Today I should be mostly CLEANING ALL THE THINGS because lovely (and very very tidy) Judith is coming for tea before we go to the 2nd stage of horse ownership course.

Instead, naturally, I am being hugely amused by the #thegoveboat tag on twitter over the suggestion that we get the Queen a yacht as a pressie Some of the comments on that are also comedy gold. Current favourite being getting it and tipping Thatcher over the side.

But why stop there? Think of the fun we could have lining up the fuckers and chucking them off. It could be like x factor/big broter. Vote 'em off and PLANK!
Who would you send over the edge? I'd like to send Nadine Dorries off to start with. And... pretty much the entire NI Assembly now I think of it.

Can we just get her a carriage clock and a bunch of flowers, and sod the massive celebration? It's the thought that counts, after all.

Impact on daily life, my arse!

(Am not anti-monachy per se, just anti-paying-millions-for-stuff-she-can-bloody-afford-herself!)

Well, what do you give the monarch who has everything?

Yup, Nadine Dorries would be one of the first for me. If restricted to UK politicians. I can think of a few here too, especially if I can go back in time!
