Random Irritations

[patricks148]

That’s how you saw it, is that due to pre-conceptions, basically however she would of spoken/sat/answered it would of made no difference to what they think of her.
I’m not sure what the public expect from these people in interviews.

I'v no pre concieved idea's on her at all, but I'm no fan of the Royals full stop, so maybe you are right about that but this was a program about the good work they had done on this trip but this was made all about her. I'm sure its a pain in the arse having your dirty linen airied in public, but wasn't it her family that produced the stories... but i don't see her or any of them thanking the britsh public for funding the life of Luxury and privilege they enjoy

I think she is getting an unfair hammering in the press. She seems like a very decent person who is trying to help people in her new role. The press have taken against her and Harry for whatever reason and here we are.

If you were advising them would you have told them to do the interview last night? Any interview for that matter? IMO they would be better giving no interviews, do their jobs, smile, keep quiet. Rise above the press, even when they want to shout out. People like the royals best when we don't know their thoughts or opinions. The moment they start making statements it gets the back up of the press and then eventually the public. That may be unfair but that seems to be the system so why try to fight it? A heads down approach is likely to lead to a calmer existence.

They can’t win, you’ve answered it yourself, speak - looking for sympathy, stay quiet - not genuine or out of touch with the people.
For me, we have to accept they are simply people like you and me and none of us are perfect.

I'm not sure we need them to be 'in touch' with people. They are Royals, they live a ridiculously priviledged life. We know they are not like us. People like the Queen, Princess Anne for some reason that escapes me. Largely because they say nothing, turn up at events, make small talk, smile, wave and leave. Do that for a while, keep their heads down.

Harry in particular looks like he is struggling right now and a bit of calm would do him some good. Why highlight a rift with his brother for example? That was an odd move.

First day back at work after a fantastic restful holiday in Poland and beeped by an impatient "lady" BMW driver at a mini round a bout where I was stopped at waiting for it to clear so that I could negotiate it without blocking it.

I HATE this country.

Then emigrate, if it's that bad here.
We're here for a good time, not for a long time.

Weather forecasts! Spent the morning micro-tining, dressing and overseeding the bowling green this morning on the 80% promise of rain this afternoon. The sun is still out. If there's none by midday tomorrow I'll spend a couple of hours hand watering.

See this touches on my random irritation. Infact it's not of the day , or of the day

The press are disgusting in this country . Don't know why anyone believes anything they say they twist everything and hound people

Must be true though I read it in the paper

Trying to break up an old double divan. Jeez this thing is well constructed. Springs and kapock everywhere. Still got the matress to get rid of.

Looking at the radar out of Morocco Brian, you might get 24 hours of it. Are you getting the flash bangs too? Its forecasting another mini flood.

Waiting for the completion of the sale of my flat to go through while I'm on the other side of the world. Sods law said it was going to be finalised while I was away lol.
I keep checking my bank balance on the phone every 5 minutes 🤔🤞

I've tried time and time again to try and pursuade the wife, but she likes it here.
I've even shown her a beautiful four bed monster house in Poland, that costs less than ours, with a back garden I could hit a full PW from one end to the other, and countless others in Portugal (algarve) and still no.

Being told three weeks ago that our firms contract with our one and only customer (they were informed on the 4th September we've seen a copy of that letter) will not be renewed (ending 31 Oct) and still we have heard nowt about redundancies (which we know will happen).

Grunting men doing weights in the gym. Was the worst it's ever been today. One sounded like he was going to puke up on each lift
