Ken, I don't know how to do the quote thing.
My entourage will be accompanying me. An oridnary mini van to pick me up is fine (the vehicle of choice for soccer Moms).
Who is going to re-do my home? Kickstart has my decorator tied up.
I guess I'll meet with that guy from Mozambique. But he has to pay for his own dinner. My kids need lunch money this week so funds are tight.

Good Lord  ??? We can't have the future Prime Minister collected by a common MINI-VAN! No I won't hear of it. We will just have to commission  the stretch Limo.

Oh by the way here's a picture of your residence Madam. I am afraid it is in need of some renovation but all that will be taken care of after Lawence has finished at Lady Kickstart's house. http://www.castlewales.com/conwy.html

Ken, have you thought about going to the Tower of London to get the royal jewels ready? You can't have all the new royalty showing up with no crowns or septors to give them!  Have one of the Beefeaters help you get them.     AlaisdairUK tried to get us somewhat back on topic, but apparently we are enjoying our new status too much!! :rofl;   I would be fine with one of the lovely black taxis to pick me up and would like to go straight to Harrod"s, please.   Thank you so very much!

Thank you Dear Ken for explaining but arent they similar to English Muffins?  Look like them and i eat mine pretty much the same way you described (but then again i do a bagel too) :P   

Susie English Muffins taste more like bread and have a different texture than than crumpets which have a kind of rubbery springy texture. and just taste different Yuk!!

Signing off till tomorrow, got to do my exit site dressing and get to bed.

The castle will have to do. I may be cramped.
Where is the nearest pub?
I didn't see a Wal-Mart anywhere.
I will now be known as "Prime Minister Crumpet".


Seriously the photos are beautiful. You live in a beautiful country. Hope to see it someday.

Castles are so drafty and cost a fortune to heat.  Don't you have anything closer in to town?  I hear that sprawling city London is causing quite a stir. You know with the indoor plumbing and all of that.

I would like afternoon high tea served as soon as we arrive at our lodgings.  Thanks. :rofl;

WHAAAAAT.!!! WT ROYAL F!!!!! :o Some people are never satisfied! :banghead; I can do the black taxi and Harrods, but seriously do you want to get me arrested banged up in the Tower, tried at the Old Bailey and publicly hanged drawn and quartered in Leicester Square?

However, since it is you Lady Paris and you are very well liked at the court of Kenneth no risk is too great to win the favour of your ladyship therefore I shall have my man commence digging the tunnel at once. :bow;

Hi Ken, I have been a little absent lately, just busy at work. I still have the odd post.

Cricket is my main sport, but I do follow football. I support Arsenal because one of my friends growing up was a Spurs fan. It was lots of fun to rag him about being a Spurs fan and me an Arsenal fan.

I'm looking forward to the Rugby World Cup next month and I even have a weekend trip to France to watch a game.

Hi Alasdair good to hear from you again. Having a friend who supports 'the enemy' is good fun unless you've aways been on the receiving end as I have being a Man City fan. So now it's nice to saver the moment now that we've made a decent start to the season. I'll enjoy it while it lasts! Arsenal of course ended City's unbeaten run last week.

I don't follow Rugby very much but I do like to watch it whenever it's on TV. A friend of mine watches Sale Sharks and is always saying what a great atmosphere it is at rugby matches. He says that there's no segregation of opposing supporters because there's never any trouble and you can even take alchohol onto the terraces unlike football where you risk your life from yobbo fans. I think this season I might just take him up on his offer and get down to some games. Lets hope we do well in the world cup, enjoy your trip to France.

Lady Kitkatz,
How about this then http://phototravels.net/wales/N0013/wales-conwy-03.html

Actually the castle and the house are in the same area of wales where I have a holiday caravan/mobile home not far from the castle and I'll be spending a week there starting Sunday 2nd. As I'm passing the castle I'll make sure everything is well prepared for Prime Minister Lady Crumpet's Arrival and that tea and crumpets be served immediately if not sooner.

Don't have a laptop so I'll continue this when I get back. Do you think we can squeeze any more out of it or shall we start talking about more serious things? Who know's maybe we can get even sillier. ;D

Did I mention serious stuff! Just kidding. See you all in a weeks time and then we'll continue with the nonesense.

Actually there's nothing to stop it going on while I'm away in fact I am appointing Countess Goofinina as my Princess Regent to the court of Kenneth to act as bestower of titles in my absence. She doesn't know this yet but she will when she reads this. :rofl;  ;D

Ken, a lady Beefeater at the Tower of London??   I think it should have been me, but the outfit isn't very flattering.  You go on holiday and look what they did while you were gone! Did they ask you first if this was acceptable?  I will say she looked very pleased with the promotion.  Maybe she can help you get the Crown jewels!  Hope you had a wonderful holiday. You were missed.
