Zara Phillips. Not all that.

My company is her main sponser - not met her, I was out of the ofice last time she visited. I do see Ex-HRH Fergie in the office every now and then as we support one of her charities.

 

[Dave the OAP]

I was never allowed to meet Royalty when they visited various workplaces of mine. But my mother absolutely DETESTED Princess Margaret. An opinion gained from too much personal exposure to her.

Princess Margret exposed herself to your Mother

Mark L-F is a cock.

Odd, he wasn't when I saw him, and he was in the middle of training too. Still took the time out to have a quick chat about the upcoming World Champs in Paris.

Thought he was very down to earth and wasn't up his own arse or anything.

Land Rover is one of HRH's charities?

Makes sense, I suppose.
