Man, I gotta say, that was just creepy!
What was, Lamar?
Are you kidding, Clancy? You didn’t see who was just here?
No, I was watching that Lady Gaga video on the big screen. Who was it?
Queen Elizabeth.
She was NOT!
Was too!
That IS strange. I don’t think she’s even a member here! What did she do?
She told me this machine is “jolly good for one’s quadriceps.”
Wow. Did you say anything to her?
Yeah, I said, “Who died and made you queen?”
That sounds about right. I’m guessing she won’t be back.

She just doesn’t look “Queenly”.
Now THIS is a Queen: http://blogs.reuters.com/oddly-enough/20 11/03/16/give-us-a-big-smile-your-majest y/
look at the two students in background, probably thinking
“Will she ever ride one of these”
The first girl is probably thinking…. maybe if I show that I am paying attention, she would be impressed and lemme take a pic with Prince Goofy, who MUST be here in the background!
Only one word comes to mind; awkward. The Queen (with no disrespect meant) has no clue what’s going on. The students have their Queen standing there watching what they do so they are trying not to look like ponces. And since they are riding static bikes every time anyone moves they shock everyone else around them. Yes, very awkward.
Oh. I thought this was a QEII photobomb.
Whoops, silly me.
Give a monarch a break! She’s darned near 85 years old and I think it’s great that she’s still getting out out and about!
She’s thinking “Is THIS all that my patronage gets me? Where’s Mr. Fab Abs? Where’s all the sweaty hunks?”
Maybe she’s just waiting her turn? I wonder what song is going through her mind …
“The wheels on the bus go round and round, …”
@justCAM.. LOL, and you know everyone who read that in their head sang it in the voice of the Queen.
AARRGHhhh! I can’t believe Mr. Spam Filter ate my haiku! I hope he chokes on it!
Actually the voice in my head sang it in the voice of Mrs. Doubtfire, but it was almost the same thing…you know, uncomfortable and a little surreal.
No dice, Jazz…. Mr. S.F. has eaten nothing today.
OOOKay, then. One.. more.. time!
Waiting patiently
for her turn on the bike, the
Queen is bored to tears
Lol, Jazz!! Loved the choking comment..
May I?
Attempting haiku
to fit in with Spin and Jazz
very hard work i say
Queen visit at gym,
But wait, its not the band -
It’s just Goofy’s ma.
even Shra can’t get excited about those shoes! Nice take on the Paddington Bear hat the Queen Mum is sporting. With the coat and that lovely handbag, HRH is looking a bit like one of Monty Python’s pepperpots!
