HM Queens Christmas Message 2008

[Bushman]

Edward may have struck a dog fighting over a pheasant.

Not sure why the animal welfare types are not upset over the untimely death of the pheasant? Maybe the life of a dog is worth the lives of two, or even three, pheasants?

Bad boy Edward. Clearly unfit to rule. Great shot though. A real dead eye dick. The unworthy pheasants of England have been put on notice.


Prince Edward accused of beating a dog

Prince Edward is in hot water with animal rights groups after using a stick to break up a dog fight.

Edward, the third son and youngest child of Queen Elizabeth II, was pictured in Sunday newspapers waving the 1.2-metre stick at the gundogs.

The 44-year-old Earl of Wessex was pictured in newspapers with his shotgun under his arm with his stick in the air and then with it very close to one of the dogs' heads.

The dogs were fighting over a dead pheasant during a shooting outing at the Queen's private Sandringham estate in Norfolk, eastern England, where the royals traditionally spend their winter break.

A Buckingham Palace spokesman said: "It has not been determined that he did strike the dog.

"He broke up the fight with the dogs and pictures show him waving his stick around.

"We cannot confirm, however, whether he struck the dog."

Yes the poms don't tolerate a dog or a servant being hit.

Is the servant ok?

It sounds as if Edward missed the dog with the stick.

Did you never party ? How can Lizzy "control" her adult Grandchildren ?

NC I was never was in line to inhert the country However,

Gosh Golly Jeewizz These are only the potential future King of England that we had to bow down to come the future. May as well have Les Patterson on the throne.

Fine example of etiquette and style the English love. Only difference 800 Litres of 50% proof and 30 years. - Not much

Surely you could understand that setting an example as young as they are in the roles they inhert is a touch weighty? But then when you father aspires to be a tampon I suppose your choices are limited

Mate if you look carefully to the left of the labrador closest to HRH, you will see a white object on the ground.

This a servant's wrist with one of those dreadful wristbands promoting action on global warming or aids.

He is cowering in the heather as guilty servants do.

I believe HRH was beating the servant and not the dog.

Sir, you are an absolute rotter to suggest otherwise.

Silly me GG, of course a pathetic servant cowering in the fetal postion would be concealed in that long grass :horse:

Apology accepted , I'll let the family know next time I go on a shoot.

In fact Lilibet said to me last time we met

"its so difficult to get good servants nowadays, Garpal"

Garpaldog is a labrador so I'll have to put him in the kennels when Eddie comes over for the Mardi Gras.

I hope to goodness it was not Constance, she is so obliging and dutiful.

Green this evil man has brought more misery to HM, HRH Prince Charles and Phil the Greek than anyone else alive.

He is a rotter.
