Oi, you two. How do you fancy seeing out the year in Paris? I'm sending a car to pick you up.

All that effort to start a sockie account and that's the best you could do ?

I heard she'd gone to Germany to see about getting EU citizenship. Something to do with family connections...

Perhaps the dropping/passing on of royal patronages is not entirely unrelated.

I will be deeply saddened when we lose her. She has been like a rock all through my life. One of the greatest leaders the world has ever seen.

Nice to know the royals are just like us.

Anyone else noticed that not only did the Queen not go to the traditional Christmas service, but since then there has been absolutely zero news on either her, or anyone else in the Royal Family. Almost like the news agencies have been told to not report on her. Feels like she may be more ill than initially reported. Could she be the last big name to pass on in 2016?

They have reported that her husband was well. There is nothing to report on the rest of them apart from Mrs Tindell miscarried.

And the meedja have historical form for not reporting on rulers who are very ill, whether they are monarchs or prime ministers.

I reckon Camoron run away partly because he couldn't face the Queen giving him continued looks of "I told you so" every time he had an audience with her or saw her in person.

Looks like the corgis might be in need of a tune-up too....
