Basic rule for the Royal Family: DO NOT MARRY AMERICAN DIVORCEES.

This one was so clearly a nightmare. I hope Her Majesty kneecaps the ****s.

One suspects they will end up disappointed, baleful and bitter, like poor old Edward.

I agree. Although I would remind you that 'poor old Edward' was a Nazi-sympathising c@nt and very probably a traitor.

He always comes across as such a pathetically miserable creature though; it quite makes one pity the fellow.

Reading about British HiSo on the riviera in the '30s and post-war. The pair of them always hanging around like a bad smell, imposing themselves on (often reluctant) hosts, taking issue at the tiniest perceived slight, desperate to be the centre of attention and madly determined to hold onto the royal status and respect they were no longer due.

Ghastly people. Sad and miserable, nonetheless.

tbf he's hardly going to get promotion and she's well worth a tap

Misery is the proper condition for one who shirks his Holy duty as King, I'm afraid.

[Sir C]

There is nothing 'holy' about the British monarchy, b. Not since the heretic Henry Vlll broke with Mother Church.

Have you read the Cazalet Chronicles, btw? The glw strong-armed me into them. They're extremely girly and rather good.

Oooh, no. I've had a look and I'm sure they're very good if you like Daphne Du Maurier, Georgette Heyer and whatnot, but pas pour moi, Clive.

Exactly! They have that du Maurier feel about them, but also echoes of wossname, Camomile Lawn. :cloud9:

I listened to a Georgette Heyer on a road trip a couple of years ago. It was a rollicking good yarn! No bodices got ripped, sadly.

Camomile Lawn was great - it had Tara Fitzgerald and Jennifer Ehle in the nip - proper TV

fire and grab an old Sven Hassel c. Allow the jackboot of manly fascism to kick that foppish tendency out of you. Start with Liquidate Paris. Remind yourself how real men conduct themselves.

:hehe: I still feel like I'm mates with The Old Man, Tiny, Porta and the Legionnaire. Julius Heide, not so much.

I'm pretty sure that at some point the Legionnaire stopped being Muslim for a while and became a Buddhist. Also he had a peculiarly on/off relationship with booze.

Talking of which, this BBC production of the Profumo scandal story features some rather top totty all nudified. Also stockings and spendies.

Back in 5.

What can I say? I have eclectic tastes.

I'm listening to the latest Le Carré. The man is now a tiresomely leftist bore. :-(

Oo - was reading about that this morning. Interview with Keeler's son in The Times was very interesting

2 non-shapeshifting, lizards innit. She's a human furriner and he's a Spencer / Hewitt.

He's been rejected by the reptiles cos he wouldn't cross breed, imo.

Is this the one where he starts banging on about how terrible Brexit is via his fictional proxy? Fúck that. I must admit I read a precis of it and binned any thought of getting it.

[Sir C]

Oh yes, there's Brexit and there's Trump.

Daft old bugger. George would have told him to man up and get on with it.

I wouldn't like to be Christine Keeler's son. I mean, she was a lady of negotiable virtue and all that, but even when not being paid, she appears to have been exceedingly free with her favours. :-(

Yes, school must have been tricky for the poor chap. Can't be easy if your mum actually is a slag.

Was the Legionnaire the one whose tackle had been shot off in an earlier campaign?

Every man with a little spirit and adventure has, at some time in their life, befriended a Tiny. You quickly realize that he is so out of your league when it comes to brawing and boozing that you will soon end up disappointing him so best to extricate yourself from the friendship before you get seriously injured.

Do these people ever stop to consider just how drearily conservative these maunderings are? In essence, they are no different to previous generations bemoaning unwelcome societal change in everything from votes for women to the end of the death penalty and the legalisation of homosexuality. Things change - deal with it.

I believe his 'nads were sliced off by some bedouins.

Remember when Tiny got married? While they were convalescing ina Hamburg hospital? :hehe: She was a huge lump.

You never read the Sven Hassels, did you?

I don't believe there is any way to come to them as an adult, sadly. They need to be imbibed in childhood, and then they may be sipped at from time to time in adulthood.

Sadly not. I had no interest in reading about the baddies.

Adolescence more than childhood.

Adolescence more than childhood.

Not the sort of distinction one would care to try and explain to a judge, h. :-\

He does actually say in the interview that the boys at his school were quite understanding. Probably just wanted a go on his mum tbf

[Alberto Balsam Rodriguez]

tbf he's hardly going to get promotion and she's well worth a tap


If anything, his corporate grade is being eroded on an almost annual basis.

It was a boarding school. I just reckon they like the idea of sexy totty dropping their knickers for ugly public school boys. Something I support myself.
