Harry and Meghan and the intricacies of the Monarchy

[PelicanPie]

Here's a follow on to the last thread, which was really enjoyable.

Yes to the title from me yolo and I'd love a penguin biscuit now too. Haven't had them since not long after they shrunk. They were so good.

Wars of the Roses - haven't seen that for years.. I used to absolutely love that line where the husband asks the reason the wife is so angry and she says 'Because, when I watch you eat, when I see you asleep, when I look at you lately - I just want to smash your face in'

She says it with such venom, hilarious

Wonder if H&M will get to that stage...

His protection at the time could have been Canadian though as the Canadians were and are still providing security until the 31 March.

HaM had Canadian security AND British security during their time in Canada.

I believe the prank tape is real. I have no issues with a privileged dimwit who has a compunction to tell others how they should live being pranked. I also don't know how legal intervention would stop further tapes being released. I don't believe Russia has a recipricol enforcement of judgments treaty with the UK, but that's just a hunch.

So is the blind saying Meghan leaked & it’s true or Meghan leaked a false rumour. I’m feeling a bit thick today & can’t work it out

Tbh it avoids saying anything definitive about that tiara. The focus is on a certain person being the one who made the rumour public.

Oh yes winterlife, I got caught out by that too - furnishing their igloos

@lizzie1970a I was so angry at the time, but I"m over it now.

Fair point winter I do believe they had/still have British security - from the Met Police? That's very expensive, and hard on those guys and their families back home.

I wonder if trained penguins could do the job instead? They'd have to be the big ones, and possibly distracted with lots of fish...

The person who started the affair rumours is a MM fan. She admitted she started the rumour and leaked it to the press. I can't remember her name, but I don't believe she knows MM personally.

Yes the Penguin Biscuits were great, shame about the shrinking, but then everything's shrunk. If the Hobb Nobs biscuits packet get any smaller they'll run out of character space and have to call them Hobbs.

I have to say that is one Blind Gossip I really hope is just speculation cause that is really nasty if true. Very nasty.

I also don't know how legal intervention would stop further tapes being released. I don't believe Russia has a recipricol enforcement of judgments treaty with the UK, but that's just a hunch

I wondered about that myself, just as I wondered if anything could be done to prevent "royal secrets" being published in America

Unfortunately I know even less of international law than the UK version, but no doubt time will tell

We’ll never know, yolo, TSSOPDNCOppP

First one to work out the initials doesnot W is a penguin bar.

Oh bollocks, win a Penguin bar

Not a HobNob fan (sorry catherine!). Not really a biscuit fan at all actually. Although a chocolate chip cookie is a good one.

But it all makes an excellent distraction from coronavirus, and perhaps, to echo PP, that's the whole point of the RF?

dandy does it involve p-p-p-pick up a penguin? If so you are actually Meghan Markle and I claim my £5 (and my Penguin bar)

You’re warm yolo

p-p-p-P[word]

I have just read that Blind item. It rings true for me too I am afraid. Always thought there was extreme jealousy there. If true, how on earth do they find these things out?

Ok technically two ps
Then a word beginning with P

Penis? Penguin Penis? I dunno, it's been a long day

I can't keep up with these penguin jokes...

rose you need to read back if you have time - the penguin jokes have been excellent! Perfectly positively penguinish even.

Yes, I need to start from the beginning, only had time to skim so far.
By the way, I am a regular poster, just name changed..

I want the pair of them to go away and stop shoving themselves down everyone's throats. I think they are spoilt and hypocritical. They can go and live in some remote bit of Canada for all I care but I absolutely refuse to accept that the British taxpayers should continue to fund a penny of their costs including their security costs.

Yes, it's very indulgent for them to expect the UK taxpayer to pay to the extent that is necessary. A basic framework, yes; to the extent of them gadding about the world, making loads of money, facilitated by the British taxpayer, no.

If the Hobb Nobs biscuits packet get any smaller they'll run out of character space and have to call them Hobbs.

Or Nobs
