She’ll be all over US TV blarting on about how she wasn’t told immediately and that Harry was ignored blah blah
No surprise - he looked bloody awful when he came out of hospital
Are the flags at half-caste? RIP to the loveable old racist.

Corrected for you
Re the Fail / his gaffes. Just seen a former aide on the news who said that Phillip was at the Emirates once and turned to ask a young supporter which name was it, on the Arse’s shirts (it was JVC at that time).
The media reported it as another gaffe: “HRH doesn’t know who JVC are!” the headlines screamed.
No, the aide said, he was just making smalltalk.

TIP to a true Eaints fan

Facebook is already a wailing wall. It’s going to be all over everything for a bit.
On the plus side, it’s the end to the fake announcements of Prince Philip’s death.

Always sad to lose a good comedian, RIP. My favourite was when talking to a Scottish driving instructor “How do you keep the natives off the booze long enough for them to pass the test?”

And to the President of Nigeria who was dressed in his traditional robes - “You look like you are ready for bed!”
This is good… I have been anxiously anticipating the national collective outpouring of grief for this old cunt who none of us knew, or would have given any of us the time day… I don’t wish to belittle the obvious grief of his family, but its the ridiculous ‘national’ bollocks that makes me pretty sick really… where is the outpouring of national grief to the 130,000 Covid Victims… with a death rate from COVID at 190 per 100,000, its the highest globally…
True story. For decades, the Republic of Ireland did not have a driving test. They’d just let people drive away there. There have a test now, but the people who’d driven before were just grandfathered in.
Another true story. When I worked in Happy Shopper, better known as Budgens on St. Mary’s St, people would turn up at 7am sharp to get their Special Brew in. One of them turns up in a motor. My supervisor says “I hope you’re not going to drink and drive”.
“Nope”, he says. “I’m going to drive and drink”.
My supervisor was not comforted by his response.

Yeah, but equally, I feel the bile is unnecessary.
I don’t want a royal family selected the way it is. I’d much sooner it were the apex of the honours system, not the apex of the class system.
That was the case here too, wasn’t it? I’m pretty sure my grandfather never had to take a test, and I also remember him saying that back in the day you just bought a car and drove it away. No licence required.
Yeah but nobody’s got a pic of the body…and as we all know, “no pictures, it didn’t happen”

Ireland also used to have no vehicle test like our MOT. When I first went to Co. Galway in the mid 80s there were cars with big holes in their bodywork on the road.

Even Plant Rock has changed their programming 
And Radio1… 
What 'Bile? - I have the same attitude towards him in death as in life… my ‘bile’ is more for the sycophantic arselicking ‘grief’ we are now hearing about personified by the BBC and the flower leavers at Windsor…
Not necessarily you. Lot of tasteless stuff flying about social media today.
