LMAO!

I thought this was a Bruce Jenner thread when I saw the headline!

[Theodore R.]

Interesting that someone can’t wait to get to the Church of England. I had read hardly anyone attends those churches.

[ChicagahAl]

I see the problem.

The steering wheel is on the wrong side of the car.

Obviously a manufacturing defect.

Poor quality control.

;-)

But parked in a palatial garage Is a brand new shiny red super stocked Jag

Well, as long as she doesn't take the Jag to Dead Man's Curve.

[Duchess47]

Most probably her security force has said if you drive you will not stop for anyone. At least that’s what I would say. Stopping the vehicle puts her at risk, assasination, bombs, kidnapping.

[Chode]

yet Hitlery hasn't been behind the wheel porlly over thirty years

[NRx]

That’s a very interesting observation. Royal security is a lot more low key in the UK than over here. But it does exist. I guarantee that there was an armed plainclothes cop sitting next her.

“Queer veers onto grass verge to avoid young family”

Need to put on my glasses.

[Rodamala]

a Jag?

Well, I suppose there are always exceptions...

[AppyPappy]

It’s my lawn and I’ll drive if I want to
Drive if I want to
Drive if I want to
You would drive too if it happened to you

The Queen was a very young girl and her crazy uncle was getting her to do it. Plus, in 1933 the Nazi coup had just happened and they hadn't yet revealed the true extent of their evil to the rest of the world.

Now, that crazy uncle of hers actually was a Nazi sympathizer.

I thought the headline said, “Queers veer onto grass to avoid young family...”

Thought, Well that was considerate of them.

lol

[ROCKLOBSTER]

What’s funny is; that’s exactly what I did. Guess we see the word queer much more often than Queen.

(which still can mean the same thing)

[NRx]

Edward VIII was, if not a traitor, at least a complete failure at almost everything he touched with the possible exception of being a playboy at public expense. The man had no concept of responsibility.

Thank God for the Queen’s father, George VI. He had no training for the throne since he wasn’t expected to succeed, and was cursed with a severe speech impediment. But he knew his duty and accepted the burden that fate placed on his shoulders. The stress of that burden (along with a 5 packs a day habit) probably helped send to an early grave.

"But when she found her path blocked by the young family, she clearly felt she did not have time to wait for them to get out of the way."

Unnecessarily snarky.

[CatherineofAragon]

LOL

[ROCKLOBSTER]

a Jaguar X-type estate

I've never seen a Jag Wagon. (jack-wagons yes)

In fact, I never even thought of a such a thing.

[colorado tanker]

I agree completely. And I thought The King’s Speech was a gem of a movie.

[silverleaf]

It’s a paved track wide enough for a car and.... It is her property!
