One less screwed-up, over-priviledged, corgi-fellating, Nazi-loving, gin-sodden fucker in the world, then. Yeah, I suppose I shouldn't be so horrible, can't go around wishing people dead, blah-blah-blah, but... sod it, I couldn't give a toss.
She was okay. it would be interesting to see Britain without her. It would be interesting to see a Britain where she never existed. I think you can't hate someone just because they were royalty. From what I saw, she seemed to be a pretty nice person, and never once sucked toy dog dick.
Yeah. And you've got to say she was brilliant, the way she kept going after all those fishbones. I mean, you don't get to that age without having something going for you, eh?
After that false alarm at the beginning of September, it's nice to have the real thing, isn't it?
Word of warning- Don't... I repeat... DO FUCKING NOT... buy a newspaper today. (I've read 'em all at work, and the bitch is everywhere. Avoiding all media might be a safe option, judging by Radio 4's royalist hijacking yesterday evening...
Although I'd like to point out- there is no evidence that the Corgis shared her Nazi-friendly attitude...
What a great year this is turning out to be. First Margaret pops her clogs, lightening the taxpayers gin bill, then Thatch is silenced by doctors orders, and now the Queen Mum buys the farm.
Funnily enough... I heard about the Queen Mum while in a state of semi-consciousness (trying to sleep on a sunny day cos I was on the nightshift) and when I got back to sleep, I dreamed the Pope had gone an' all.
I'm just hoping he holds out till November (my birthday) cos one of my mates had Margaret dying on his, which beat my previous record of Thatcher resigning... I was counting on the Queen Mum to hang on until then, so the Pope it has to be...
And i'd been looking forward to last nights showing of Becketts' Krapps Last Tape on C4 all week...had the video set and everything...inconsiderate old hag!!
At least the BBC have the good sense not to cancel this afternoons Herbie Goes Bananas so my Easters not entirely ruined!!
One fact sticks in my mind from the unavoidable media coverage...her husband died in 1952. How mad is that? Being married to someone from history...wow, if there is an afterlife they will so have nothing to talk about...
I got hit for cheering and shouting 'At last!' when the newsflash came on the telly yesterday.
As one of my friends said when she realised what the news was - "I was so worried for a little bit. I thought Yasser Arafat or someone important like that had died."
Anyone else think Gary Flitcroft is the luckiest bastard ever? (He's the Premiership footballer who has fought for a year to avoid his name going in the papers. The ban on naming him was lifted at midnight on Saturday - and shortly afterwards, the Queen Mum dies. Hmmm...)
Also - have you seen what comes up first when you type Queen Mother into Google?
Think the powers that be will go for a double like Mother Teresa/Di? I think they should save PJP2 for someone higher up than an ex-queen.... maybe they should get QE2 and PJP2 to go together in a few days?
