    Woah! That's English for 'stop a horse!'

    greatest forum signature EVER.

    Thanks sings, nicked it from Alan Partridge, surely the wisest/ stupidist of all Norwich's great sages.

  • But the elected Heads of State get the power to do things, invade various foreign countries for example, our unelected ones don't.
    See the difference?

    I'm not sure I do. Are you saying that not having a great deal of practical power is a reason for or against an elected head of state? Still, at least having an unelected head of state prevented Britain from getting involved in the Iraq fiasco eh?

    There are others? I mean, aside from Dan Moody, who owns Kitchen Planet, off the A416?


    Worth a read:

    Surely the correct term is towelhead.

    The Prince of Wales has been calling an Asian friend "Sooty" for years.
    i have been affectionately calling people "n1gg@A, w0g, p@ddy" etc for years also and i still have my own teeth!

    In so saying it is obvious you are very selective about where you say it.

    I should point out that while the Royal Family does cost us 69p each (approx.) they generate a huge amount of buisness for this country. Those state visits to other countries aren't just to say hello you know or are we forgetting that it is the government who sets these visits up?

    Not only that but they generate awareness of local and national issues wherever they go, be it charity work, trade or industry. I think that that is worth 69p.

    As such, Prince Harry should be more aware of the potential ramifications of his actions. Nobody is perfect and he apologised quickly, even though it doesn't make it right.

    How can that be offensive, seriously? Old Charlie is a proper berk but I'm sure folk have more to worry about (awaits backlash).

    Might have something to do with what he called him?

    Don't make out you're naive. Say what you actually think.

    Then you can get the blacklash you probably want and probably deserve. :)
    Note: the above post is an opinion and not fact. It might be a lie.
