King Charles coronation

A large number of Scots say they don’t like the UK and don’t want to be part of it, so I can say go, be independent but no cherry picking.

Fair enough, Katie59
Sauce for the goose etc.

However, The English are supposed to maintain a stiff upper lip and say "Jolly good show, whatever you wish, old man, good luck"

The Scots can then take the High Road or the Low Road, whichever they wish.

🙂

And they wonder why we want away... 🤣

Absolutely agree with you Katie59. Independence means exactly that. Sharing a currency? I don't think so, armed forces? ditto, border control? definitely, submarines will be Plymouth or ?, and so it goes on..

It's still rude to point it out whatever the reason.

I wonder what the probability is of mis-spelling the same word the same way in two consecutive posts, inadvertently?

A real spelling mistake or perhaps an inadvertent one? particularly if someone doesn't proof read. We all hit the wrong key sometimes. Either way, it is rude to point it out.

Oh Volver, not guilty though.

Have never said I want to get rid of certain posters and their countrymen.

Probably worse than pointing out spelling mistakes.

I never said it was you. But somebody said it. 😮

Heartbroken, I was. 😉

But most of us don't!

Why you want to leave me?? 😫

That was in reply to volver - What about telling posters you want to get rid of them and their countrymen? Is that OK? Asking for a friend.

If I get a good holiday deal I will be away, but watch it on return.

Quite funny really. Regardless of where you live or where your allegiance lies, who has said anyone has to watch the coronation? Does nobody on GN have an off button? Imagine the saving on electricity.
It would be much cheaper than having to go away somewhere, presumably without wifi so you can’t accidentally catch sight of a news flash or a GN thread.
We will be abroad-booked before the death of HMQE. I’ll be interested to see how much interest there will be.

^When you learn to spell it, you can give me advice about it^.

I’m often tempted to point out the spelling mistakes of others on GN, but apparently that is considered the height of bad form, shaming those not so well educated.

I consider myself suitably chastened.

By inviting them he has put the ‘ball in their court ‘
Not much else he can do. In my opinion he has done the right thing ( as many parents do for their offspring)
In years to come H&M themselves may well be in a similar position.

I presume it will go ahead, all being well, wherever I am or whatever I decide to do.

If a tree falls in the forest, does it make a sound if no-one is there to hear it?

Oh, I should say, for all those who think the Scots hate England. DH and I can't put up with the coronation on TV every minute of the day and night over that weekend in May, so we're booking a remote cottage.

In Northumberland.

All these royal celebrations are giving you and your DH great excuses to go away for holidays volver. Your 3rd holiday recently I believe, now that sounds like a big positive to me! Maybe I should swap sides?

This thread is really quite funny.

50 Shades of Rudeness!

Independance is just that, no hanging on to the coat tails of England, a customs border and visas to visit, you think you can emulate Norway, the best of luck with that.

Och, I know, I'm just petty, but...

Independance Independence.

Katie59 😁😁 👍👍. God save the King. Coronation? Bring it on, gloomy o!d Britain needs cheering up, can't wait to see all the great and the good, the pageantry and crowns.

Yes, they might. Like they did last time.

Not very good at this political debate thing generally, are we? Stating the obvious now, that's a core competence here.

Just saying...........

What, you going to set us all adrift in a wee boat?

Some might vote to stay in the UK 🙂
