amateur Posted April 16, 2021 Report Share Posted April 16, 2021 Good to read in today's newspaper that a duplicate special Landrover hearse is available, should the first one fail. Obviously the Palace know their Landrovers 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnfromUK Posted April 16, 2021 Report Share Posted April 16, 2021 I see some nasty little woke stirrer is raising the issue that among the 30 allowed for the funeral - all are white. https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/showbiz-tv/jeremy-vine-under-fire-viewers-20399015 Why do 'the woke' try to bring race into everything? There are 30 people - who are almost all family members. What the hell does he expect them to do? Leave out Prince Charles and Prince William and invite Diane Abbott and David Lammy instead to keep a racial balance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say, what do they expect, other than Megan (who can't fly due to pregnancy) the royal family is white, when they're only allowed 30 guests it's hardly surprising that white family members turn up. 1 hour ago, ditchman said: love to see ....the Defender 130 with the hood up outside the chapel with the caskit on with a gaurdsman ferreting about inside replacing the TD 5 wiring loom and bleeding it.............. and then the pall bearers pushing the landrover and dropping the clutch in 2nd gear........ christ that would be farsicle......... come to think of it .."they" would be better off resurrecting Prince Philip and burrying the landrover 😂😂😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But why make such a big deal out of it, just plays into her hands.

You’ve got to love his choice of transport A truly great man, a man I really admired but it seems I new very little about. since his death I have found out so much more about him and my admiration has gone through the roof. The whole idea of being taken to his resting place in a gun bus designed by himself was to be an unmistakable link to the country loving man he was and what he believed in but our illustrious BBC have chosen to report his mode of transport simply as a hearse that he designed. its enough to boil urine that a great mans wishes cant be acknowledged.

amateur Posted April 17, 2021 Report Share Posted April 17, 2021 I read this morning that the Landrover will be driven by REME personnel, so at least they ought to be able to fix it. Failing that, there should be sufficient sailors on hand to rescue the situation (ref Queen Victoria's funeral) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once she stops being quite so obliging in the bedroom I reckon he will have a day of reckoning and realise what he has thrown away. The moment she stopped him shooting you knew she would be trouble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
