English sporting icon across the board, what has harry ever done in sport apart from neck gin n tonics at twickers?

That may be so, but at least he has an official capacity in regard to the sport - she (successful as she is) is just a random athlete - if you are suggesting her, then why not someone with a rugby league connection eg Ryan Giggs (watches/has played/son of former player), Bradley Wiggins etc

Not sure he's got a crush on Giggs and Wiggins. :giveheart:

Didn't he champion and head up the creation of an entirely new sporting event for injured veterans? Pretty good going by any measure.

Maybe you could set up a similar event for food bank users?

 

I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

I imagine his diary is inked in at least a year in advance for overseas trips. You guys do realise that he is a top-shelf prize target for every terrorist nutjob out there don't you? It's a big security detail to plan trips.

who? syd little?

Not a clue what this means.

That's some statement. Would love to see the stats you have to back that up. 

Anyway, back to the original thread; It's one thing nipping over to somewhere reasonably near if you have a couple of days manoeuvrability, but getting to Oz and back is more of an ask - royal or not. It probably wasn't worth booking a trip in advance on the off-chance England made the final.

Go on....I'll bite (i'm quite sure I will regret it)...how is Royal wealth half the cause of government policy on military action?

Two for the price of one, how about the Chuckle Bothers.

And they have experience. They've appeared on the Comedy World Cup on Channel 4.

They played rugby as kids; could have made it too. Forged quite a partneship on the field with their neat interplay.

At a conservative estimate, the UK economy get about £24 back for every £1 the Royals get from public funds. They are a good investment.

'You are a big posh sod with plums in your mouth, and the plums have mutated and they have got beaks. You make pigs smoke. You feed beef burgers to swans. You have big sheds, but nobody's allowed in. And in these sheds you have 20ft high chickens, and these chickens are scared because the don't know why they're so big, and they're going, "Oh why am I so massive?" and they're looking down at all the little chickens and they think they're in an aeroplane because all the other chickens are so small. Do you deny that? No, I think his silence speaks volumes.'

Watership Alan, 1997

I was wrong, the UK economy gets back over £1500 for every £1 spent. That must be the most profitable brand in the world.
