The Queen may have to change her plans for a traditional Christmas.

Never mind the Queen, there could be a shortage of Christmas Puds! The newspapers report panic buying of them (it’s October 1st)?

Shortage of sprouts you say lemon? Oh good, detest the things!

I still have my two 4 year old Christmas puds in the cupboard if Her Maj would like one?
Should I test one out on DH first?

Here we go - royal bashing again. Who believes everything they read in the newspapers?

It must be true, it’s from an unnamed source ! ! ! !

Apart from one or two, I think this thread is quite lighthearted.

We always expect the usual republican moans even when a thread about the RF is not serious.

Well I agree. However when I said I wasn’t bothered I was leapt on !

Yes Callistemon do try one out on your DH to make sure it’s still edible, although in my long experience of husbands they will eat anything (looks round carefully in case Grandad is watching for misandry.)?

I make Christmas puddings every three years, they keep well and taste delicious more so after several years.

Well I agree. However when I said I wasn’t bothered I was leapt on!

Well, I was going to jump on you for your spelling, Lucca

"Am I bovvered" is correct.

Yes, they're good dustbins!
Once trained properly, of course. Mine's nearly trained but not quite; it does take some time.

My grandchildren always preferred Popty Ping to the actual Welsh Word lemongrove it is so onomatopoeic, but as your question was directed to Callistemon I will leave the reply to her. Thanks, Lexisgranny!

Meicrodon?

Isn’t that a type of dinosaur Callistemon ?
Yes, popty ping is much better, I shall call it that henceforth.

Meicrodons still roam the hills and vales here in Cymru.
They are very secretive but can be seen if you know where to look.

Oh yeah but no but yeah.

Does it look like I'm bovvered?

MrsRochester The Queen would never wear her slippers in the sitting room?

Quite right, too.
I was thinking, rather, G&T, dinner on tray on sofa in bedroom. Like me

Somehow I don't think the queen said she was furious. It's more likely to be those who arrange where she will stay and who will stay with her. If only our main problem this Christmas was choosing which castle we lived it. I don't think she should be performing any duties, let her stay safe with hubby and let the younger royals take over.

Well she may have been furious, but I doubt she said it to anyone who she couldn't trust to not talk to the Daily Mail.
