maryportfuncity 10,646 Posted August 29, 2006 That's a thoughtful gesture and their intention to supply the correct information is admirable. If only I had the right e-mail addresses I'd copy this link to the Israeli government, Gerald Ford and Margaret Thatcher's offices and the Astor family, to name a few.

MyBrainHurts2 4 Posted August 29, 2006 The Tongan Government is setting up a website to keep deathlisters (and perhaps other interested parties) informed about the current health of the king. That's really considerate of them. I do believe I owe the site's conceiver a big, wet, sloppy kiss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gunjaman5000 30 Posted September 3, 2006 It looks like the reformists are trying to tip him over the edge. The official report of the “Kingdom of Tonga National Committee for Political Reform” (NCPR) was presented to His Majesty King Taufa’ahau Tupou IV at Mercy Hospital yesterday evening. Her Royal Highness Princess Salote Pilolevu Tuita received the report on behalf of His Majesty the King Taufa’ahau Tupou IV. I can see him hiding behind the door whispering to the Queen, "Tell 'em I'm not here, they might go away..." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus of Odstock 2,194 Posted September 5, 2006 Any update on this? I can't find any such site -- just news reports that one would be set up. Yep. www.palaceoffice.gov.to. In other news, King spends Fathers Day with family. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alphonsin 1 Posted September 5, 2006 Thanks for that, OoO. I love the way they've got the funeral links etc in place (though not yet linking to anything). Maybe Tongan web designers aren't quick enough to work on the hop? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handrejka 1,903 Posted September 7, 2006 I've been advised I should tell you about the dream I had the other night. I dreamt someone phoned up the bank where I work claiming to be The King of Tonga. I realised this was a fraud as T4 is in no state to be calling us so I alerted my boss. She had no idea what I was talking about so I told her about dl. We had a look at this thread and read that he'd died. (And I was a heroine as I'd prevented a massive fraud taking place) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
