What would Princess Di have to say about the drone strike on General Soleimani? Oh I really want to know. "He was a second rate general, but a first rate lover". 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonD Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 When I heard that Harry was stepping down my first thought was that he was being shunted away like Andrew because the results of a DNA test were about to be leaked and they wanted to play it down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was fucking raging that Sunday because I had to go into study and all the fucking radio stations just played sombre shite all day. Still seething about it tbh. Bizarrely Radio one played an instrumental version of 'The Aloof's' One Night Stand on a loop. I think someone at the station had a sense of humour. Possibly Frankie Boyle's most irreverent joke about celebrating her death by 'having a gangbang in a minefield' didn't draw as much criticism as some of his other offerings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsr Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 I was but a bairn when Di died. I must confess my overriding response was indifference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boghead ranter Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 I was knobbing someone else's wife in the Normandy Hotel when Di's death was announced. That's my alibi, and I'm sticking to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problems with hundreds of years of inbreeding I guess, is that they all look too much like each other anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at the Scotland game at Pittodrie the day after her funeral, the match v Belarus that was originally scheduled for the Saturday but pushed back 24 hours, a squad of us had come up from Stirling and went out on the town that Saturday night and went to the game Sunday, travelling home after the match. During the minutes silence pre match for the nations princess blah blah I was being violently sick in the top tier of the Richard Donald stand, having overdid it on the Sambuca the previous evening, a fitting tribute in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 It also overshadowed the death of Mother Theresa. Another self-serving cow. Elton missed a trick with that one, Sandles in the Bin could have been a big hit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futureboy Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 My overriding memory of Diana's death: I had been out and on it. The announcement of what had happened was put out either at the end or the middle of an Essential Mix (Felix da Housecat if I remember correctly...cracking mix). I recognised the significance of it. Most present didn't. I got paid treble time for working doing hee haw the day of the funeral. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
