Currently i am sat amongst a zillion bills wondering which one needs paying first. My eldest dd needs shoes and i haven't had a decent haircut in god knows how long. My Oh lost his job and i'm the only one working.
Out of sheer boredom and the fact i like the comments Grin i popped onto The Mail online, only to be met with Prince Harry having a jolly old time on a £20'000 a week holiday. I thought we were all supposed to be in this together? it says the holiday was paid for by his father but when was the last time that lazy bastard had a job? So how can he pay for it? Yes it was us! the dickhead taxpayer who funded his little jaunt.

I'm so fucked off that so many people in this country are loosing there jobs, homes and yet these leaches are still living it up . Why,when times are so tough for thousands are we still paying for these people? they're no different than us. So why?

I knew it would come down to the old 'jealousy' argument. Jesus Christ, I am ok for holidays, thanks.

Yes there are lots of filthy rich people in the world. But they are not head of state.

True about the weather and wine. Think we have great cheese, excellent restaurants and great local produce, lovely cities and towns. And we speak English, more widely spoken than a french.

I think the possible issue with tourism here is the cost of UK visas which are much higher than Schengen ones.

'The Royals' are not just one person you know Framey - it was different people on those holidays!

flatbread - no Royals in France now, but they still capitalise on the homes of French royalty to bring in tourists.

And so why not follow the French example and do away with the royals then Smile

I know ajandjjmum, but wills and Kate have had 2 and Harry has had 2 all in the last 6 months. At least those are the ones we know about.

I'd love to go on holiday with Prince Harry. I hate skiing, but he's a fucking riot.

Then Kim - don't buy the papers that write about them.

I am a royal supporter, but we're all entitled to our opinions. Along with liking hot tubs, I'm obviously a total chav! Grin
