Ah well, so long as the Act of Settlement of 1701 is observed....... might be rather fun if Harry married a Thai lass. Good post btw Tezza.

The word monarchy is not spelt with a capital letter.


There's no problem that can't be ignored if we really put our minds to it.

No CC - the word monarchy isn't spelt with a capital but when you refer to the Monarchy it is. Along with Queen, Regina, Prince, Royal, Consort. A bit like saying captain and courageous are not spelt with a capital. Or does that include australian, aboriginal, and criminal?

Now, where are those ashes?

Crikey ana,+ sounds like you been attending Prof Fart’s English tutorials. Hint: give the ones on relative pronouns the big miss. Farty is on a mission to +put the toff+ back in the English language and has banned the word +who. He hasn’t earned the aka Dr Whom for nothing.

And you dudes can’t bait me about sport. The Barmy Army is super popular in Australia. As is the England team when playing well. Whom cares if the ashes stay in blighty? My manhood does not shink if “my” team loses. I watch sport to see good matches, not to affirm my worth as a person.

I could be churlish and mention whom won last time England played Oz in soccer.
But that’s history. Right now is what counts. I can see a WORRY COLLECTIVE coming up from England manager Fabio Capello.

FC ‘Allo. I worry about team morale. Lads need some relax an' a easy win or two. My cousin, he got resort on Ko Lanta - we go stay, soak up some sun and win a few games against local side. Lift team, no risk.

TWC Not too sure that’s such a good idea Fabe. Our footbball researcher tells me Gerhart Rahn whom was a reserve back for Bayern Munich back in the 70s lives on Lanta with his 17 y.o. Thai g.f. He could form the nucleus of a pretty good team made up of local youngsters - from all accounts the Baan Sala Dan High School under 16s^^ are playing well.
Maybe you should pick an island with a smaller talent pool. Know anyone with a resort on Ko Bu Bu?
