Will you be cracking open the champagne with a few friends? Celebratory dinner out with your nearest and dearest? Down the pub watching it on telly and cheering the happy couple on? How will YOU be spending the day?

― Susanna Perkins, Tuesday, 5 April 2005 14:56 (twenty years ago)

Hi! Do you work for the press?

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:00 (twenty years ago)

I'll be knocking one off.

The Camille Album
Fall 1986

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Now that the Black album has been officially released, Camille is arguably the best-known unreleased Prince album. True, seven out of its eight tracks have seen official release, but unless you're hip to Camille's original track listing, you may never fully appreciate the wonderful, coherent album that's scattered throughout your collection.
The Camille tracks were recorded after the Dream Factory sessions had been abandoned and the Crystal Ball project had begun. Six new tracks were produced, 1983's Feel U Up was rerecorded, and Strange Relationship was rebuilt from what sound like basic tracks from the 1985 recording.

The plan for Camille's release was similar to the one for the Black Album: take a bunch of funky tracks, release them without identifying them as "Prince" songs, and see what the public makes of it. The album contained a number of tunes that have gone on to be fan's favorites, all distinguished by the speeded-up voice Prince started experimenting with on Love or Money. The album was credited to "Camille," 100 test pressings were created, and it was given a catalog number and release date (January 1987).

The plan for the cover art is unknown; the album was presumably titled simply Camille. The album was withdrawn from Warner's release schedule, and Prince quickly began incorporating pieces of it into his Crystal Ball project. Camille tracks continued to be called into service on miscellaneous releases through 1989. Rockhard in a Funky Place finally became available with the belated release of the Black Album. The only track that remains unreleased is Rebirth of the Flesh- its hook was used in Diamonds and Pearls' Walk Don't Walk, so it's unlikely that it will ever come out.

I think the wedding is off, so that Chuck can attend the Pope's funeral.

― Huk-L, Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:02 (twenty years ago)

Throwing up. Were Charles human, he’d do the same everytime he kisses her.

― Raymond Cummings (Raymond Cummings), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:03 (twenty years ago)

No I don't, Markelby! I work as a buyer at a biochemicals export company!

― Susanna Perkins, Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:03 (twenty years ago)

Hi! Do you work as a buyer at a biochemicals export company?

― Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:04 (twenty years ago)

Ooh, knocking one off sounds good. Shall we organise a mass-turbate? A royal wanking, if you will?

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:04 (twenty years ago)

Throwing up. Were Charles human, he’d do the same everytime he kisses her.

Now that was very sexist, Raymond! I don't think Camilla is bad-looking for her age! She's certainly no worse than the Prince!

― Susanna Perkins, Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:06 (twenty years ago)

I might go along to Windsor, check out the vibes. See if I can't bag me a souvenir mug.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:06 (twenty years ago)

Sure. I had to postpone it for saturday. On friday i now have other plans. I'll be watching teh pope's funeral and knocking one off.

― Masked Gazza, Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:07 (twenty years ago)

I'm going along to throw rice at them - tinned rice that is, BOOM! BOOM!

― Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:08 (twenty years ago)

tim rice that is

― mark s (mark s), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:08 (twenty years ago)

Is Camilla having a hen night? Wondering round the streets banging pots and pans and snogging 19 year old lads? Or is that more Charles' style?

― Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:12 (twenty years ago)

.. and will she be wearing an "L" plate, like Deirdre Barlow-to-be?

― mark grout (mark grout), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:13 (twenty years ago)

The "L" Word

― mark s (mark s), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:14 (twenty years ago)

Susanna, she was gross back in the 1980s, too! This has nothing to do with sexism or ageism – Bea Arthur make a MUCH better kissing fantasy (she’s somehow always been sorta hot to me, and I’m 28).

― Raymond Cummings (Raymond Cummings), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:42 (twenty years ago)

I was going to make almost exactly the same type of comment as Chaki.

― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:52 (twenty years ago)

I shall insert a tampon.

― god why am I actually going to hit submit on this one? (luna.c), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 16:43 (twenty years ago)

I wonder if people will be selling commemorative plates or tea towels, that would be so scary that it might be kind of awesome.

― Leon Bluth (Ex Leon), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 16:47 (twenty years ago)

of course they have, they now all have the incorrect date on them.

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 16:48 (twenty years ago)

Even better.

― Leon Bluth (Ex Leon), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 16:50 (twenty years ago)

the biggest seller has been a £9.99 plastic replica of the wedding ring from Wal-Mart's Asda subsidiary.

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 16:51 (twenty years ago)

i am going to xXx out di and draw camilla onto all my old 1982 commemorative plates w.magick marker

― mark s (mark s), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 17:03 (twenty years ago)

I think Ice Cube should conduct the wedding

― Sven Basted (blueski), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 17:56 (twenty years ago)

Why, Miss Perkins, I shall be cracking open my best Bollinger with the aid of the hapless heads of some of those so-called Asylum Seekers, who as we all know are Pedophile perverts sent to destroy this great country of ours as we know it, in glorious celebration of the union of our King In Waiting with the Lady Love of his life, whom he should certainly have been allowed to marry instead of that subversive, but thankfully now dead, nasty little left-wing below-stairs specimen Diana Spencer. I shall cheer on the happy couple for Great Britain, the country I know where youths respect the law and their elders and betters and are not above receiving a well-merited and timely clip round the ear from their local "bobby" when they dare to indulge in errant activity. God Save Our Majesty! Hip! Hip! Hurrah!

― Roger Bristol (nostudium), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 05:50 (twenty years ago)

I think Steve Beresford or Terry Day should conduct the wedding.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 09:55 (twenty years ago)

I'll be enacting amateur dramatics with the local Unemployed Actors Guild. Here's the script (Camilla is played by Bill Beverly, an unemployed slate mine worker, Charles by Stanley Porker, a retired pig farmer):

Camilla: Mmmm. You're awfully good feeling your way along.
Charles: Oh Stop! I want to feel my way along you, all over you and up and down you and in and out...
Camilla: Oh!
Charles: Particularly in and out!
Camilla: Oh. that's just what I need at the moment.
Charles: Is it?
Camilla: I know it would revive me. I can't bear a Sunday night without you.
Charles: Oh, God.
Camilla: It's like that programme Start the Week. I can't start the week without you.
Charles: I fill up your tank!
Camilla: Yes, you do
Charles: Then you can cope.
Camilla: Then I'm all right
Charles: What about me? The trouble is I need you several times a week.
Camilla: Mmmm, so do I. I need you all the week. All the time.
Charles: Oh. God. I'll just live inside your trousers or something. It would be much easier!
Camilla: (laughing) What are you going to turn into, a pair of knickers?
(Both laugh)
Camilla: Oh, You're going to come back as a pair of knickers.
Charles: Or, God forbid a Tampax. Just my luck! (Laughs)
Camilla: You are a complete idiot (Laughs) Oh, what a wonderful idea.
Charles: My luck to be chucked down the lavatory and go on and on forever swirling round on the top, never going down.
Camilla: (Laughing) Oh, Darling!
Charles: Until the next one comes through.
Camilla: Oh, perhaps you could come back as a box.
Charles: What sort of box?
Camilla: A box of Tampax, so you could just keep going.
Charles: That's true.
Camilla: Repeating yourself...(Laughing) Oh, darling I just want you now.
Charles: Do You?
Camilla: Mmmmm
Charles: So do I!
Camilla: Bye, Press the button.
Charles: Going to press the tit.
Camilla: All right darling, I wish you were pressing mine.
Charles: God, I wish I was, harder and harder.
Camilla: Oh, darling.
Charles: Night.
Camilla: Night.
Charles: Love you.
Camilla: (Yawning) Love you. Press the tit.
Charles: Adore you. Night.
Camilla: Night.
Charles: Night.
Camilla: (Blows a kiss)
Charles: Night.
Camilla: G'night my darling, Love you.

― Dave B (daveb), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:04 (twenty years ago)

I shall celebrate by working as hard as possible, so I can get the fuck out of this stupid country before I'm 50. Fuck a royal and fuck a tabloid editor.

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:07 (twenty years ago)

Now I can take a joke and everything, and I know you don't all mean what you say, but... you're all being rather grim about things, aren't you? The Prince works jolly hard for all of us, and I think it's marvellous that he's going to marry the woman he loves! Couldn't we all just put the cynicism and the sarcasm to one side just for a day, and raise a toast to the Prince and his bride? I know that's what I'll be doing!

― Susanna Perkins, Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:14 (twenty years ago)

The Prince works jolly hard for all of us

You joke, surely?

― caitlin (caitlin), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:15 (twenty years ago)

I've never seen such a grimly chipper troll!

― Momus (Momus), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:17 (twenty years ago)

Naming him charles was a good forthough on the part of her maj. Named after the frst king who brought on a republic. Off with his head.

― Ed (dali), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:17 (twenty years ago)

Just hush and find us a Dutchman.

― We Are All Full Of Kate (kate), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:19 (twenty years ago)

I know you don't mean it Ed!!!

― Susanna Perkins, Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:19 (twenty years ago)

To be honest, I don't wish the man ill at all. I mean, anyone who does such whimsical dirty phonecalls must be okay. You can tell he's a Buddhist at heart from this bit:

"My luck to be chucked down the lavatory and go on and on forever swirling round on the top, never going down."

When he says "my luck" he means "my karma", of course. And he's wrong about never going down, he'll go down soon enough.

― Momus (Momus), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:21 (twenty years ago)

I'm a monarchist and I find this vaguely embarrassing/hillarious.

― We Are All Full Of Kate (kate), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:24 (twenty years ago)

should be "*even* I"

― We Are All Full Of Kate (kate), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:24 (twenty years ago)

I think that if, for whatever reason, the British taxpayer ceased to fund him, Charles could open a sexy chatline (all calls charged at 88p/min., consult bill-payer) or an architectural consultancy (Monstrous Carbuncle Services, Ltd.).

(In fact, if there's one thing that annoys me about Price Charles and the monarchy in general, it's that he runs up big bills without consulting the bill-payer.)

― Momus (Momus), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:27 (twenty years ago)

Perhaps they should run the Grand National at the same time and in the same place as the wedding. Then we could all be privy to the horse-faced privileged Nazi cunts being trampled to their premature death beneath the hounding hooves of cold rationalism.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:34 (twenty years ago)

I don't like monarchists either. You love the 16th century so much, go and fucking live there.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:36 (twenty years ago)

It's called 'Norfolk'

― Dave B (daveb), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:42 (twenty years ago)

Norfolk is where people go to forget.

From Swaffham to Cromer, it's the antechamber of the afterlife.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:46 (twenty years ago)

Now you're a cheery soul, aren't you Marcello! I spent some happy childhood years in Norfolk and it's a lovely place.

― Susanna Perkins, Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:49 (twenty years ago)

I used to be an exceptionally cheery soul. I spent many happy times in Norfolk with my late wife, agree that it's a lovely place and will probably go off there to die quietly in the fullness of time.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:53 (twenty years ago)

Now you're a cheery soul, aren't you Marcello!

Susanna Perkins =

― Momus (Momus), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:55 (twenty years ago)

Is she thinking what she's thinking?

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 11:58 (twenty years ago)

"It's not Beverly, it's Susanna. Susanna Perkins. I work as a buyer at a biochemicals export company. Prince Charles is lovely, don't you think? Tails up! Toodle pip!"

― Momus (Momus), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 12:04 (twenty years ago)

Susanna: Next time you put on your lip-stick could you do something for me. Sit down, look at yourself and say "I've got very beautiful lips." And that way, when you apply your lipstick you'll be applying it to every corner of your mouth. Could you do that for me? Can you say "I've got very beautiful lips?"
Marcello: I've got very beautiful lips.
Susanna: Yah! And Marce, you're gonna notice the difference! Mwkay?

― Momus (Momus), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 12:13 (twenty years ago)

You sound like an amusing chap to have at a party, Momus! You haven't told us what you'll be doing on the great day!

― Susanna Perkins, Wednesday, 6 April 2005 12:28 (twenty years ago)

Don't know about Momus, but I'M A GONNA BE HUNTIN SHOOTIN AN FISHIN!!!!

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 12:51 (twenty years ago)

You haven't told us what you'll be doing on the great day

Well, I thought I might go and stand in front of some people, ask them to pay me money and attention, then say in a loud stage whisper how awful they are and how much I hate them, then criticize their taste and say they should know their place, then arrange for my first wife to die in a car crash, then listen to an episode of The Goon Show, guffawing, then play a bit of water polo, then do a spot of skiing, then ask a Maori about the terribly interesting naked dance he's doing for me, then make an obscene phonecall or two, then write a letter to an undervalued professional group telling them they're rank incompetents, then take over as monarch.

― Momus (Momus), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 12:55 (twenty years ago)

Except um my mother's going to live to 100, um, just like her um mother, um, so by the time she joins the choir invisible I shall be too old to be King and my son will get the job instead innit.

um...the Three Degrees.

Pope > Charles > Grand National

― Jarlr'mai (jarlrmai), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 13:04 (twenty years ago)

Most frightening troll ever.

― Archel (Archel), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 13:05 (twenty years ago)

Momus, I sense that you're a very young man and I'm sure you'll grow out of your cynicism. Do you really think the Prince arranged for the Princess to die in a car crash? And what say you about the grassy knoll?

― Susanna Perkins, Wednesday, 6 April 2005 13:05 (twenty years ago)

I'm perversely enjoying this.

― We Are All Full Of Kate (kate), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 13:06 (twenty years ago)

Naming him charles was a good forthough on the part of her maj. Named after the frst king who brought on a republic. Off with his head.

Of course, like a pope, he might pick a different regnal name if he's crowned. The Queen was a bit unusual (for a 20th-century monarch, at least) in *not* picking one - her father King George was called Albert before he was crowned, and Edward VIII had been David.

― caitlin (caitlin), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 13:10 (twenty years ago)

I'm enjoying this, not even perversely.

― Johnney B (Johnney B), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 13:13 (twenty years ago)

Every schoolboy knows it was that bastard Nazi gangster head of the household fucker Nazi bastard Prince Philip who had her killed so there couldn't be any royal brown babies! Didn't you see that programme about Fayed last week?

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 13:14 (twenty years ago)

I did! It left me thinking "god, that Keith Allen is a right tosser"

― caitlin (caitlin), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 13:15 (twenty years ago)

That's a rather blue taste in language you have there, Marcello! Of course, it's utterly absurd to imagine the Queen's Consort had anything to do with the tragic death of the Princess. (I could say something here about pastis-fuelled French drivers, but I won't!!!) But we're rather wandering from the topic here!

― Susanna Perkins, Wednesday, 6 April 2005 13:20 (twenty years ago)

How long have you been lurking Susanna?

― Dave B (daveb), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 13:22 (twenty years ago)

A couple of days, Dave!

I don't get it. I don't. Get it. Do you understand?

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 8 April 2005 11:29 (twenty years ago)

Shanking never solved anything, Marcello. I should know. And caitlin, You may not believe this, but I was once a bit like you. You'll turn out okay.

haha, Kate. You're right, I do sometimes take myself a little too seriously. Time out. Laters.

― Plunging Hen, Friday, 8 April 2005 11:31 (twenty years ago)

People have been telling me that for years, Hen. I've kind of given up on believing them.

(saying "Hen" like that makes me sound like an auld scots fishwife)

― caitlin (caitlin), Friday, 8 April 2005 11:33 (twenty years ago)

Say "Hen" like that again.

― Plunging Hen, Friday, 8 April 2005 11:36 (twenty years ago)

Aye, Hen

― caitlin (caitlin), Friday, 8 April 2005 11:38 (twenty years ago)

You're right, so you are, the way you say it does evoke the highlands.

― Plunging Hen, Friday, 8 April 2005 11:41 (twenty years ago)

I'm not entirely sure if that's a compliment or not

― caitlin (caitlin), Friday, 8 April 2005 11:48 (twenty years ago)

Let me ask you this. A pilot is landing his plane at an airport. He not only looks at his instruments, he looks at the fuckin runway to check that it's there. Who are you looking at? Who are you watching?

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 8 April 2005 11:48 (twenty years ago)

I don't think they say "hen" in the Highlands, do they?

― Dadrock, Meshach and Abednego (Dada), Friday, 8 April 2005 11:50 (twenty years ago)

There's Hen Broon, but he's a bloke.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 8 April 2005 11:51 (twenty years ago)

If the pilot has fixed methods, I would say that he was very good looking indeed.

― Plunging Hen, Friday, 8 April 2005 11:52 (twenty years ago)

Did we ever find out what happens if I mention BDSM again?

― caitlin (caitlin), Friday, 8 April 2005 11:53 (twenty years ago)

When you get your fuckin checks, do they bounce? Do you get full value on your checks? I want full value on your fuckin service.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 8 April 2005 11:56 (twenty years ago)

I don't profess to understand one tenth of what's being said on this thread, but I'm very pleased to see it at the top of the board again! Although I have to say I do detect a certain curmudgeonly attitude with regard to our Prince and his bride. Put aside your cynicism for a moment and let's simply celebrate the marriage of two people who are very much in love! Only one day to go! I'm sure I'm not the only one here already feeling a faint tingle of excitement!

― Susanna Perkins, Friday, 8 April 2005 11:59 (twenty years ago)

Wow, one sentence that isn't an exclamation!

(only one out of five, though)

― caitlin (caitlin), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:00 (twenty years ago)

The only satisfaction I'm gonna get is to ream your fuckin asses, like the coach of a football team, or any business, until you get it fuckin right.

I doubt it'll be as exciting as the Pope's funeral

fewer men in dresses at least

― Ed (dali), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:03 (twenty years ago)

Now I have a *delightful* mental image of George Bush in a sundress.

― caitlin (caitlin), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:04 (twenty years ago)

I was going to ask. How exciting was the Pope's funeral? And how on earth can they show "highlights" at 7:30 tonight? Er, highlights? (a) He's buried. (b) Erm, that's it. It will fare badly against Ken and Deirdre which is the WEDDING WE'RE ACTUALLY ALL EXCITED ABOUT

(note use of "we're actually all excited" does not necessarily imply that anyone here is remotely excited about Ken and Deirdre getting hitched again)

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:04 (twenty years ago)

Don't worry, Dadrock! It will be wonderful and exciting!

― Susanna Perkins, Friday, 8 April 2005 12:06 (twenty years ago)

Listen girlfriend, don't move in on my territory again, d'hear? I'm the mimsy one on this board. And people here have grown very fond of me.

― Plunging Hen, Friday, 8 April 2005 12:07 (twenty years ago)

What is this "Dadrock"? Is this like Chris de Burgh or other modern music to which Charles and Camilla doubtless listen in their blue boudoir after a hard day's harvesting?

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:08 (twenty years ago)

I'm sure I'm not the only one here already feeling a faint tingle of excitement!

How sure?

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:09 (twenty years ago)

Marcello, you ain't down with the Ocean Colour Scene scene?

― Dadrock, Meshach and Abednego (Dada), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:10 (twenty years ago)

"The Day We Caught The Train" sounds exactly like Chris de Burgh!

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:11 (twenty years ago)

Praise rarely comes higher

― Dadrock, Meshach and Abednego (Dada), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:15 (twenty years ago)

You'll adore the upcoming Chris Evans School Disco 2CD compilation...

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:16 (twenty years ago)

John Travolta is a (very good looking) pilot.

Forced at gunpoint, which one would you choose?

― Jean-François Lyotard, Friday, 8 April 2005 12:17 (twenty years ago)

Exactly, when you put Camilla alongside Diana like that she doesn't look that bad

― Dadrock, Meshach and Abednego (Dada), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:20 (twenty years ago)

I imagine that's probably what Diana looks like now, poor auld soul.

I find Camilla hot in a perversely sub-Gabrielle Drake kind of a way.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:22 (twenty years ago)

Only a pig would say such a thing.

― Plunging Hen, Friday, 8 April 2005 12:25 (twenty years ago)

KISS ME

I'll wait until she's finished sucking.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:31 (twenty years ago)

I think you're all being terribly cruel. That photo onviously caught Camilla while she was eating, and none of us look good like that, do we? Now here's a nice picture of Camilla, I think she's a smashing-looking woman!

― Susanna Perkins, Friday, 8 April 2005 12:34 (twenty years ago)

Are you sure you're not mixing up Camilla with his Late Holiness, Pope John Paul II?

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:35 (twenty years ago)

Three sentences, one query, one exclamation. Getting slightly better and less over-the-top.

― caitlin (caitlin), Friday, 8 April 2005 12:38 (twenty years ago)

Thank you!

― Susanna Perkins, Friday, 8 April 2005 12:42 (twenty years ago)

We've all been on form today, haven't we. No one has the edge. Marcello might well have lost some face when he made his semen passback allusion upthread, but his overall record is strong enough to withstand occasional wit-blibs. Come on, why not all of us walk away? Postmodernism isn't all it's cracked up to be. Freedom is a heart thing.

― Plunging Hen, Friday, 8 April 2005 13:01 (twenty years ago)

har hear, less post modernism, more modernism, more socialism and more republicanism

― Ed (dali), Friday, 8 April 2005 13:03 (twenty years ago)

And more cake too.

― caitlin (caitlin), Friday, 8 April 2005 13:19 (twenty years ago)

Do you want some of my cake? We got tons of cake here.

― Adherents of the Repeated Kate (kate), Friday, 8 April 2005 13:20 (twenty years ago)

Not if it's purple

(like your prose)

― caitlin (caitlin), Friday, 8 April 2005 13:20 (twenty years ago)

My cake is cappucino!

― Adherents of the Repeated Kate (kate), Friday, 8 April 2005 13:23 (twenty years ago)

Fine, you can can have your opinion, Ed, but you are a subject. Like it or not. Wherever you are, caitlin, Ed, Kate, Marcello - whether you're chillin' with mates, playing some pool, on a chat board or just watching TV - you remain subjects and there are people representing you abroad. Qu'ils mangent de la brioche ...

― Plunging Hen, Friday, 8 April 2005 13:23 (twenty years ago)

Yum!

(xpost)

Some toasted brioche would go down well, too.

― caitlin (caitlin), Friday, 8 April 2005 13:24 (twenty years ago)

I am a subject yes, so all the more reason to trim the royals at shoulder height

― Ed (dali), Friday, 8 April 2005 13:25 (twenty years ago)

Rule

Britannia!

(I said I was a monarchist. I mean after all, her Britannic Majesty requests and requires my safe passage. It says so on my passport! it's nice to know she cares...)

― Adherents of the Repeated Kate (kate), Friday, 8 April 2005 13:26 (twenty years ago)

Woo, someone has just given me a slice of lemon cake

(I'm too lazy to work out how to do yellow)

― caitlin (caitlin), Friday, 8 April 2005 13:32 (twenty years ago)

I caved to another slice of the cappucino. May go back and get some chocolate as well if we can finish this cake off and work on the next...

― Adherents of the Repeated Kate (kate), Friday, 8 April 2005 13:34 (twenty years ago)

This might interest you, Ed, being as you like computers: if it wasn't for the Prince's Trust, we wouldn't have had half the innovations in computer technology (that we've had). The Trust funded the very first web cam, for instance. Charles and his team made it possible for all of us to see and talk to people, or plants (joke), wherever we happen to be in the world.

― Plunging Hen, Friday, 8 April 2005 13:41 (twenty years ago)

I vaguely remember my university claiming to have invented the webcam - or, at least, the little golf-ball-style ones.

― caitlin (caitlin), Friday, 8 April 2005 13:57 (twenty years ago)

wow, sir price charles is responsible for 'naked hot coed teen cam sluts' spam.

― Ed (dali), Friday, 8 April 2005 13:59 (twenty years ago)

It's possible that your university did invent the webcam, but Prince Charles put up the money. That's all I'm saying. Think about it.
Laters guys.

(The boardinghouse reach of an xpost).

― Plunging Hen, Friday, 8 April 2005 14:09 (twenty years ago)

I would much rather there wasn't a Royal family, but Camilla is meant to be a nice person, so I hope it all goes off well for them.

― lil me, Friday, 8 April 2005 18:27 (twenty years ago)

BBC presenter: And now over to our Royal Correspondent, Captain Haddock. Captain, this is a day Charles and Camilla must have been looking forward to for a long, long time, isn't it?

Captain Haddock: Weevils! Slubberdegullions! Patagonians! Bashi-bazouks! Carpet-sellers! Pithecanthropic mountebanks!

― Momus (Momus), Friday, 8 April 2005 18:51 (twenty years ago)

Crowd control measures were in place at Slough station this morning, but no crowds.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Saturday, 9 April 2005 10:57 (twenty years ago)

I think this story is romantic, I don't like the royals but I think it just proves that even if you can get the nineteen year old blonde virgin, she's not necessarily the one who will make you happy.

― Nellie (nellskies), Saturday, 9 April 2005 10:58 (twenty years ago)

Why are Jools Holland and Sanjeev Bhaskar the studio-based pundits on the BBC?

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 9 April 2005 11:19 (twenty years ago)

Is no-one watching this? There are a lot of very strange hats. Why is Sting's missus a guest? The BBC are on their fourth lot of sofa-based pundits (currently Trinny and Susannah) since I turned the telly on fifteen minutes ago.

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 9 April 2005 11:32 (twenty years ago)

(Ken and Deirdre's wedding was rubbish)

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 9 April 2005 11:34 (twenty years ago)

Phil Collins! Kenneth Branagh! So many hateful people in one place!

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 9 April 2005 11:37 (twenty years ago)

I will celebrate by eating cinnamon babka.

― RS £aRue (rockist_scientist), Saturday, 9 April 2005 11:39 (twenty years ago)

& drinking some more Earl Grey.

So, it was just me that watched it then. Camilla had a hat that looked that she had a dead porcupine on her head.

It was very boring.

i'm still trying to figure what Marcello was quoting

― kingfish maximum overdrunk (Kingfish), Saturday, 9 April 2005 19:58 (twenty years ago)

Strap-ons, piss, feminisation, humiliation and degradation. C/D?
