Encounters with RoyaltyMy good friend Jonathan once had to entertain the Queen whilst she had her portrait painted. The night before he was panicking as he didn't know any clean jokes.
Have you met someone royal? Are you royal? We'd like your story...

Twatted by Lord SnowdonRoyal Ascot, 1999: I'm on the inside of the course with all the great unwashed, the ones you don't see on TV. Thing is, Lord Snowdon was slumming it, in his suit, because we had a better view of the finish line from there. (The press gallery had an even better view, but he wasn't in there for some reason.)
So, it's a big race, we're all jostling for a place at the fence, his poncy Leica versus my working class Pentax. Well, he may have been near 70, but he'd been doing that for a lot longer than I had. He's bigger than me, and knows how to use his elbow. Ow!
