Kings Queens& Nicknames

[Peasblossom]

I know i've asked this before, but I really can't fathom this one out.

11 I'm late i'm late for a very important date was NOT his cry. (3 words)

Any help really appreciated. Thanks

[emmie]

it's from Alice in Wonderland, The White Rabbit, not sure of the reference though to Kings and Queens.

There was an ever ready No not the battery. Somebody the ever ready

[emmie]

Ethelred the Unready do you mean?

Ethelred the Ever Ready is a Harry Potter character.

It will be something the First

[emmie]

this is who i was referring to, not sure it helps at all.. x

John 1 of Portugal - with the good memory

[Georgiesmum]

Edward the unready

[hc4361]

Unready doesn't fit the clue.

The king we are looking for wasn't late.

[emmie]

Brenden, could well be, i was thinking of Kings and Queens here in Britain.

[Peasblossom]

Thanks to one and all, i'm still baffled. The fact that the NOT was in capital letters, suggested it wasn' Ethelred the unready, unless i am reading toomuch into it.

Are the answers Kings and Queens of Britain?

[emmie]

I think Brenden's answer is the most feasible.

[hc4361]

I think you're right, Peas. It will the First, I think.
Unless there is a Prompt, Timely, Ready....

"Punctuality is the politeness of Kings" -a saying attributed to Louis the Eighteenth og France.

Sorry-of France

[hc4361]

Very good, quinie

I googled "Which king liked to be punctual?" and got that answer.Not really sure that it 's the answer to the clue-I've checked lists galore and had given up.

I posted that answer of King Louis XVIII a while back, not doing the quiz and knowing the requirements but someone came back and said it was Kings and Queens of England.

[quinie]

Hi FoxLee2,I didn't see your answer before but it sounds feasible.I asked if the answers had to be British but Peasblossom didn't answer.

[quinie]

Just checked-it is English kings and queens
