Saturday - A Royal Engagement.

[10ClarionSt]

This Saturday sees one of the biggest events of the year and we wait with baited breath to see which member of the Royal Family will present the
F.A. Cup to the winners, Manchester United. The Royal family are doing nowt special in the afternoon anyway, so instead of nipping out of the reception for a fag, The Queen could just nip down to Wembley, present the cup and get back in time for the sausage-based buffet later on. Why not?

will Wills helicopter up ? he is president of the FA

[1ozzy]

If Wills choppers up he could just toss it out the window with an apologetic "Sorry old chaps, rather busy today".

[murraymints]

not that far to heli hop !

Keep your chopper up Will.

//the winners, Manchester United//

that does rather conjure up a phrase that contains the words "chickens", "counted", "before" and "hatched", doesn't it?

'Prince William snubs the FA and fans to guzzle champagne with toffs'

Read all abaht it.

I think it's a lovely idea they have gone with - very fitting.

[Lie-in King]

Ta Mamya, I'd not seen that news & I agree, Jackie Wilkins is an excellent choice to present the trophy.

[10ClarionSt]

That's a great idea. Thanks for the link mamy.
