Like all my family and friends I have no interest in this little family but as with all families I hope they will be happy.
I draw the line at paying my and other people's taxes on security for them.

Ditto Well said 🙂

Apparently they flew from California to Birmingham. Seems sensible to me, the Cotswolds bring less than an hour's drive from BHX.

Yet more publicly for the Daily Mail from those who profess to hate it!

Exactly this.

How do you feel about it?

JenniferEccles Wed 26-Aug-26 16:21:07

How do I feel about folk who claim to hate it yet are always quoting from it, or the paper itself?

I suspect you meant the latter!

Lathyrus3 Wed 26-Aug-26 16:29:07

Oh private jet to Birmingham 👍

That never even occurred to me😬

Just so you know - I despise the DM. I buy the Guardian and the I. I look online at the DM headlines. They are often horrifying, when the revolution comes etc., etc. And today, before Dolly Parton is in her coffin, let alone her grave, the dreaded DM had a headline about her being a lesbian…

You're easily would up!
Who cares what paper you read.
Harry and Meghan news is being reported everywhere!
Saturday's Guardian ran a piece about them on Saturday

MarieElla Wed 26-Aug-26 17:17:24

*wound up!

Iam64 Wed 26-Aug-26 17:20:41

Ladyleftfield lover, fwiw I don’t see you as easiky wound up

I don't know of any direct (nonstop) flights from California to Birmingham. That would be very easy for me when visiting.

Maybe it was a private flight? With the right aircraft you could do that.

I love this:
I don't read the Daily Mail, I just look at it online for the headlines.
Why?
You must absorb the headlines by a process of unconscious assimilation?

fancythat Wed 26-Aug-26 18:00:52

That is reading the DM!

A paper that you say you despise!

MarieElla Wed 26-Aug-26 18:04:48

And now we know about the headline about Dolly Parton...whether it's true or not, thanks to Ladyleftfieldlover
And, so what if she was lesbian?

Oreo Wed 26-Aug-26 18:07:42

I find that people who claim to hate and despise the DM usually know more about what’s in it than anyone else😁

Exactly, not a crime is it!

Why does M always grip hold of Harry?
Is she afraid he’ll escape?!

It’s weird isn’t it? Always a bony hand on him somewhere 😄

Oreo Wed 26-Aug-26 18:38:35

They keep showing scenes on the news that’s Chipping Camden in the Cotswolds so maybe that’s where they are now comfortably ensconced?

MarieElla Wed 26-Aug-26 18:47:17

I'm sure Jeremy and Lisa will be very welcoming.
They may even give Harry a job on the farm!

Meghan will be around in the morning asking Jeremy to stock her jam in the Diddley Squat Farm Shop. grin

Absolutely. Always someone who wants to dish the dirt. Dolly Parton did wonders for children's literacy and so many other charities. Let's remember her for that, eh?
