Made sure my autocorrect didn't spoil that title...

As always, let's keep it light and avoid any spite!

I now have an answer for anyone who calls me common for applying lippy in public. If it’s good enough for HMQ it’s good enough for Promise Wink

Fantastic link @PawneeParksDept
I live this giant. I hope she's still got it some where. Also the swishy cream cape; definitely due a rewear

I love this coat!

Princess Anne looked so stylish in those photos. It's easy to forget! These rules are so silly, aren't they? Lipstick okay but not the rest of it? Nowadays people wait to get on the train in the morning and do the full works in front of everyone!

Doria went to join a hippy commune. That is why Meghan lived with her dad.

Curley! Thanks for the bonus Daniel Craig pic!!

owlshooting · 17/12/2018 21:03

But Buddy, there is NO evidence for that at all is there?

queenofarles · 17/12/2018 21:07

I would like to send my NY card to
Prince Philip,

Has Max's Christmas card been revealed yet? Did I miss it?

I think I would aim for the royals who's cars I would see otherwise so
Anne, Sophie, Eugenie would love it if Fergie did a card that would be a great one I'm sure

itswinetime · 17/12/2018 21:21

*cards I don't care about royal cars Wink

What happened about lunch at Buck Palace today? Did it happen or not? Anyone know?

itswinetime · 17/12/2018 21:40

I don't think it did I think it was either something else or old photos posted nothing anywhere about it and none of the immediate family pictured arriving. They have been in previous years. Teach me to trust twitter!

Moononthehill28 · 17/12/2018 21:48

Ah! Disappointing!

itswinetime · 17/12/2018 21:49

A new Letizia dress tonight bit sparkly for my taste.

Leti! The shoes! Your poor feet!
I love Anne's bag - the black squarish handbag. I want it.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 17/12/2018 22:07

Who is this little scamp?
Well it’s Prince Alexander, the son of hottie Prince Carl Philip of Sweden

How awesome would Balmoral be for Christmas ? I guess it is just too far for everyone toms help up for effectively a couple of days.

Ok, knowledgeable posters. Not a quiz, but I was wondering for my own knowledge; what is the difference in roles between and Equerry and a Private Secretary?

itswinetime · 17/12/2018 22:18

This might be wrong but I think equerry are ex military when private securities don't have to be! Disclaimer that maybe completely wrong sure others know more and will be along shortly.

The Christmas lunch is usually Wednesday of this week, I think.

kooshbin · 17/12/2018 23:23

I do like the sparkly dress Princess Anne wore - in the link provided by Pawnee.

Despite Anne rarely doing the princessy thing, when she occasionally does the glamorous, she does it extraordinarily well.

mikado1 · 17/12/2018 23:28

I got a gift of a bag v like Anne's square one but black and red! I think I will get some Mary Janes and a mini and tights to go with it. :)
