Andrew Demands ...

[smurfchops]

Andrew demands to dress as full Admiral at funeral. Daily Mail today. Thoughts?

[aelmpvw]

ooops, don't mention vice . . .

[andy-hughes]

davebro - // I don't think anyone with similar service to Andrew ever became a Vice Admiral. //

Indeed - but they are not sons of the monarch, who has the power to award such roles.

[emmie]

it would seem foolish to wear a uniform you are not entitled to -

/// Harry Markle has form dressing up in uniforms mind. ///

Made me chuckle :-D

[emmie]

funny enough i thought it was bad taste.

[emmie]

obviously we don't all think alike. thank heavens

[smurfchops]

Our poor Queen has enough on her plate without his demands. Perhaps Charles should put his foot down and have a word....

[emmie]

she did her first engagement since Prince Philip passed away, must hurt even so

[ladybirder]

Totally selfish of Andrew to put the Queen in this position when she is newly widowed. Not surprising though from such an entitled person.

[Canary42]

Andrew's me-me-me attitude must be a great pain to HM, he really is a selfish guy with no consideration for his Mum at what must be a very difficult time for her.

She should make him wear sackcloth and ashes ;-)

[ToraToraTora]

she'll let him dress up if he wants, no sweat!

[Jackdaw33]

As he is not a full admiral the Queen would have to make him one beforehand.

[Everhelpful]

Jack,She might not have enough wool. Sorry,couldn't resist it.

Just like a load of Children really. Lets play dressing up.

Each member of the RF holds an honorary title in one of the armed forces.

[emmie]

they are all entitled, every one of them has served in the armed forces, at some time or another,
have you ever done so gully ?

[gulliver1]

12.23 Yes, have you.? Emmie.

[emmie]

i was in the Brownies and the Girls Life Brigade, i did consider for a time joining the services but my talents led elsewhere.
what were you in?

[bednobs]

how did "he told his mother" turn into "demands"?

Media magic.
