Indifference to PoW?

I find it strange that there’s no real interest or concern from the public about POW being in hospital. Nobody seems to be that bothered. If you compare it to the circus if Diana had been in the same situation….. I just find it odd. I always thought she was relatively popular because we’re constantly told she is but actually…. Tumbleweed.

I know it’s her own business etc but it just feels quite odd that somebody can disappear and there is no interest in why. I don’t really know or care what’s happened or why, but the silence is really intriguing. It reminds me of when the brexit referendum happened and I had no idea that there was such strong feeling about the EU…. I had no idea that there was such apathy about the PoW until now. It’s been a real eye opener for me.

I reckon the next generation or two, the monarchy will be gone.

That beef cheek has been on the go for about 4 hours now.

I hate to toot my own flute but it is bloody lovely.

Sadly my mam is the kimchi lover - I can only have about a fork prong at a time.

Kimchi is big atm. good PR

I’m not sure I’ve tried it though

Well @Mymilkshakebringsallthepapstomycar , I'm not one for gossip 😉😉 but just between you and I ..... the relationship with Shawn is of a biblical nature ( if you know what I mean!!)
And of course manchego is a go ! But it's got to be a duchy cracker obviously!

Sounds bloody lovely, I want some. Your kimchi aversion betrays your political affiliations though. Your mum is ok, when the republic happens she will be spared. They will throw you in the clink with Charles and a large wheel of extra mature cheddar.

I’m afraid my pies and my mash are the only things worth tooting over.

And the dog. Big toot there.

Even though she can often be the clartiest moch in Christendom

It’s fermented veg. It’s a form of culinary self flagellation for all the cheese and mini eggs I am consuming at the moment. Good for the gut, so-so on the tastebuds. Well trendy though, I am down with the youth and extremely regular.

ArcaneWireless · 05/02/2024 17:24

I’ll be fine in the clink. Need some ritz crackers for the cheese though - don’t judge!

Just don’t put me in with Wee Nippy.

That’s be malkie territory…

Typical, exploitation of innocent young sheep and making biscuit money on the side. Degenerate.

Are we really surprised @Mymilkshakebringsallthepapstomycar !
It's the nature of the royal family after all !
With the advent of social media they can no longer pull the wool( 😉) over our eyes!
Carrot munching! , animal experiments! Alcohol fuelled cars! , cheese orgies !
Secret wererabbits the lot of them !
The time will come!

Maireas · 05/02/2024 17:35

Camilla and her rescue dogs? She makes them into pies.

No judgement here, ritz crackers are lovely with a bit of cheese. The perverts in my family dip them in humous, but we don’t talk to them anymore. One day I will write a tell all book about where they dip their crackers.

I’ve got my pitchfork ready, Jeff!

wildernesssw · 05/02/2024 17:41

I have a confession. I was going to have my Danish Blue with crackers earlier, but then I realised I had some hummus to use up, and had that instead...

And presumably, Scandinavian monarchy being so much better than ours, their cheese is as well?

But then Philip was originally a member of the Danish RF (as well as the Greek), and he was a baddie.

I don't know whether I'm coming or going...

Samcro · 05/02/2024 17:42

I’m going to say something terrible 😞
I don’t like uncooked cheese 🧀

wildernesssw · 05/02/2024 17:43

@Samcro 😮

Dante had a special circle of Hell for people who don't like uncooked cheese 😧

Samcro · 05/02/2024 17:45

It’s the texture

I'm shocked 😮, shocked ! I tell you!
Never have I heard such a thing!
And announced so nonchalantly too!
For shame samcro , for shame!

<Faints. Reaches for smelling salts> Can the King still send people to The Tower? Surely this is some sort of treason?

ArcaneWireless · 05/02/2024 17:50

You’ll be in the circle with my cousin for they don’t do cold cheese either.

I can’t eat cooked neeps but will happily horse it raw.

With hummus 🤣.

I haven’t had tahini dip for ages thinking about it. That’ll be shoved on stovies tomorrow.

I miss it.

Maireas · 05/02/2024 17:51

Even worse, @wildernesssw - Philip wasn't even Greek! He was German -Danish.
Schleswig - Holstein - Sonderberg - Gluckstein. No, not stops on a German railway timetable, his actual name! He wasn't even a "Mountbatten".

ArcaneWireless · 05/02/2024 18:01

The poor King 😢

Roussette · 05/02/2024 18:02

Oh dear... I wouldn't wish this on anyone. Charles has been diagnosed with cancer.

He will get the best treatment imaginable but still... it's a dreadful thing to have happened.

I am sure there are many posters on here who have been affected by the dreadful disease, just awful.

Yes poor guy. Waited so long to be King then has had health scares already.

Samcro · 05/02/2024 18:08

Awful news. Hope he is ok
