I popped into a pub this afternoon for a wee and a pint and they had a Royal Baby Name sweepstake board behind the bar.

Someone had suggested 'Dodi.' Grin

I actually wouldn't want to do their job (I really wouldn't, it would drive me up the wall). But I don't think they work particularly hard.

Does that count? :)

Check out talk guidelines tango

LastTangoInDevonshire · 24/07/2013 17:13

Oh well ledkr - so I admit to doing something that many many other posters do. I am suitably and dutifully humbled. I will make my way to the Tower right now. Sorry and all that.

LimitedEditionLady · 24/07/2013 17:14

Sorry for the spelling error,although im sure you can work out i meant idiots not idiotd.I was at work,i guess that will please you,that i work and all.That all you got?

YouTheCat · 24/07/2013 17:15

Nope, you also need to read the talk guidelines.

usualsuspect · 24/07/2013 17:20

What as you working got to do with owt?

LastTangoInDevonshire · 24/07/2013 17:20

Well, I consider the thread title to break the talk guidelines, actually.

No goading: Goad - Provoke or annoy (someone) so as to stimulate some action or reaction.

usualsuspect · 24/07/2013 17:22

Well MNHQ clearly didnt.

YouTheCat · 24/07/2013 17:22

Yes but Last, MNHQ have already said they aren't pulling the thread and that they don't consider that it does break the talk guidelines.

And if you don't like it go to another forum. Grin

LimitedEditionLady · 24/07/2013 17:24

Missed your other post.i havent commented on anyones class because thats doesnt matter to me,why would i care about someones class?a person is a person to me,you could live in a bin or be the queen and ill still give you the time of day.

Ledkr · 24/07/2013 17:26

Why would anyone be pleased you work?innthe context of the thread?
His strange that a load of grown women can't disagree without getting personal. I was with a good friend yesterday who is a gushing royalist. We had a bit of healthy debate and some light ribbing if each other but nothing more.

LimitedEditionLady · 24/07/2013 17:29

You dont like people to be a drain?

LimitedEditionLady · 24/07/2013 17:31

I dont know anything about you im expressing my opinion,thats allowed.

LimitedEditionLady · 24/07/2013 17:33

Surely it has to do with the title?

LastTangoInDevonshire · 24/07/2013 17:34

Oh no, YouTheCat - I love threads like this !

Well so was I LimitedEdition Grin

LimitedEditionLady · 24/07/2013 17:35

LastTangoInDevonshire · 24/07/2013 17:37

No, not me Limited - I leave that to my posh relatives !

LimitedEditionLady · 24/07/2013 17:40

Hahahaha yes,well obviously tango silly me

sheridand · 24/07/2013 17:40

Me, i'm just hoping for an expose from Kate as to how homeopathic remedies did bugger all during childbirth.

Alisvolatpropiis · 24/07/2013 17:42

Whilst I don't care that you don't like the Royals I don't find you particularly funny either.

Speaking of names, is James really likely? Not because of the "Hewitt link" but because it's Kate's brothers name.

InViennaWeWerePoetry · 24/07/2013 17:55

My dad has suggested Albert Richard Samuel Edward Grin
