She probably read …. or was given the wrong brief. My Ma in Law thought she was aristocracy - well her family were, but 80 years back since title. She took me to a remembrance service for one of her deceased relatives at Westminster Abbey. Invite said ‘court dress’ . I asked a friend of mine I knew would know what that was. ‘ Hat, dress, handbag and pigskin gloves darling! ‘I think Smegs the Raincoat Lady would suit flapper clothes to hide her waistless torso. Lower heels would help her legs too.
Those flippin marigolds she put on today looked really daft. Wonder how Gok would style her.![]()
This is really sweet. I am still half sure that Eugenie has been taking one for the team and being the go-between. Moving to Portugal is the perfect excuse to cut ties with the HarklesI know this isn't the Mike Tindall appreciation thread but.... I wonder if Harry misses the larking about now he's a mardy twat?
Bea deserves a high five for not shifting and allowing idiot duo the isle seats. He was pissed but she stood firm and then the others backed her up. Bea is growing on me. I’m beginning to really like her and Edo. They seem to be anti Suckeggs.A Royal flush!
Sophie & Edward are close to HMTQ & completely inner circle.
I can only imagine what went down when Sophie met up with Camilla, Anne, Zara & Catherine over drinks at the Guildhall.
When Edward, Charles, William & Mike stood shoulder to shoulder at the pissoir after a long lunch.
For a change, HMTQ was not at the front of the church in the moment of the service.
She was likely sat at home on a comfy sofa watching BBC live coverage, so have a bird‘s eye view of them moseying down the aisle. Smegs caboose banging side to side & ‘Azza looking shifty, her wretched taloned claw in his back steering him along.
The moment when the Gruesomes paused for Bea et al to shuffle along to allow them the aisle seats, Bea (bless her) sat firm & the others followed.
‘Azza, Bea & Euge all know from the earliest age that any formal Royal event is meticulously planned to the nth degree & millisecond, there are stewards & ushers who are briefed & deployed to make our pageantry which has political & historic meaning that most of us don’t know or fully grasp, run smoothly because it is not theatre. There is no room for whim or manoeuvre, no nabbing of seats for a better view or be with yer bestie. However Royal or Vippy you may be, you sit where you are told.
A few choice words might pass HMTQ’s lips - ‘Oh FFS, Pike you stupid boy!’
I love Beatrice look of "what the fuck". There's no way in hell she or Eddo were shifting over to give up the aisle seatsFinally caught up with this thread, was great to read all the comments yesterday and today.
Kuddos to Zara and Mike for keeping an eye on the Harkles, cannot imagine anyone else doing it for the family (also love his photos on insta with the hats, they are definitely the most cool couple there). They were able to keep the gruesomes at distance from PC&C and W&C, but probably the entry walk was a bit of their “sweet nod” to Meagain’s solo walk as we remember it from the wedding. From the photo it seems that Bea is in awe and disgusted by their “extra” walk and seating requests.

It's a bit like someone going onto the Katie Price threads and saying she's a good mum.While most would bite at this incendiary comment, "go home, you're lost " this doesn't do any favors. It makes you appear set in your ways and not open to constructive conversation.
