Yes please lay off the London Pensions. I have one too and if you bump up the tax to 85% I may be forced to ask Frank for b&b as I will not be able to afford to live here in London. We are not all as fortunate as he is with our large London Pensions.
I think Frank does have a sense of humour and as it stands it's just a light hearted response to his curmudgeonly (Spelling) reception of the royal birth and his starting numerous threads to repeat the same opinion.
It is tempting, isn't it? But I remember something a while back along slightly similar lines and it did not go down at all well!
It all depends if Frank has a sense of humour, and of course if it is intended in a light hearted way, rather then hurtful. I think on reflection it's best left.
More like a lot of naughty fourth formers than respectable grans Oh phoenix don't tempt me - Tums and bums to be renamed Buttocks and Bellies. I do like the idea of compulsory celebration
We could go mad and start loads, such as "Local Councils to charge more for leisure centre facilities" , "dog licences to be brought back at a charge of £200" "Government decides that there will be a compulsory day of celebration, with mandatory bunting, heavy fines for non participants"
