"How's your Mum?"
"Oh, very well. You're going to be out before I take over."

or: "Do you need a Kingy-thing over here?"

Charles seem to be saying "Oh, goody" about something silly and childish.

[Buenchico]

I thought that Charlie would simply use the same question that he uses everywhere he goes: "And what, exactly, is it that you do?"

[stuey]

"As you can plainly see, Ladies and Gentleman, Obama is not providing a very warm welcome for Charles."

[Prudie]

Charles 'So who do you play for?"

[Jackdaw33]

Queen Mary of Teck (wife of George V) would habitually ask, "How is your poor mother?" She didn't mean poor in a sympathetic way but a literal one, as she believed that those who were not members of the aristocracy were financially poor.

[Buenchico]

Charles: "Didn't I hear a rumour that you're actually a Muslim? Does that explain why there's a model of a minaret in the fireplace behind us?"

[Jackdaw33]

Queen Mary was a bit of a magpie. When she went to visit, people would put all their valuables and ornaments out of sight. If she spotted an item which took her fancy she would praise it so long and so lovingly that her hosts felt compelled to present it to her as a gift.

[Ellipsis]

"And so I threw my shoe at him. But I will say this for George W ... he's excellent at dodging, and a jolly good sport to boot."

[stuey]

Jackdaw, that's no way to talk about one of your relatives!

[Jackdaw33]

My favourite story of Queen Mary is when she was at an outdoor function, either tree planting or foundation stone laying, can't remember which. The ground was rather muddy.The red carpet had been rolled out from the royal car to the site but was a couple of feet too short. When she reached the end of the carpet she steadfastly refused to go any further. An enterprising flunkey then ran to the back of the carpet and cut off two feet, which he placed at the front. When the ceremony was over he ran back with the offcut to place it in front of her car.

[DTCwordfan]

Was that the footservant who did that, Jackdaw?

[Buenchico]

Obama: "So that's agreed then? I get our CIA to eliminate the 'little obstacle' that's in the way of your plans to get the top job and you get me an honorary knighthood, four tickets to the FA Cup Final and a walk-on part in Eastenders. OK?"

[Jackdaw33]

You could say so. She certainly wan't going to muddy her boots.

[Quoi]

One is so excited. One just cannot hide it. One is about to lose control and one thinks one likes it.

[1ozzy]

No Obama, the song goes."Clap hands, clap hands till mummy de-thrones"

[Arksided]

Obama: "You'll never be the king of England"
Charlie: "I know, the Mrs hasn't decided yet"

[Arksided]

Yeah... thanks for BA (Caption), DTC.
