So we lost another great one....

[fishwidow]

I saw her once on one of the late night talk shows. She came across as a real dingbat. Claimed she had some type of spirit guide, and then said a bunch of made up words that she said was the language they used.

[mike89]

just seen the Queen of England passed away...   she was 96     

[LPS]

I wondered how bad off she was.  SO now what?  Will someone move up to her spot?   

I will answer that for me.  LOL  Charles becomes King. 

[Dotch]

Bummer. Elizabeth was a huge Corgi fan and had them most of her life. Was thinking of calling her for some pointers. Prince Charles will become king.

Already IS king.  I heard the ascendency is automatic upon the Queen's death.  All the other formal stuff will come later.


(Couldn't resist.    )

[mike89]

seeing her dogs was what got me interested in them too Dotch...   

[LPS]

It could take months for all of the formalities for him to be king.  They Parliament all have to pledge loyalty to him and he has to pledge loyalty to them too among other things.  Just think, Glenn may not know about this until we tell him when he gets back to civilization.   

[mike89]

as old as he is he could be gone by then!!!   

[LPS]

     Find him in the outhouse?      Shadow laying outside. 

[mike89]

I was implying Charles!!!   not Glenn!!   

[Pulleye16]

I never understood why some people were so infatuated with these people. I saw one of the princesses once and thought she was cute…was about as far as I cared to know. 

[LPS]

Mike I thought you meant Glenn and I thought it was funny as heck.  Thanks for that laugh.  LOL   Ya Pull I agree.  Britain spends millions a year to have the pretentious "Royal Family".  I don't really get it but seems fun for them.  It is classy in it's own way but is it really necessary?  That is what takes away from the classiness of it to me but then again, what the heck do I know????

[Steve-o]

I was watching a Netflix documentary on the old castles in England and they gave the warring histories of all the past monarch families and invaders.

Too bad they can't do it like the old days...

Prince Harry could send a squad of commandos to kidnap King Charles and his brother, Prince William, lock them away in one of those towers forever, and declare himself king.    And everyone would have to go along with it until someone could get to Harry.

They spend millions to have a Royal Family and we spend millions keeping currant and former presidents and their family out of jail.
'Bout even I guess.

Nothing against her or her dogs but the whole royalty thing should be in the past, the distant past.

For me it's just like Canada and their Covid policy. Their country, they can do what they want.

[dutchboy]

       You sir, are on the top of your game! 

[mike89]

 

[LPS]

 

[mike89]

[LPS]

Which makes what's her face Queen.   

[glenn57]

  Yea I heard it on the radio today. Not sure how I got involved in this conversation.

Never did understand that over there but never really cared either.

Dotch that was damn funny.

[Jerkbiat]

I see that Loretta Lynn has passed at age 90. RIP! I still like to listen to the old country now and then.

She was one of my Mom's favorites. Think she saw her at the Grand Old Opry when my brother lived in Nashville.
