Who stands in a queue anymore, for anything? I didnt catch the name on LBC but someone saying it was their biggest pre-order for years. Not that I care btw Absolutely, most folks will probably just have ordered it online, It'll be an international best seller, sell by the truck load and make the publishers a bucket load of money, I have no doubts about that.

Y'know, the ones who were crying when Lizzy Saxe-Coburg died. I'd have thought it would be the special firelighter edition for the diehard royalists, don't think they are too keen on this book.

Which made the Sky News report from outside one branch of Waterstones in London all the stranger, especially when they reported that there was one person in the queue and that there were more media present than customers. Who knows Sky might have driven around looking for the smallest queue they could find, or it might simply have been that most people ordered the book online and will get it delivered today or will collect it at their leisure throughout the day.

That thing you do Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Ive officially tipped over from keep this going it will be a laugh watching the Royals being dragged into the gutter into FFS just stop going on about it, sadly just as Harold went on Tonight and started wandering roond with Bodyguards packing glocks. This Harry vs the UK Press will go on and on. The only thing Ive taken from that I can 100% believe is Camilla being a bit a dragon behind the scenes. That and Kate being a bitch and a half. William too looks like hed sacrifice animals on an altar to protect the Monarchy and his "destiny". Och well, so much for Fab 4 and modern Royalty.

Victorian Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) Boy's clearly going off his chump. He's drooling about how the media have lied about his words re killing the 25 Talibani. Taken out of context, blah blah. His words are "not dangerous" but the media spin is dangerous to his family. Absolute nonsense. It's a clear signal that not all his dogs are barking that he refuses to take ownership of the responsibility for that information becoming public. He included it in his book ffs. Semantics about context mean very little here. It was his choice to publicise this. He's got the chubbiest of chubs on about the media. Fine. The remedy is to get out of the media's glare. He wont change the media. He has no god given right to be able to anyway. Go away. **** off. Protect your family.
