I feel sorry for him..it's not everyone who can cope with being in the public eye all the time... especially at 94 when he perhaps preferred to be having a nap or watching the tennis...or whatever.He has supported the Queen for all these years and his every word is reported.

Wend Report 10 Jul 2015 22:59

I think he's extremely well cared for and fawned over by his minions around 90% of the time. On the few occasions he has to be in the public eye he should behave himself.

Hope he got a slap from Her Maj when he got home :-D

What I loved was Prince William's face! He obviously heard what was said and tried hard not to smile but gave in to a big grin. :-D

he's a great guy an inspiration to anybody over 60 long may he rule over press photographers and their ilk

When I get older, losing my hair, many years from now
Will you still be sending me a valentine, birthday greetings, bottle of wine?
If I'd been out 'til quarter to three, would you lock the door?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I'm ninety-four?

You'll be older too
Ah
And, if you say the word, I could stay with you

I could be handy, driving a horse, when yours has cast a shoe
You can knit a sweater by the fireside, Sunday mornings, go for a ride
Doing the garden, digging the weeds, who could ask for more?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I'm ninety-four?

Every summer we can rent our cottage
In the Isle of Wight if it's not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Ah
Great Grandkids on your knee
George, Charlotte, Ann, Isla

Send me a postcard, drop me a line, stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say, yours sincerely, cursing away
Give me your answer, fill in a form, mine forever more
Will you still need me, will you still feed me when I'm ninety-four?

The English language is a wonderful composition of varied words & sayings that just seem to roll off the tongue.

But it is interspersed with taboo words & unacceptable phrases. They may be made up of a few letters of the alphabet & arranged in a particular order. But in their power to cause offence, these naughty words might as well be weapons.

Even in the most polite society, we sometimes permit language capable of wreaking profound devastation.

PP should know better! :-P
