Royal oneupmanship

Never let it be said that the royal family don't practice oneupmanship. Brenda is well-known as one who disapproves of Brian Bonkers' various extravagances. He was most recently criticized in the press for flying to America to collect an environment award. Buck House announced today that when Brenda flies to America next month she will be making a contribution to an ecological fund to offset the global warming emissions of Her Aircraft - a bit of a tip I passed on to her during my recent sojourn at Windsor Castle

All the stale gas that one passes, its going to cost her more than just a few dinner stamps.

Pardon my Yankee ignorance, but who are "Brenda" and "Brian Bonker"? I assume that "Buck House" is Buckingham Palace? If so, the B and BB are members of the British royal family?

bkk there names made up to cover the real names of the people concerned. Work it out now who they really are!

I'll give you a subtle hint. Brenda = HM The Queen, Brian Bonkers = Prince Charles. Do you think you can work it out now? :geek:

By the way, if you believe anything Beryl tells you, well, bigger fool you! :cyclopsani: :cyclopsani: :cyclopsani:

The names originated in the UK satirical magazine "Private Eye" (which also, by the way, coined the name Lunchtime O'Booze - familiar to members of this board - as appropriate for an archetypal drunken journalist).

They were making the point that the British royal family is quintessentially and depressingly middle class in its attitudes and so ought to have middle class names.

Prince Philip, by the way, is similarly re-christened "Keith".

Prince Philip, by the way, is similarly re-christened "Keith".And the term "Ugandan relations" was coined after the late Princess Margaret was observed coming out of a room during a diplomatic party followed closely by a member of the Ugandan High Commission

I thought he was Stavros or kebab or something. I only vaguely remember spitting image, but liked it a lot, we weren't allowed TV during early primary school years, we just got taped David Attenborough's, the secrete life of plants. So ask me anything about Rafflesia and I can tell you.

So ask me anything about Rafflesia and I can tell you.How are you on amoebae?

Amoeba aren't plants, dumbass.

They are aquatic dust mites; often found in bogs.
Face-sitter's often acquire them and pass them on to face-sittees.
Amoeba are the leading cause of assma & butt-chewlism.
They can be wiped out with hole-istic medicine--Or gassed.
homi is a great authority on them, Aunty.
Nevertheless, he believes they are plants since his hang from his nose and are green: like air-moss.
Um ... No, more like Ch-ch-ch-Chia plants.
(Remember when he tried growing chia plants on his bald pate--As a cheap hair-replacement
and so he could hide in the bottom of a budgie cage?...only to find the poor budgie had been nuked.)

...only to find the poor budgie had been nukedI take it you're referring to Monica, Hedda's budgie? It was my niece Tourette (poster Aunty) who suggested Monica go into Witness Protection in New Zealand. Not content with butchering innocent amoebae, she decided to grasp at the big time, and look how it ended up. Aunty's brain's level of comfort with other single cell organisms is well illustrated by this sorry tale
