My mums' mate - HRH Liz

[Biff]

My mum went to Buckingham palace (again) last week in order to meet Queen Liz. It's the second time they've 'met'.

As my mum approached Her Majesty she said, " Hello Sue (mama Biff), nice to meet you again."

"How's your son?" (I've also met her. Liz that is, not my mum, well I have met my mum, ahh foget it)

He, he. I'm freakin royalty me.

[Colapop]

You gonna throw up on her/in her handbag? Or just gonna cop a feel once she's pissed out?

[Beemer]

Not nice to call your mum a dog - HRH's first corgi was called Susan - but of course, being a right royal pain whatever, you'd know that...

[crashe]

awwww you bored again Biff..... you got no work on at the mo? :rofl:

A bit of useless info for ya Biff.
I too have meet Liz and Phil... and even spoke to Phil...
Liz was preoccupied at the time... talking to some little kid.:spudgrr:
But then she popped over... to say hello...
I do find thou that they could lower their airs and graces a tad.
:banana: :spudbooge :banana:

[scumdog]

She wanted to know about the OTHER son, not the remittance man son fired off to New Zealand for some indiscretion!!
(like wearing the royal bloomers like a clown hat while rogering the scullery maid in the cutlery cupboard - thought I didn't know about that episode eh?):blip:

[Biff]

awwww you bored again Biff..... you got no work on at the mo? :rofl:



Loads of work mate, but can't be arsed to do any. Arrived home on Friday - off again tomorrow. So technically I'm at home packing my bags.

Bored? Nah - just showing off - again.

I'm an 'envoy' mate - sent here to teach you heathens how un-fashionable facial hair is.

[ManDownUnder]

Sounds like I'm the lucky one then - I ain't meeted either of them...

Jees biff... you're like a bloody rockstar you are... can I hang on your coat tails - maybe have a few of your cast offs... (don't want to stir any of your porridge though... jut the fresh ones)

So could you sleep with my other half so that I could have royal something in the family too :devil2: Just don't tell her.

Ok - but only because you're a nice chap (and your lady is cute).

But, in true regal fashion, she'll have to kneel before me first.....

Hehehe, thanks, so does this mean that I can now claim diplomatic immunity. :lol:

Nice - co-pilot's uncle was Sir Roden Cutler VC. 'Uncle Ro'. He was a good mate of HRH too. Longest serving and most poular governor of NSW. Order of the garter and all that.

Got his VC for actions against the Vichy French in Africa - captured a machine gun placement behind enemy lines and held if for 5 days providing invaluable recon at the cost of his badly wounded leg.

Had several 'audiences' with him later in life. Told me yarns about his mates Lizzy and one D.G.Bradman.

A great man and unaffected by it. Just a bloke - apart from his deeds. I opened with 'We've got something in common....' and he was wrapt in my medal story too, being the former patron of the Society that awards them.

He died 2 years ago - not long after Colleen McCulloch wrote his biography.
The signed copy is a treasure. Co-pilot had a pride of place in one of the biggest Civic ceremonies Sydney ever saw.

Nice work your mum - what was she there for?

[Mooch]

biff , I was at her house the other day.... The Queens , not your Mums so don't worry. Our recent guests have met her too .... Something about the Queens order of merit ... and they ride motorcycles too. She must be one cool lady ...

Wow - Sir Roden Cutler VC, AK, KCMG, KCVO, CBE. A very well known guy in some circles. Huge respek.

Tea, cucumber sandwhiches and a yarn. My mum's the director of a well known international voluntary organisation. She got her *BE a couple of years back.


She must be one cool lady ...

Of course - she's my mum!
(she doesn't have my ego though)

[Mooch]

Hey Biff , Are you still coming over ... or have you been or are you a has been ...

[Biff]

Hey Biff , Are you still coming over ... or have you been or are you a has been ...

Haven't been. Won't be (this side of crimbo). I was side-tracked by something else. So I met the people I needed to somewhere else.

Has been?
Will be soon. Farq I need a sleep.

We sat with him in the study of his Potts Point unit.
The only item or recognition of all those awards was the order of the garter immediately behind his desk.
His nephew Stephen was reasonably handy at the rugby thing too.

Actually, reminds me - he gave my young bloke an All Blacks jersey that he had swapped at the end of a test match, when Matthew was much younger.

Number 18 AB in a test that Stephen 'Skylab' Cutler played - anybody suggest who's it could have been? (nobody can so far)

An envoy? pah! you're a remittance man and don't you forget it!:bash:

And what's this crap about facial hair?? :spudwhat:
Only girls blouses that can't grow any make statements like yours - in which case I suppose a razor lasts about 6 months with your efforts at facial hair anyway!:lol: :killingme

[Big Dave]

Woohoo! I'm unfashionable! :wari:

yeah me too. I'm clean shaven these days - well 4 days growth max.

All I can visualise right now is the Village People's cop at the keyboard.

Contact the Rugby Union organisation here in Auckland... they will have a list of all players.... even the reserves in every game played by the All Blacks.

Number 18 is a Reserve player - but it could be a well known player as well.

That jersey could be worth a bit in a few years time...
Is it the new type jersey or the older style?

Long sleeve stretchy material white cotton collar - and pretty faded now.
Size of it, he was a half. I'd wear it to rark y's up, but I can't get in it.

Right then its going back a fair bit then...

Im trying to remember when they changed over to the newer type jerseys...It was at a world cup... 1986 was the old style jersey's and David Kirk was the Captain and we won that series.
They then played in South Africa and Michael Jones played in the one game and he was in the older style jersey and then in the UK 1996 - Jona Lomu was in that game and he was wearing the newer style jersey... they had changed over then.

So it was either during or prior to 1996 that the older jerseys were worn.
I hope that helps to elimate the years for you..

Damn, you really know how to hurt a guy. I'm exposed as a plagiarist! :slap:

If you knew how much of my material came from the 'Morey Amsterdam Joke Book' - circa 1960 - you wouldn'y feel so bad.

Listen. Strange women sitting in palaces distributing cups of tea is no basis for a system of government.

[mstriumph]

[jrandom]

No, definitely 'tart (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071853/quotes)'.

A subsequent line, though, is "just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me..."

Adam? anyone?? Eve mebbe???

[Ixion]

Bessie is not HRH , she is HM. Sort of. De facto only. Sort of Claytons Queen Now, if y'met the rightful King, THAT would be something to boast about. God Save King Francis.

[Skyryder]

...bastards...

The only claim to fame our family has to royalty, is that one of our ancestors was one of Marie Antoinette's ladies-in-waiting who fled to Scotland to escape the gullotine. Blessing in disguise.............to think I may have been a froggie.
