. or otherwise), this is indeed "news."

Those conniving bitches. Conniving to make themselves seem attractive to families whose überworldly wealth derives entirely from . . .

Being victims. Right?

Or at least contributing as well as they could to society after enslaving them, right?

Ninety percent profit after all input cost including child labour, 10% tithe to church (whose scripture explicated that acquisition for its own sake is best expression of piety) and charity . . . What a deal!

Oh, but for the good old days.
