Edward and Sophie should be involved with The Queens Canopy

What on earth is the queens canopy?? Or should it be canapé ??

*I use initials a lot when posting. There really is nothing wrong with that at all*.

Yes there is because they obscure meaning. I wasted time discovering TAAT meant 'thread about another thread'. Really?
Now I don't bother if the meaning isn't immediately clear.

I was talking about initials of people not acronyms. TAAT is well known on GN - it should be, there’s a lot of it about ?

This thread is turning into a delightful collection of non sequiturs ?

Well we all know what happened to Marie and Louis?

I've called him Borrie before now, perhaps I'd better stop.
It seemed to go with Carrie ........

Slapped wrist for me too.

Borrie?

It's all their business anyway. We're not affected. I am glad meghan's off the scene. Edward and Sophie would do a better job any day. And of course the wonderful Princess Anne

Good to know Suzie

I use initials a lot when posting. There really is nothing wrong with that at all. They are not nicknames. I would never be posting about a blow job which term I find cringey but if ( unlikely) I posted on this topic on GN I would say oral sex. I think Carrie Antoinette is very amusing and accurate term to use

Precisely Callistemon, I know what I mean and others can think what they like.

Oh! I just looked it up.
I didn't realise but it makes no difference - people using his initials know who they mean. If others want to put a different interpretation on it then that is their mind.

ABdePJ?
Bit of a mouthful

Callistemon I didn’t either, but when I saw the comment about it I looked up the initials and it does stand for something that’s really not appropriate at all. I’m still learning.

Casdon

Oh gosh, I said BJ earlier, I didn’t realise it was slang for anything other than an abbreviation of his initials. I just looked it up. I don’t like him, but I won’t use that abbreviation again - apologies, I agree that’s out of order.

Why? I don't understand it

Eh up Rosie51, don’t be bringing a bit of sense into any discussion about William and Harry. Steady On, or you’ll be suggesting a bit of sympathy for both these brothers may be the best approach.

Dunna be daft, duck

Oops, sorry

That is speciesist, Anniebach, on both you and Donald.

As is the nickname for Omid Scobie

Is he a Great Dane? No. Should a Great Dane be offended when he is nothing like Omid Scobie who is a journalist?

Too right Scoobydoo should - which self- respecting Great Dane would want to be likened to a journalist who writes such shallow rubbish?

I have a well developed sense of humour, but I find that comment offensive. “Off the cuff” comments can often contain inappropriateness. Or, is it ok, for instance, to say about someone, “ Oh, he’s just a bit daft”?

Yes, probably, although that is possibly sexist as females can be a bit daft too
In fact, I'm sure Anniebach might not mind me saying that she was a bit daft to post what she did about clocking Harry one.

Slapped wrist, Anniebach, you knew you'd get into trouble.

Very good Bridgeit.

Why did you quote my post that was about Oprah and then comment about posters being "exceedingly judgemental of said Harry" Luca; I didn't mention him in that particular post?

How on earth can you see anything racist in a poster giving Omid Scobie the nick name Scoobydoo Alegrias or are you desperately trying to find a reason to get this thread shut down, as others have been by making false allegations of racism?

I agree lemongrove if there are some who find anything associated with H & M or the RF so boring, why not leave those of us who do want to discuss it in peace to do so.

Hi. I was quoting the “maybe you could be less judgmental bit, that’s all.

I myself wouldn't have referred to Omid Scobie at all, under any name or nickname, and couldn't see any connection with Scoobie-doo, apart from the similarity of Scobie and Scoobie. However, on doing a bit of research on Scoobie-doo, I found out that In 2002, . . Scooby-Doo returned to Saturday morning for the first time in 17 years with "What's New, Scooby-Doo?" Perhaps the link is that Mr Scobie is writing about "What's new" in the Harry/Megan saga? I still don't see any racism, except the unrelated fact that he has an Iranian mother.

THREAD TITLE WAS ;Wills and Harry rift blown out of proportion (

a dead and buried thread now it seems. as an acutely argumentative bad mannered thread has appeared.
should be remembered that you wouldn't give each other time of day if you met in real life so get over yourselves and go and cool off.

Exactly lemsip. I tried to talk about William and Harry at 7.40, 7.44, 12.44, 14.06 as did a few other posters. However, some so called "disinterested" posters want to derail the thread and come up with the derogatory, bad mannered remarks you mention.
I am very cool here today, quite a breeze on the coast.
