Talking of crumbles - I have just done a raid on my neighbour's rhubarb patch - guess what tonight's pudding will be - with lots of ice cream!

Every country has a head of state. Which would you prefer...
Charles III followed by William V
Or
Putin  followed by economic collapse?

Of course we may be getting
Charles III followed by economic collapse but that won't be the fault of Charles it will be the fault of the voters with short memories or perhaps believing socialism may work if tried again.

£132m odd. That's about two quid per head of the population. Personally I regard that as pretty good value.

Quote from: ansu on Yesterday at 03:18:49 PMA very interesting discussion. However, maybe a bit one-sided as we say. We don't have any Royals, however, our "fomer" royals (the Hohenzollern) have enormous land and property, too, and managing this keeps them quite busy.
Royals are a luxury and rather expensive and I always had the impression that you are very proud of them and enjoy all that pomp and parades and don't want to miss it.


We don't actually need royals to have pomp and parades .

 to be ill and on benefits. 

As for Harry's children, they are no more "brats" than Williams.



He held down a job as a search and rescue helicopter pilot for some years.

Quote from: Mups on Yesterday at 06:36:23 PMYes, I agree Ruthio.
I'd love to know how it got that name in the first place though?
Perhaps someone called Richard invented the recipe.
