8am approaches

Commuters are already begining to avoid "London Bridge".

On ice until they need to distract from lockdown 4

Looks like a spiv, in that fucking suit.

David Dickenson lent it to him..

 

[Storm Fox]

Mrs Fox, just told me that her company has ordered packaging for the Platinum Jubilee and hopes she makes it, "It not as though we can spray paint them black"

They've learned well from killing Paul McCartney, taking the lizard queen into the front door of the hospital and a fake human queen emerged at the back

"Elizabeth, who is queen of 15 other realms including Australia, Canada and New Zealand, returned to her desk for work on Thursday afternoon and was undertaking some light duties*, the source said."

Undertaking light duties means interviewing staff and terminating any who suspect the swap

Note the headline mentions she is "in good spirits" after a night in hospital.

Exactly the same was said about Philip after he spent a night in hospital on 16th March, and he was dead within a month:

Prince Philip 'in good spirits' as he shares rare message thanking well-wishers

Prince Philip has left King Edward VII’s Hospital in Marylebone, London, and is back at Windsor Castle with his wife, the Queen

Leaving her realms to her favourite corgi.

God, it must be so embarrassing being Nicholas Wichell

Kind of exciting though, no? You know one day you'll get the call, one of the first to know, rush to Buckingham Palace...

 

[platinumsage]

Is Nicholas Witchell allowed to have blue lights on his car?

 

[brogdale]

"Elizabeth, who is queen of 15 other realms including Australia, Canada and New Zealand, returned to her desk for work on Thursday afternoon and was undertaking some light duties*, the source said."


(*Making a will)

That "desk"; those "light duties".

 

[ska invita]

more light duties: "i can see a very bright light coming towards me - is that normal?"

more light duties: "i can see a very bright light coming towards me - is that normal?"

and mentioning undertaking in the same sentence isn't that considerate either

Note the placement of the word undertaking in that piece you linked to.

They're softening up the nation.

snappy snap.

Not sure that I'm looking forward to the old bat dying. The vile sycophantic outpouring that engulfs the country afterwards will be very hard to live with.

True, but Covid will be over for a long while...we won't have to hear about all those dreary little people dying etc.

it's a small price to pay, it will be worth it

Let's get it done so it doesn't ruin xmas

Wearing a black tie.... just in case she falls off her perch today. Saves him getting changed. Also the 'good spirits' thing is being ramped up to the max in the media. I fear her demise is imminent.

 

[not-bono-ever]

Barbados are kicking HRH out next month I think. She will be surely upset as they wrest control. Another step in the Cliff Richard master plan to take over the world .

 

[steveseagull]

Though to be fair, the Poisoned Carrot only gets wheeled out for stuff like this these days so he might only have one tie

 

[Elpenor]

Witchell doesn’t look long for this world either. Presumably he will go on to be royal correspondent in the afterlife, providing updates beyond the grave

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

The timing could be a thing of beauty; Brenda carks it, her dough spread around her descendants, He Who Cannot Sweat will clearly need a lump as he has 'no discernible income', New York court find against the sweaty paedo and awards Ms Giuffre the fucking lot. Brother Charlie evicts the dirty nonce from Royal Lodge.

In an unrelated movie some years later we see Andy and Sarah sat under a bridge dressed in rags when a mysterious Tajikistani prince dumps a wedge of notes in to his lap...

 

[DownwardDog]

The joy I am going to feel will soon be eclipsed by the continuous need to check the 'Has the King died?" thread.

I reckon there'll be a few entertainingly awkward moments as the outpouring is rather less engulfing than they're trying to whip up tbh.
