    That would be King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and King Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein?

    Recent comment from London-based writer, Imogen West-Knights, relative to UK citizens trying their best to ignore the U.S. election:

    However, she concludes by warning her peers that they cannot ignore Trump forever on the grounds that "when America s---s its pants, the whole world smells it."

    ....................

    A bit of a vulgar comment from a top writer, but isn't that the truth? <yikes>

    ECB apologises for Pope Francis Ashes post joke

    The England and Wales Cricket Board has apologised for a social media post joking that Pope Francis "loves the Ashes".

    A message on the X account of the 88-year-old Pope, who has been in hospital since February, was posted to mark Ash Wednesday.

    In response, the England Cricket account wrote: "Even @Pontifex loves The Ashes". The post has since been deleted.

    An ECB spokesperson said: "This was an ill-judged post and was swiftly deleted. We apologise for any offence."

    On Wednesday, the account of Pope Francis posted: "The Ashes remind us of who we are, which does us good."

    "It puts us in our place, smooths out the rough edges of our narcissism, brings us back to reality, and makes us more humble and open to one another. None of us is God; we are all on a journey."


    Dear Lord, lighten up everyone...!! :emoticon-0102-bigsm :emoticon-0127-lipss :emoticon-0141-whew:

    I'd like to add I have no personal knowledge of this particular character/person. I do have a colleague/friend who went to the same school, where I now believe he is considered a great hero.

    Not a bad effort by Grok but the end two should be a little bit more yellow and orange... at least they are not all black <laugh>

    I see Sam Quek has joined the ITV Racing Team.
    Can we expect more Sambals to match her comment on the 2021 Gold Medal Victory of Tom Daley in Tokyo?
    'Literally a Fairy Story'.

    She's a 2018 Olympic Gold Medal winner (Hockey). Very good athlete.
    She then started appearing on a lot of shows (Strictly etc.) and when Sue Barker and her team got the sack on that Sports Quiz she became one of the Team captains. Her husband is apparently rich and has horses.
    She was on the BBC Olympics team in '21 doing the early morning stint, hence her talking about Daley winning his Diving gold. Must admit I thought that should have been the quote of the year. What was she trying to say? Does she know the meaning of literally? I found it hilarious but then maybe I find things funny that other people don't.
