This is all very well Cath. But I remember the Sunday papers on the 31st August 1997. All the front pages and the inside ”news” pages were full of the fact that she was dead and all were full of ”a nation mourns” stuff.

Problem is that all the editorial pages indside had been written during the week and couldn’t be re-written in the short…[Read more]

Cath – bless your little charitable heart hun. But sadly I fear that your kindness is misplaced.

I can think of no single country in the entire African continent where corruption isn’t a daily way of life. For them it is a normal as it is for us to make a cup of tea. Giving them money to ”help feed the poor” is simply an utter waste of time and…[Read more]

It must have taken her ages to type that lot as well :lol: :lol: :lol:

I did rather didn’t I?

As far as I know Charlie had a mistress on tap as well PB. It wasnt as if she was alone in doing that.

Yes apparently he did…. but at least he was reasonably discreet about it.

The whole “she wasn’t fit for her position” thing is just about guilt for losing an empire. :lol:

Oh she was ”fit for her position” alright. Problem is that the position in question was underneath most of the Household Cavalry.

I think the Royal Family would have been far better for her being Queen.

Yes sure…. can you just imagine the ceremony of Trooping the Colour??? As the Household Cavalry rides past Queen Diana they swap notes about how many of the officers rode her last week and whether she was as good as Doris the barmaid down the Coach &…[Read more]

Oh Gawd Tommy – don’t start that one ffs. He’ll go on and on back in time and history until he ”proves” that the Palestinians got there first – and anyway their human rights have been eroded etc etc.

If memory serves he has gone back to 2000 BC so far !!!

There’s a very simple answer to someone who wants to bully you. A good solid smack in the mouth may offend…… but it sure makes your point clear !!!!!

Do you suppose that Mr B is a Palestinian??? He sure seems to take their side on just about everything. Maybe we should make him ”kick like a kipper” for sympathising with terrorists.

Well, she wasn’t COMMON after all. :lol:

But seriously, she WAS a human being. She had motives and drives the same as the rest of us. She might have been misguided at times but she tried to do right. If I can say that on my deathbed, I’ll be happy.

Fascist!

Hmmmmm !!! Emmas favourite ”F” word eh???

I find it extremely offensive!! (does that mean PB has to get rid of the pic?)

Only if it’s pig’s blood – to avoid offending Muslims or Jews you understand.

In which case I stand (or twitch) corrected – ”kick like kippers” it is then.

Well at least i haven’t advocated hanging them ’til they twitched like kippers.

(BTW… do kippers twitch????)

Maybe you should just keep your money in your own pocket. Giving it to an African charity is supporting theft and gross corruption – it will only line the pockets of some corrupt tin pot dictator anyway.

What’s the point….. what they don’t take, they steal. In a very short while they’ll all be dead from AIDS anyway.

………………so what a wonderful legacy she left to us all……..

Yes didn’t she? Refresh my memory, wasn’t she the woman who slept around with a cavalty officer here and there, the occasional pop star and of course half the English rugby team???

Didn’t she end up shagging Dodi Fayed round the Mediterranean (amongst…[Read more]

Jenny, there are two other tacks you can take.

Firstly you can write to the Editor of the papers concerned and invite them to print a correction / retraction of their story. They will undoubtedly refuse to do this as since when did the Media allow the facts to get in the way of a good story??? However, by offering them an opportunity to correct…[Read more]
