Queen Elizabeth II

[mat]

Watching the news last night.Even Mike Tindall has a chest full of medals,it really is quite pathetic how the royals bestow honours upon each other.Fucking Edward looks like he’s fought in every conflict since the napoleonic wars with all the shit on his chest including his it’s a knockout winner’s medal

If I was given a medal for ploughing Zara I'd take it.

I am not a royalist or a non royalist, but as others have said I do find all the medals they wear odd. Edward was in the marines for about 4 months ! How did he get any medals ?.

People were querying Mike Tindall’s medals. One was an MBE which is fair enough. The other two were a Diamond Jubillee and a Platinum Jubilee medals, which he qualified for by being part of the royal household.

It’s not something I really give a shit about but it seems to devalue medals actually earned when you qualify for them simply by banging someone related to the Queen. I mean, it’s a good story to tell your mates down the boozer but you’d hardly class it as an achievement worthy of a medal. On the other hand, some of the horrors I accidentally ended up entertaining in my younger days, should qualify me for a Victoria Cross.

So does this mean all of williams concubines get a medal for buggering him with a strap on, as technically it is a royal duty

I wonder which member of the PR team happened to let the BBC know Team Beckham was there...?

It's got him the publicity he wanted in a week the media has been dominated by mourning the former monarch.

He's a ****.

So sort of like at infants school you get a 'medal' for not being later for a term

I was just going to post similar. Think I would queue 12 hours for her :-)

 

[Citizen of Legoland]

I suspect the medals are ceremonial shit like knight of the royal garter of Lego land and similar ridiculous things that you and I would be embarrassed to wear in public

Your point being?

I'd call making love to her Excalibur. Who ever managed to pull me out should be the rightful king of England.

I watched the feed yesterday

Around 36 people a minute were passing the coffin.

That means that around 2160 people an hour are passing.

So a queue of 24 hours means that there is approximately 51580 currently queuing.

(I watched for two minutes and took an average, it might have been a slow time of day [around 3pm])

The queue pauses every 20 minutes to change the guard.

I’m surprised that anyone could be surprised that the coffin might have been empty.

If a corpse isn’t kept on ice it ballon’s up with expanding gasses, generally rots and stinks to high heavens.
If anyone doesn’t believe that then they should throw a fresh chicken into the boot of their car and leave it there for a week.

Empty coffin / corpse on ice. It would be indecent to do otherwise.
What’s not to know about that?

stop being fucking offensive , you are talking bollocks
