I suppose you mean 'Get a life' like yours. I can only say that perhaps they prefer their life just the way it is.

It was too cold for me to pop up there (just down the road)
But I did laugh at the female BBC reporter: 'We have people here from Norfolk (well there's a facking surprise)[:laugh:], from Suffolk, from Lincolnshire, from Leicestershire, from Befordshire, and two americans (what time did they get up to get a flight ffs) ' Then she blanked all the English to have half a dozen words with the septic tanks. and after that, a carefully planned rush past loads more English people to speak to a woman from the Phillipines. She moved so fast I never had a chance to see if there were any grevilles in the line, but given who she planned to speak to, probably not. Gawd bless yer Liz, pop in for a cup of Rosie on the way home. |

By:
Wesdaq. I can't see why my defence of people who are going about their own lives in a manner that THEY see fit can be connected in any way with 'forelock tugging'.
It wasn't me who was queuing to see The Queen. It's not of very much interest to me and it's not something that I, personally, would do. However, I wouldn't condemn anybody for wanting to. I wouldn't condemn any for sharing YOUR lifestyle, either. Whatever it may be. I only have a problem with the intolerant aspect. Everything else is fine! |

A load of idiots queueing up on Chistmas day dragging their kids along in the freezing cold just to see some unelected spongers driving past in a car I mean for f*cks sake get yourself a life, they could not give a flying t oss about those poor sods , it's embarrassing, I'm embarrassed for them, and the queens speech, it was so robotic and scripted for her it's painful to listen to her force her way through it, why the media gives them so much coverage in an age where they bear such little relevance I'll never know. The only reason why events like the jubille are so well attended is london being the dump that it is s full up on curious tourists, than yanks love them more than the brits, they should take up residence there, that great big f uck off palace they live in, I mean to think of all the homeless people that could make use of that, all for one and one for all eh , FFS

Hmmm. An interesting point of view. 'Dragging their kids along in the freezing cold'. Makes it sound like a punishment. Who knows...maybe it is? But at least it's got the kids out of the house and into a bit of fresh air. Quite an achievement for some these days. It's so nice that they could fit their little trip in to coincide with the Queen's trip to church. It probably made her feel quite special, too.
I enjoyed watching the carols from King's College this morning. Made me feel quite ethereal. |

naydam wtf are you talking about, people come from miles over and getting their kids up at stupid o'clock for parents benefits, course it's a punishment standing out in the cold for HOURS waiting to see people they don't even know

In which case the children may learn to stop being naughty. Some children might find it quite exciting, though. Standing there waiting to wave their little flags as the limousine silently glides by and The Queen smiles and waves in return. Sheer 'eaven to some little boys and girls. Sheer 'eaven!

naydam you are a good egg, that's all there is to it.

Imo I do think it's a bit sad to spend your xmas morning queuing to see a few royals. Your own family should be far more important to you than someone else's.
Gonna get up with your kids, watch them open their presents, have a nice breakfast, start the Christmas dinner. No thanks, we want to sit in the freezing cold for hours just to see a few people go to church. No logic there for me. |

Recall talking to a Chinese tourist in London during the Queens jubilee. She had a couple of small union flags and her excitement and love for the Queen made me feel rather ashamed at my indifference.

Tourists that have no royal family back home always seem to like ours.
However, such countries also seem not to tolerate parasites back home. Funny that. |

26 Dec 14 15:39 and the queens speech, it was so robotic and scripted for her it's painful to listen to her force her way through it. We gather you're not a Royalist, but it took you 8 lines of typing to say so. And you watched her speech, even though you don't believe in the Monarchy? What did you think she was going to speak about, football matches on Boxing Day? ![]() |

Many will queue to get One Direction tickets or to see Brad Pitt.
Each to their own. |

By:
it's six lines on my screen, what kind of person IS a Royalist? a very sad pathetic individual imo who needs a archaic figurehead in their life to to bring them comfort. I didn't watch her speech, I saw sections of it on the news channels, if she died tomorrow I wouldn't bat an eyelid, lived twice as long as Diana and then some but has never achieved a fraction of the love and affection the public showed her, that's because she has no personality, she exists for the sake of existing and will always do so whilst good little sheep like you keep propping her up

I'm an Atheist and Royalist if you can square that circle and neither female or gay.

I've never been so needy as to want a family, Royal or otherwise to project my inadequacy upon. Particularly a ruling class from from another age/tribe, Still, if you are feeling inclined to investigate, not really a feasible option for the brain-washed, then give it a go.

Tourists that have no royal family back home always seem to like ours. However, such countries also seem not to tolerate parasites back home. You should get your facts right first Wesdag. The Queen hands over approx. 85% of her income from her estate earnings and funds the extended Royal Family at her own expense. As regards people getting up early to see them at Sandringham, so what? I wouldn't do it but each to their own. BTW my parents took me and my sister to London to see the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace when I was 8. Still one of the most vivid memories I have from my childhood. |
