So many particulars. So many questions.
straight down cash converters.Reminds me, around the silver jubilee (77?) my mum and dad drove to some beauty spot as the car next to them drove off. Turned out the bloke had left his wallet on the roof and it fell off as they drove away. Mum and Dad picked up his wallet and found it had a couple of hundred quid in it, several hundred at today's prices. Honest citizens as the were, they found a business card in it and contacted him. The bloke was delighted and said he would drive over to give them a reward, which they thought would be cash. So he came over - a drive of about 100 miles iirc - to give them.... a silver jubilee plate.Gritted teeth, 'yeah, thanks'.

In My Defence I was left Unsupervised
When my Gran died, my Mum assigned me and my brother to go through her house and see if there was anything worth taking before the house clearout company came and hauled the bulk of it away. We found loads of this tat, we even found some dating back from the coronation making it even older than my brother or me.Reminds me, around the silver jubilee (77?) my mum and dad drove to some beauty spot as the car next to them drove off.

We did joke that we should all draw straws and the loser got to keep it but we just left it for the house clearers, I suspect as the old lady market dies off there will be less and less demand for this crap.

Last nights “living with the tribe” BBC2 is a good counterpoint to royal gives birth
Wife of tribesman put in separate shelter away from the village, gives birth alone, no one noticed, cut umbilical with some sort of rudimentary sharp instrument.
Naive but well meaning anthropologist returns two months later “how’s the baby” “it had the shits for three days and died” “oh”

It's only a guess, but I reckon this fella might be the one on the radio earlier who stated, "St George would be so proud!"

i think we'd all like to see them wandering the streets of moscow and st petersburg during the world cup.Anyway, its always a sad day when you discover you've been pushed further back in the line of succession. I might have to see if the Belgians want a new king.Which one gets the most world cup tickets?

man i used to know worked in windsor in the 50s, when it was apparently common knowledge that all the presents sent to prince charles went straight in the landfill. i doubt things were different for gifts to anne, andrew or edward.

Someone has already updated the Wikipedia page to slot Prince Unnamed in at No 5 pushing the rest down a place. Liz's brood fill up slots 1-18 then her cousins (her Dad had 2 younger brothers) pack it out to 57 so we've plenty of spares.Anyway, its always a sad day when you discover you've been pushed further back in the line of succession.

it doesn't matter what's in the tins as long as they're full when you fling them at the hapless royals.
