Didn't realise we had a Queen posting in this thread. 🙂

I think she'd have said: We (Philip and I) will be watching. It would not be acceptable to allow the clarification to be separated from the term being clarified.

Yes, it is called the Royal 'We' and it is a slightly darker than usual on account of all the Pimms.

This is a well known fact amongst us Royal watchers who hide amidst the grouse beaters.

You're right, Andy. I got to get my butt in gear and try to figure out the new normal. I really do. Thanks.

Nordlys is still very much alive. Describing her as "departed" probably wasn't the best choice of words.

Glad to hear that Nordlys is still alive. In what way is she "departed"?
