[Elizabeth II]

I'm gonna whack that boy.

[Elizabeth II]

Oh, and First!

Well, I'm the Second, but I am First on this occasion.

*Proclaims Royal Holiday*

[ubetcha]

Somebody should whack the head off of that egghead.

[Reddsuss]

He does look like the pissboy.

[Siouxie]

I'd like to boil his Royal Huevos...sheesh.

[casey]

I love a good egg too, but I always have to cook my own. burp.

[russell]

He also likes to push the pram a lot.....

[queensbee]

upper class twit of the year. decade.

[Meanie the Blue]

Two very frightening words: King. Charles.

[Siouxie]

I got two more frightening words for ya Meanie:

Queen. Camilla.

[Meanie the Blue]

*Shudders to think where this two-words thing is gonna lead......*

[Jeff Meyerson]

I'd like to boil his Royal Huevos...sheesh.

Siouxie, I think mama cut them off long ago.

[insomniac]

*not funny*
i think Charles may choose a different 'throne name', George VII has been mentioned, something to do with Charles having bad associations or something... (Charles I was executed, his son Charles II, though definitely a fun guy, is not the best role model for a king.)

"he could knock the top off number six or seven"

Has anyone told this duffus that not only is he not king, but also that beheadings are so-o-o bad form.

[Beppie]

Well, at least he doesn't do that with his steak. "Nope, too rare...no, way to done...this seventh one is perfect!"

[Layzeeboy]

Don't they have a royal egg timer? I'm just askin'.

[Stevie W]

Let them eat omelets.

[Eleanor]

One would think so, Layzee boy...:)

[estrogen centrale]

Beppie, you make it sound like Goldilocks & the 3 bears...

[Meanie the Blue]

Thanks, Insom.

If he's permitted to choose his own name, it's gotta be Arthur II.

[Beppie]

Yes EC it is like Goldilocks isn't it? Only with finer digs and much better "porridge". I wonder if they serve Malt O Meal down at the Castle?

[Betsy]

I would think by the time he had worked his way down to # six and declared it inadequate, # 7 would be unsuitably cool, and he'd have to start over. Unless they're cooked on some kind of timed interval basis. Inquiring minds want to...well, actually, they don't really give a royal fig.

[estrogen centrale]

Beppie,
I don't know... boiled eggs ain't much better than porridge. And, some of those othere things that Brits consume: tripe, steak & kidney pie, haggis, kippers, oxtail... you get the idea.

Perhaps the bonnie P might try washing his eggs down with a cuppa bat tea.

[Beppie]

Oh my gosh, when I found out what Haggis is, all I could think of is "Why dear lord, would someone eat that?"

[morphed]

Perhaps Scotland, being a Catholic country, got tired of Hail Marys and decided to invent a new form of penance.

[estrogen centrale]

Beppie, sure makes boiled eggs sound positivelty delicious, huh?

[martinn]

Sorry, morphed, but Scotland isn't a Catholic country. The largest single denomination, with 42% of the population, is the Church of Scotland, which is Presbyterian. Only 15% are Catholics, while 28% describe themselves as having no religion.

Haggis is probably a result of Scottish carefulness with money - a way of using the parts of the sheep that would otherwise be discarded. And of course once you've had enough Scotch whisky, you don't really care what you're eating.

[morphed]

Scotland is not a Catholic country currently. However, haggis dates back a few centuries to a time prior to the switch to a Protestant majority.
