Don't want to make this a TAAT, so I'll just say I have enjoyed everyone's observations on the royal family and it's made a boring weekend go much quicker Grin

Please continue if you wish to......

Thank you for sharing @Humpy84

This what happens when you're out of salad cream

ByeClaire · 28/04/2019 16:49

But as you were asleep Humpy that was non-consensual toe sucking? The relationship boats would have something to say about that.

Apparently there is or was a man in Manhattan who specialises - as a paid service - in giving women feet orgasms (yes, that’s a thing).

Maybe look that up in the Urban Dictionary and look at explanation number 3 .....

My ex accused me of giving him what he called 'an asses kick' whenever he got amorous with me in the middle of the night. Basically, he'd put his loving arms around me, I apparently I kicked back like a horse gone wild - a kick with the hind leg you know? I'd never remember it the next morning! Good to know my sleepy self operates with the same policies as my awakened self.

ByeClaire · 28/04/2019 16:52

And that should have been ‘boards’ not ‘boats’. You can tell I’m a bit preoccupied by yachts.

The Palace won't comment on this until something substantiated is printed (i.e. photographs).

And I don't see that ever happening, as any newspaper who prints anything about an affair will immediately be put on a black list.

Ok, I'm going to break cover and talk about a Royal.

I watched PW giving a speech on YouTube, and it struck me that he has the same delivery as Diana. He obviously isn't comfortable speaking publicly and his diction is not clear. I don't know how he's going to get round that other than by doing it again and again till he feels more at ease. I have enormous sympathy as I hate public speaking but fortunately I don't have to do it.

Not in the tossed salad league but apparently toe-sucking is known as "shrimping".

The education continues.....

You can talk about PW all you like. He’s not a pregnant woman.

ByeClaire · 28/04/2019 17:08

Speaking of which... can you imagine if a RF member was trans? That would cause MN to explode.

Iamnotagoddess · 28/04/2019 17:11

@MagicKingdomDizzy

Seriously Urban Dictionary- definition number 3 Grin

Whoops75 · 28/04/2019 17:11

ByeClaire, I don’t think so.

Infidelity is a shit choice being trans isn’t.

VoteJadot · 28/04/2019 17:13

TBF the adjective relating to alliteration is alliterative not alliterate, so that poster was indeed wrong.

SalemSpellman · 28/04/2019 17:13

Oh good Lord. I was intrigued by what "salad tossing" meant. I looked it in the urban dictionary, it was not what I was expecting!

MagicKingdomDizzy · 28/04/2019 17:14

ByeClaire I think any LGBT would be covered up. I know that the royal family is moving into more modern times, but I don't think they would be OK with it being public.

Given the number of people in the royal family, statistically there should be people of LGBT orientation but I don't know of anyone who is public about it?

The finger firmly points at DOY there ...

Boysey45 · 28/04/2019 17:16

The Queens cousin is gay and married to a man.
I think Prince Edward is at least Bi if not fully gay but hes not out.

Whoops75 I’m not saying trans is a shit choice. It was a tongue in cheek comment about the intersection of there being so much trans discussion on MN and some threads about the royals being deleted.

ByeClaire · 28/04/2019 17:19

And Magic I agree that any LGBT (adding Q+) would be covered up currently. Sadly.

Ah. Yes. Fair enough.
I just read that in the papers at the time and didn't think to go looking years later for an alternative to felching.
To be fair, though, the first definition in UD is toe-sucking.
Still, new day,new knowledge Smile
