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......

I don't know about interesting body piercings but I got a tattoo from a tattoo artist who told me that a fellow Fife tattoo artist Inked A Prince around the time the Cambridges were finishing up university. He did say that he couldn't say which one as Harry did visit...

Matthew Wright isn’t presenting anything at the moment anyway, is he?

Does anyone remember that the big who ha a few years back to do with a guy who worked for the POW who they called his “fence” he had a lot on them including knowing about threesomes and a Senior make member of the Royal household sitting in bed having breakfast with another man.

It’s all very “A Place to Call Home” which I am addicted to Grin

Iamnotagoddess · 28/04/2019 15:02

Senior male!

Apparently the first royal to get a tattoo was George V back in 1881, it was of a blue and red dragon on his arm.

Iamnotagoddess that would be Michael Fawcett, and I'd love to know what he's got on the PoW which seems to have made him virtually unsackable ...

Puzzledandpissedoff

Oooh YES that’s him!!

Re Matthew Wright , per Wikipedia

"They married in 2010.[22] In 2013, they revealed they were trying to conceive a baby with the help of in vitro fertilization but three of their IVF pregnancies so far had ended in a miscarriage. His wife is unable to become pregnant naturally following an ectopic pregnancy.[22] In September 2018 it was announced they are expecting their first child.[23]. Their daughter, Cassady, was born in January 2019."

If he is not on air, couldn't he just be on paternity leave for this child they have waited 9 years for ?

If we post I 💓 Meghan at regular intervals maybe this thread will stand?

Gazza's cock is fair game!

Iamnotagoddess · 28/04/2019 15:06

@LadyBrienneofTarth

Also has PTSD.

MagicKingdomDizzy · 28/04/2019 15:07

I think MM must have a very good team scouring social media, she got off lightly on the other thread compared to PW, DoC, Prince Edward, Gazza and Donald Trump.......

I enjoyed the last royal thread. Feeling utterly down and CBA with doing anything, but the thread perked my interest. Speedballs, royals past and present, bits of our Christian history, tossed salads - what's not to love?

Snap! It's fair got me out of a bad funk these past couple of days. Unfortunately, it wasn't a James Brown style funk - now THAT would've been cool Grin

@MagicKingdomDizzy - popularity and reputation count for a lot for any monarch. I think the future of the monarchy itself is in the balance, they have done a lot of work setting up W&H&K to be the new face, new generation, and he'd be throwing all that work, plus damaging his personal life and that of his children.

VeryLittleOwl · 28/04/2019 15:08

I asked a journalist friend in New York what the coverage was like over there and she said it's been a pretty big story, but in the gossip mags, not the big papers.

NoYo - I am still trying to find out - google wont tell me!!

QueenOfTheCroneAge · 28/04/2019 15:14

@lookingelsewhere It's shit feeling like this isn't it? However, we can now say we aren't looking for salacious royal gossip. No, not us - this is our THERAPY Grin

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 28/04/2019 15:14

She does wear the most beautiful shoes these are my faves.......heads over to Royal style and beauty....

Nooo we cant mention salad tossing! Thats where it all started to go pear shaped because, apparently, salad tossing is not just the act of mixing different salady items together in one bowl- who knew??
And people were being libellous about MM when the original thread had nothing to do with her, and was being hijacked by people trying to derail the thread by making it all about her.
