Look Bob, it’s Cheesy Nacho Night!

Okay, I’m finished. I used to love going out to nice restaurants with Queen Elizabeth., but I’m afraid I just don’t have the patience anymore.
I mean, she’s a very nice person and she’s good about splitting the check and everything, but who died and made her queen? There are just too many hassles.
“No Bob, you may NOT give my crown to the hat-check peasant! I shall continue to wear it!”
And the endless questions about the menu:
“I say, these spicy chicken wings? Can one eat them with white gloves?”
“This “all you can drink” sangria special. Is it REALLY all one can drink?
“If I can’t finish my entire t-bone steak, may I take the rest home in my pocketbook?”
“Never mind that, I should enjoy a nice falcon tonight. My son Charles over there, holding my cape, shall choose a bird for me.”
“Charles! Do select a nice one, and haggle over the price! One isn’t made of money!”

I just love that posh note in your voice Basler.. Say, did you learn to speak like that in America or were you in fair Britain for a while? What did you say? I influenced you to pick up the English accent? Oh my! I am flattered..
Charles, leave Camilla in the pigsty and get this nice gentleman a drink… thats ok, she looks much bearable amongst the pigs… Come along now! Chop! Chop!
Bob, if you should change your mind, you can borrow my crown next time you dine with the Queen. It’s authentic. I was crowned at BurgerKing.
Hail the King… sorry, Hail the Doctor King!!!
Now, Robert, you really shouldn’t pick on the mother of he whom we, your loyal readers, voted to be the coolest leader on the planet! Why, he looks every bit as fierce as the falcon in that picture!!
As much as I adore Prince Charles, and I do adore Prince Charles, he looks like he’s saying something like “and has the falcon eaten your hand, then?”
“I do say, what wine would you recommend to go with joining the Oddly Enough blog network?”
Mmmm spicy chicken wings….mmmmmm…
The falcon is not for eating.
“… who died and made her Queen?”
Uh, wouldn’t that be her father, King George the Fifth?
Actually Blog Guy, I have it on good authority that the diminuitive Queen was the one who terminated the relationship, as SOMEONE kept swapping her booster pillow for a whooopie cushion.
Prey handler fella might be cute from a front view..
Well,l there’s a sentence you don’t see very often…
I say – jolly good show bringing back posts on the royals what for. I do so love catching up on their shenanigans.
CG, he would!! He would!! He would!!
Umm… Falcons don’t have spicy wings, and what that bloke’s handling is a Peregrine. Will that do ? My crow is more… well, more not your standard crow.
I wouldnt ever know the difference… these birds are just… beautiful…
CG, maybe you could use your crow in the super girl group… you know… like “eyes in the sky”… how cool is that!!!!
