Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted June 3, 2013 This is the end, my only friend the end Seems fairly possible but I'd give him a couple more illnesses before he goes. I'm gonna go out on a Pistorius and say he'll survive this year somehow. But it does seem like every time he goes outside for any length of time these days, he ends up in the hospital. Last year he got a bladder infection from the Queen's boat parade, now he goes to the Epsom Derby (inevitable pics from the Mail here http://www.dailymail...psom-Derby.html) and he's too ill to go to Elizabeth's latest anniversary party (how many does she have anyway?) He does look pretty much like he's the second most sickly Greek thing in the world (No. 1 being their economy). Also why the fuck is Princess Beatrice dressed like she's about to pick up an Academy Award for her role in the world's first ever talkie? I know it's horse racing and that always involves dressing up stupidly but even so, christ.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toast 16,137 Posted June 4, 2013 why the fuck is Princess Beatrice dressed like she's about to pick up an Academy Award for her role in the world's first ever talkie? I know it's horse racing and that always involves dressing up stupidly but even so, christ.... Princess Beatrice is notorious for her awful dress sense. The hat is very 1920s and would look good with the right hairstyle, but not with her long wavy hair (which does suit her). The dress is horrible. Seems to me he uses it as an excuse to miss anything that might be too tedious to endure (Jubilee concert last year, Christmas with the family etc) I wouldn't put it past him, and nor do I blame him.

She's just pissed off that Baz Luhrmann snubbed her for Gatsby. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bibliogryphon 9,573 Posted June 6, 2013 The Daily Beast is stoking the fire, though. Says concern is growing about Prince P. A bit of a non-story I think Peter Phillips is just being honest. I also did not think the Queen looked concerned more seething and furious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
