Bloody Rodebjer, CPV must have shares in the company. However, here we have a cultural difference - there is a certain Scandinavian look to that that is appreciated there.

banivani · 28/08/2019 15:28

Here even. I am here. In Scandinavia.

I should probably add that I mean no malice towards our old friend, it's just that she was the first person I thought of when I read that bio!

Haha that's hilarious (and slightly terrifying!) Grin

Now now mean girls !!! Smile

DobbyTheHouseElk · 28/08/2019 18:08

Help me out? I think I know, but a clue.

hopeishere · 28/08/2019 18:15

Xenia?

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 28/08/2019 18:20

Prince Harry allegedly used her loo.

GotToGoMyOwnWay · 28/08/2019 18:26

I can’t remember her username but I don’t think it was Xenia.

GotToGoMyOwnWay · 28/08/2019 18:27

It was quite a few threads back IIRC.

DobbyTheHouseElk · 28/08/2019 18:39

Ah ok, I know. That’s who I thought,

Tablefor4 · 28/08/2019 19:11

Xenia is a tax lawyer with 5 children, an ex-husband and an island. (She's on another forum I'm on).

Stravapalava · 28/08/2019 19:19

Oh my goodness! Imagine! She'd definitely be reading all the threads then.

M and H apparently had Sunday lunch in a pub ! So much for all this privacy they apparently so desperately need.

😂 So they're not allowed out now?! They said they wanted Archie to be a private citizen, not privacy for themselves. They did this by not giving him a royal title that he was entitled to and I guess he will mainly be out of the public eye. They have stuck to this so far.

AudacityOfHope · 28/08/2019 21:02

I'm sorry, why are we offended that some people ate lunch outside their own homes? Confused

BertrandRussell · 28/08/2019 21:08

“I'm sorry, why are we offended that some people ate lunch outside their own homes?

Because it doesn’t fit the narrative we have been sold by the Daily Mail.

AudacityOfHope · 28/08/2019 21:13

Imagine giving any kind of fuck where they eat. And taking offence because 'privacy'.

A lot of people are a whole lot of batshit.

EmGee · 28/08/2019 21:13

I like that they have enjoyed a nice Sunday lunch out in a pub. They must get sick of foie gras and state banquets!

lavenderandthyme · 28/08/2019 21:19

No offence about 'privacy'. It's refreshing to hear. Its just a bit at odds with Elton John's statement about how they needed a private plane for privacy and security reasons, yet they can eat in a pub with other people. That's batshit.

lavenderandthyme · 28/08/2019 21:19

Archie was there too.

BertrandRussell · 28/08/2019 21:20

I do wonder about all sorts of silly practicalities about being royal. How do they pay for a pub lunch- debit card or cash? If cash- where do they get it? Is there a big box of money in their houses that someone keeps topped up?

AppleKatie · 28/08/2019 21:22

I’m sure they have a credit card.

But also that they can send a valet or similar for cash should it be required.
