loraward   10 #27 Posted June 14, 2015 How much does it cost?  All the participants are paid whether they are there or not.  Tickets were sold to watch the event, it will have attracted a huge number of tourists from all over the world, so my guess would be that it made money rather than cost money.

Â A fine nationalized industry it is then. It's nice to see people getting together to celebrate something instead of being sat in front of a computer being miserable.

shanes teeth   10 #29 Posted June 14, 2015 Because then we would be rid of them. I hear that Tampaxman wanted Jimmy to be Harry's Godfather. If we knew the truth about him, he could never be king. Spider letters? They are a distraction. Betty hasn't got much mileage left in her shriveled body and the adulterer Charlie Boy will soon be our ruler. I can't wait.  Whilst I agree with you entirely I don't think a balcony collapse would do away with them all. They never let them all stand on the same balcony at the same time!

Berberis   10 #34 Posted June 14, 2015 (edited) I think leco would wish me dead for not sharing his/her views. There's respect for you.  But you wish the royal family dead don't you? You cant cry foul when others express the same point of view about you after you make such a comment.  Or are you more equal than others?  ---------- Post added 14-06-2015 at 12:47 ----------  For the record wishing death on the royal family is equally childish but automatic respect for them? I think not.  Im sure wishing the death of the head of state is a crime. Edited June 14, 2015 by Berberis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
