    Looks like HRH Duke of Edinburgh has just blown his no claims. 97 years old and still driving. That can't be right.

  3. Bookies are rubbish. I wanted a price on David Attenborough being eaten by a lion on his last documentary shoot - no luck at all.

    I saw the queen driving the other year at the Windsor horse show.a big Land Rover discovery. Big Phil was a gate judge at the carriage driving and she drove in to deliver his sandwiches and a flask of tea. Upon leaving she did a rather difficult three point turn. I was really impressed.

    Just an aside. I read today that Liz is the only person in the UK who doesn't need a driver's licence.

    Here’s a story,I shouldn’t really be telling it but anyway. My mate the guy that rides Trev used to be involved in carriage driving and his boss was best mates with big Phil. He was always in trouble. His boss used to provide drivers and footmen for royal ascot and my mate was a footman.so anyway he fulfilled his duties taking the carriages in and had a few hours to spare so went to the pub got pissed up and pulled a couple of treacle’s and had threesome in the kazi so turned up late for work and was promptly sacked. Well anyway , when his boss calmed down was reinstated. The day after he was a footman on another coach. They were told never to look at the people in said coach and was at the back. There was a minor female royal facing him and he could see right up her skirt. You know what it’s like he couldn’t keep his eyes of it. Anyway it was noticed by someone and a complaint was put to his boss and he was promptly sacked. Twice in three days. He worked for his boss for several years and was often in big phils company. Another time he was in the Horsebox getting an almighty bollocking from his boss. Loads of fs and c s mid flow there’s a tap tap at the door. His boss opened the door and who was it? Big Phil.

    This sort of 'teasing' takes me back to my mid-teen years when consorting with the young ladies who attended various private, fee paying and girls only schools in Edinburgh!

    At least give your fellows a clue; hair colour, shape and parents?

    If I was a rich and powerful old man (as opposed to just an old man), I would be very wary of attractive girls making out they fancied me. They would either be looking to marry me for my money or would find a way to sue me. Give me a poor, wrinkly 75 year old any day
