And how often do we get a royal wedding anyway?

Yep, but as I say, if these palaces were all opened up to the public, we would get even more people turning up to see them.

Yep! My exact argument too. As if people would stop visiting Buckingham Palace or other royal residence. in fact, if these places were all vacant and the public were given more access, I dare say they would be even more popular as tourist destinations.

Grow up? Dear me, Grendel. Never ever had you down as the petulant, childish type. It was a light hearted comment and like I said, not having the Queen doesn't mean we have to have Blair. Heat making you grumpy? Sent from my LG-D405 using Tapatalk

I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that it's not compulsory to have Blair if we don't have a queen.

I think it will be a double celebration. New stadium announcement and my daughter having passed her Masters degree. She was 11 two weeks ago.

Be prepared for some really exciting news soon, though.

What, the tradition of killing each other and inbreeding to lay claim to the throne? :whistle:

I'd lost a lot of patience with him too recently, but he's still here, it's a new season and we have a new manager and therefore a clean slate is very much in order I feel. I'm sure if he doesn't do anything this season he will be gone anyway, so let's wait and see and give him our full...

Don't think anyone IS pointing a finger at the kids are they?

He's been a big disappointment, but at the same time, he's not as bad as some people have been portraying him on here. Let's see how he plays this season. Sometimes you need the right players around you to bring out the best of your game. I've stuck up for him loads in the past, but of late he...

I thought they were bloodsucking alien lizards?

Yep, what he just said. Block 20 is the very best view, but has zero atmosphere. 15-16 is where all the noise is generated from.

Anyone going tonight? Got my ticket, but now can't go as something urgent has come up. Shame. Should be a good night.

Need some backbone. If we lose another wicket it might be worth pushing Ali up the order. Buttler is a bit too cavalier. We need resilience.

Haven't seen the England wickets, but the word on the Beeb is that many were out to very poor shots. Shooting ourselves in the foot here.

The City's lack of any success whatsoever for so many years has been a massive factor. No-one can deny that. I've said before many a time, we are lucky we are still getting what we are getting after years and years of abject failure.

Ex bloody actly!

Course not, cos then there would be no conspiracy.

I would expect Australia to now go on and get 550 +. It's a good batting strip though. If England can get something like 475 then I feel the game could peter out for a draw. Unless England lose their heads they should be able to post a decent score themselves.
