poohbear 1,360 Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 I wonder what a bash like that really costs?...Not the snap..that's just left overs from school dinners given fancy names,and the wines from Aldi. No...the real cost,maintenance of all that clobber on the tables and the bill for flowers. Then there's Special Branch..got to check out all the plonkers...make sure none have been caught short giving the stable boy a quick shag,or liable to fart within sniffing distance of Her Maj. John Major was there...wonder if Edwina was invited? Must cost us a bomb. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
