Prince Andrew

[mudsticks]

My cousin flew Helicopters alongside Prince Andrew...I've dissociated myself from him of course.....

That's a bit harsh..

Unless of course he was of the same 'sort'..

 

[Rusty Nails]

And I'm pretty sure Camilla was never accused of any crimes, or of associating with known sex offenders (Andrew perhaps being an exception?)

So hardly a fair comparison.

Of course you don't need to do very much at all to get on the wrong side of the 'royalty loving' British public if you happen to be female.

Just refuse to be a properly demure English rose

She did something far, far worse than Andrew in the eyes of many.

She robbed The People's Princess of her Prince Charming and tore apart the fairy tale couple. I'm not sure a male could have done that, but then again you never know .

Of course the real problems of the Royal Family are all caused by women, just look at Fergie, Camilla and Meghan, nothing to do with their innocent men. Cherchez la femme.

Oh I know, behind every poor innocent bumbling chap, there's a scheming vixen up to no good, mark my words...

I liked this the other day though .

Not really, but he was from Chard....and I've not spoken to him for probably 50 years!

Chard is one of those places.

Has anyone yet pointed out that it is traditional to have at least one appallingly behaved prince in each generation of the royal family?

Chard..
Like Tiverton .

Occasionally you're forced to go through it..

But rarely feel the need to stop .

Had a rather bizarre encounter (in Tivvy) with a guy, when i stopped to ask directions - the sustrans route signage was obscured..

But a story for another day..
Or praps better not.
We don't want to be reinforcing stereotypes..

When house hunting there were many appealing properties that Wimpers found in Tivvy, thankfully I was on hand to put her on the right track....

I do aim to cycle there from Kirton sometime over them gert big 'ills.....

You'll have done your Crediton 'dental floss' market research already I assume ,??

Yep, I'm movin' to Kirton soon
Just to raise me up a crop of
Dental Floss
Raisin' it up
Waxen it down
In a little white box
I can sell uptown
By myself I wouldn't
Have no boss,
But I'd be raisin' my lonely
Dental Floss
Raisin' my lonely
Dental Floss
Well I just might grow me some bees
But I'd leave the sweet stuff
To somebody else . . . but then, on the other hand I would
Keep the wax
N' melt it down
Pluck some Floss
N' swish it aroun'
I'd have me a crop
An' it'd be on top (that's why I'm movin' to Devonshire)
Movin' to Kirton soon
Gonna be a Dental Floss tycoon (yes I am)
Movin' to Kirton soon
Gonna be a mennil-toss flykune
I'm gonna find me a horse
Just about this big
An' ride him all along the border line
With a
Pair of heavy-duty
Zircon-encrusted tweezers in my hand
Every other wrangler would say
I was mighty grand
By myself I wouldn't
Have no boss
But I'd be raisin' my lonely
Dental Floss
Raisin' my lonely
Dental Floss
Raisin' my lonely
Dental Floss
Well I might
Ride along the border
With my tweezers gleamin'
In the moon-lighty night
And then I'd
Get a cuppa cawfee
N' give my foot a push . . .
Just me 'n the pygmy pony
Over the Dennil Floss Bush
N' then I might just
Jump back on
An' ride
Like a cowboy
Into the dawn to Kirton
Movin' to Kirton soon
(Yippy-Ty-O-Ty-Ay)
Movin' to Kirton soon
(Yippy-Ty-O-Ty-Ay)
Movin' to Kirton soon
(Yippy-Ty-O-Ty-Ay)
Movin' to Kirton soon

Well jolly good luck with all that..

I'm sure there's a market for home grown , organic fair trade floss up thar.

Meanwhile, the numbers for homemade pizza seem scant to have diminished.

Despite the onslaughting zephyrs..
Some partakers of such ,even arriving just lately from Brizxle

So having spent half the morning chasing stuff about the farm .

And witnessed a three tonne chicken house blown off of its usual mooring.

I still seem to be on Friday dinner duty..

So best crack on I guess .

Prince Andrew is clearly a creepy knobber, but I find myself thinking along the lines of "let he who is without creepy knobbery cast the first stone".
Have any of us a sexual history that isn't without shameful episodes that we regret and wish we could atone for? Are we all confident we're on the side of the angels?
On a continuum between, say, on the one hand Weinstein, Andrew and Epstein and on the other welsh Martin Sheen, Thich Nhat Hahn and David Attenborough, where would you position yourself?

As far as I can remember I'm pretty sure I didn't knowingly have many sex offenders as besties.
I might have said "I love you" especially after Cider a little to often to be true.But I reckon that's about it.
I'd be willing to say sorry to the two girls I lied to 🙄

It is not just "great" men, it is all men, being "in the way" is a skill acquired at birth, by the male of the species. I am very adept at it, I can be "in the way" in just about any setting, (eg supermarket, living room, footpath, ......... the list goes on), without even trying.

Do you actually believe this sort of utter cobblers, or does it just amuse you in some way to pretend you do?
