    Bully you? Just a term but maybe subconsciously I was trying to say something?<laugh>:emoticon-0148-yes: But In my view you have disrespected this thread. And that’s a shame.

    Fair one, I'd never heard that expression before but it makes more sense now <ok>

    We'll agree to disagree mate. Not the end of the world.

    I see it’s wall to wall coverage today & everything has turned onto the Queen / monarchy. Me thinks you’re going to have a fab day.

    I'm off for a walk in rural Pembrokeshire shortly so agree it's going to be an excellent day. Be a shame when I'm home tonight though.

    Didn’t know this - When a new monarch takes to the throne, the royal profile on the coins is switched to face in the opposite direction. Edit: @Libby at least you know you’ve always got them in your pocket! <laugh> :emoticon-0148-yes:

    When I was young and foolish I was an anti monarchist but once I learned that the Queen's favourite prime minister was Harold Wilson I knew she was the one for me. God bless her.
