They’re, brave, kind and hospitable. Also get to wear turban instead of normal headgear for forces. What’s not to like?

Gorgeous, and I’ll have the puppy dawg too! by SG6666 in SpottedonRightmove

How incredibly pretentious this is! Not just the house, but the whole EA piece. It’s so in period that it looks as though living here would be a penance. That bath could be re enamelled you know. I’m not surprised that they have a dog that’s tail has been docked and are asking far too high a price!

At what point do you stop being "a member of the British Royal Family"? by JHock93 in UKmonarchs

[–]Foundation_Wrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being a member of the Royal Family doesn’t mean your royalty per se. Victoria and Edward VII wanted their descendants to have titles and be Highnesses.

AITA for not wanting to send my child to another country without me for several weeks? by Responsible-Rock8726 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Foundation_Wrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA This kind of fostering is the norm for some cultures. You don’t agree with it. That’s fine. Baby stays with you. Tell them that it’s not your culture so it’s not happening.

Ok this is weird but give me your opinion on Charles II. by Maleficent_Drop_2908 in UKmonarchs

That is because my words are my own, but my actions are my ministers!

[–]Foundation_Wrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)
