I've got an old one that is already tied, which I use when I can't get out of it. It's a horrible black thing (handy for funerals) and I haven't a clue what knot is in it. I just know I mustn’t let it come out or I’m in trouble the next time I need it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-38322507122363099352011-04-26T23:24:24.310+01:002011-04-26T23:24:24.310+01:00Hmmm Danny.

I think Blair should have been given something like that by now (they don't get it right away), but to her credit Mrs Blair would be very against any title things. She doesn't believe in monarchy and refused to do any curtseying or deferring when they were at Downing Street, the one thing I salute her for.<br /><br />As for Brown, Jeez, what would you give him? The Order of the Boot (up his backside)<br /><br />Well, they gave the honour to that old fool Thatcher so I suppose anything is possible.<br /><br />It's clearly an excuse. It's a semi state occasion and by rights ex-prime ministers should have been invited.<br /><br />The Windsors are Tories. <br /><br />Just had a thought though; it could have been a quid pro quo from Cameron that if he let the Queen keep all the money from the Crown estates, she would refuse to invite Blair and Brown to things... I wouldn’t put it past Cameron to propose it or Charlie to agree so that he can get his sticky mits on more money.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-58140590070478036312011-04-26T17:14:11.758+01:002011-04-26T17:14:11.758+01:00Revised from previous.

Which of course begs the question. Just why aren't the former Labour Prime Ministers Knights of the Garter like their Tory counterparts? An even bigger swipe at Labour than the lack of wedding invitations I'd say.Dannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14450203101640592230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-73403677856459622942011-04-26T11:31:03.546+01:002011-04-26T11:31:03.546+01:00Oh, and another thing.

Seems to be a sloppy old four-in-hand, currently fashionable among the young and hip, but definitely not suitable for an old Windsor.<br /><br />And, contrary to popular belief, NOT named after David, Prince of Wales (aka Edward VIII). In fact named after Edward VII. <br /><br />I do love Wikipedia. ;-)Dannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14450203101640592230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-49224439074684804052011-04-25T23:43:45.536+01:002011-04-25T23:43:45.536+01:00They'll be promising not to over-tax her on Ba...They'll be promising not to over-tax her on Balmoral, and to let her have the palace, as long as none of her odious children, with the exception of Anne, come up to stay.<br /><br />Although I've heard that Alex and Charlie are friends.
