The confidante was Elizabeth II’s lady in waiting for more than 60 years.

 


Cheers mate.  I don’t usually bother myself with trivial events like the news.

 

Now it has started to interfere with my understanding of some jokes on the joke thread, I might have to take an interest from now on.

I’m not sure how it drifted into the jokes thread, the jist is she asked some woman of colour where she came from, she replied, Hackney, Which didn’t seem to be the answer she wanted, so she repeated the question several times.

 

Strange, when I lived in East Anglia people asked me many times where I came from… I never felt offended.

Sorry, I don't watch much news, but do listen to a lot of radio when working on machinery.

 

It seems totally bonkers to me that someone would get offended because another person showed an interest in their story.

 

I meet people from all over the world, especially tourists in the summer months, and I love chatting to them, guessing where their accent is from, do they live in a town or the countryside, what's the landscape and weather like back home, what do they do for a living, what are the local industries.

A lot of the americans are big into the genealogy and will tell you all about their great great grandad who went over on the boat.

 

 

 

Anyway, that's all a bit boring and serious, so back on topic.....................
