Fake News

[Khandro]

Headline in the Express says:

'Prince Charles breaks silence on baby Lilibet as he speaks for first time since birth'.

This is simply untrue, I've heard Charles speak many times.

[Mozz71]

I know it isn't "speaking" as.such, but wasn't there a press release from Charles congratulating the couple on Lili's arrival?

[Peter Pedant]

Yikes - you have put your glasses on !

I thought they must have asked HM - and she thought - well if I say no - what then ?
will they add Princess as a first christian name and go around saying
Princess Lilbet - you know like the singer called Prince

[Peter Pedant]

Oh Prince Chazz doesnt speak
he gives a lecture - or issues a short communique

god I cd be a prince ....

[Mozz71]

Peter //you know like the singer called Prince//

Also his real name - Prince Rogers Nelson

They get it right in the by line, sack the headline writer.

Someone was advertising a wooden fruit bowl, who do they think they're kidding? who would want wooden fruit?

[Mozz71]

Khandro - it's for a literal pine apple.

since "her" birth would have made more sense, it's true. But perhaps the headline writers had trouble squeezing the headline onto the internet.

Grinling Gibbons carved fruit so like nature that one was rempted to reach out and pick them
must have been painted

[Peter Pedant]

Reminds me of a scene in the film Airplane. On the flight a man is nervous of flying. "I am nervous" he said, "Oh dear is it your first time?", "no i have been nervous before" he said.

William Airplane is full of jokes like that.
