Our Queenie has a big birthday coming up (so have I, actually; it's not a big one in my case, but, still, that's one of the many things we have in common, she and I) and the Palace has issued a list of 80 facts about her. Fun ones, strange ones, envious-making ones too, some of them, like she owns all the dolphins and whales that swim in British waters. I'd like that.

Oh, while I'm here, I might as well slap Our Ken again. That man, Ken Livingstone, the Mayor of London, has done it again. He's in China at the moment and he's compared the Tiananmen Square protests, in which thousands were massacred, to the Poll Tax riots in Trafalgar Square, a while back, in which, er..., a few people were manhandled by the police. Unbelievable! Of course, the Chinese won't get to hear what he said, because all mention of Tiananmen is banned from their media.
Lots of slapping needed.

I don't think I dare look at that list. What if I start to care?
ReplyDeleteSlap Ken for me. He disappointed me. He could've done so much good.
Hope no one needs to be slapped for not honouring the BelaBirthDay properly. Will you be issuing the appropriate number of envy inducing facts?
That means it was her whale that came up the Thames, probably.
ReplyDeleteKen *is* a disappointment, isn't he? He seems to have been there ages - when is the next mayoral election?
It's mind-boggling (I wrote mind-blogging... LOL!) list: Some of the facts are supposed to put us off applying for the job, I suspect.
ReplyDeleteHe's such a stupid man!
Hmmm... envy-inducing facts? Can't think of any. Boo. :-(
Yep, L, that poor whale was hers.
He's been there for ever. He was ok-ish when he was head of the GLC - we owe him the London transport zone thing - but it's been downhill all the way since then. He keeps opening his mouth and moronic things come out.
