Well he didn't! Seamus O'Bama's over here in England now pretending to believe in something bizarre called the "Special Relationship" whatever that means. Anyway, he's having a fish and chips supper washed down with bottles of Malvern water with Liz this evening at Buck House where he's shacking up in a spare room for a couple of nights with his missus who, so far, has managed to keep her mitts to herself when in the presence of HM, according to the Beeb TV news.

The reception the O'Bama's received on the sunny streets of London Town today was mutedly lukewarm at best.

What have Murphys and Beamish done wrong? No high falutin' visitor ever gets served one of them.

Baiting is also bad here. How far IS it to get over yourself anyway?
You can do it, I know you can.

What does that mean in English?
Sweet baby Jeebus, can't a person say anything here without running afoul of you?

I think you just confirmed what Octang said. You can't say a thing on here against O'Bama without all the guns coming out.

No, I think there is a personal problem.

I'd like to mention the rather odd outfit Michelle was wearing when she met the Royals. Maybe Beatrice and Eugene helped her choose it.

I am pleased to see Beatrice raised some money by flogging off her headgear. At least some good came out of it. What a sight!

Except for the pink jacket, which I have to agree is out of place, well in my opinion.... What is wrong with the dress?

OMG you really don't know.

Normally she looks quite nice but the outfit yesterday was totally out of place for a daytime event...plus it really didn't do anything for her. I noticed she changed to visit the Camerons.
