Oh dear Harry and Meghan

Auld Lizzie was a bit of a lush I've heard and she treated the treasury as her personal bank account ,they kept that quiet until she had popped her clogs....couldn't let the peasants know she was using taxes for betting on horses !!
Her family seemed to have followed in her footsteps where the cash is concerned ...Hundreds of millions a year some supposedly for the upkeep of the roayal palaces.That'll be the royal palaces that the taxpayer is now being asked for more money to refurbish.So where HAS the money gone ? Overseas no doubt ,where we cant get it back from .

Best leave it at that then and agree to differ.

No, it rained

Didn’t we have a lovely trip the day we went to Bangor ?

Oh dear.

Oh here we go, bring out the hate word, pathetic, one can
like and dislike, well I can.

They don't live off the countries taxes. ,surely you don't believe all the myths you read!!!

GagaJo one accepts there are people with very different values.

3, Gaga, don't forget a person who is dead but is still hated, Diana.

No the banana thing and the whingeing things are replies in the negative, a positive would be something along the lines of She achieved...She changed....She championed.....

I see absolutely no signs of trisher being obsessed by virginity.

Not sure WHY you're still on here if you're so easily offended Anniebach. GN is by far the most offensive site I'm on. My FB/Wechat friends are positively aristocratic in comparison.

All this sycophantic adoration of a family that live off the countries taxes is pathetic. All the hate directed at 2 members (that NONE of you know on a personal level) who want to move away and live more independently is ridiculous.

The only value of this obsession is as a distraction from the real danger we are all facing at the moment.

You are obsessed with virginity trisher , still interested in the thread though

Hitler called the then Queen Elizabeth the most dangerous woman in a Europe. She certainly knew how to be the power behind the throne.

Family is important, very important. So wrong to dismiss it .

Not to mention stopping him marrying the woman he loved and delivering him a virgin bride, and look how that turned out!

Yes I know and I think not writing on bananas and not whinging in public are just two things she did

I dare say the lady wasn't all bad, I didn't say that. Do you really swallow hook line and sinker, the propaganda?

Tell me one useful thing she ever did away from family.

Charles adored his Grandmother, she must have been a gentle,
caring woman to give a little boy much love , support and
understanding.

I didn't ask what did she NOT do?

Well, she didn’t write on bananas and she didn’t complain
publicly.

She gave us our much loved Queen. She supported her somewhat nervous, stuttering, slightly inadequate husband during those first difficult days of kingship,giving him the confidence to fulfill the unwelcome burden that his brother bestowed on him particularly in wartime. Without her he could have been a disaster king. She was a much loved and supportive grandmother to Prince Charles through his troubled childhood. She wasn't all bad!

Just remind me again, what was the contribution of the QM to anything, ever?

How is " get a grip " vulgar?

It was me! What I said was that the Queen Mother would probably have disliked MM for her conduct not colour, and that as an actress of trashy soaps and game shows, she would have thought them and her vulgar, as I think a lady of her era of any class almost certainly would!

GagaJo please do not tell me to ‘get a grip’, , it’s so vulgar and I dislike vulgarity.
