Someone sent me this photo, lovely shot of a Berlin morning. Gorgeous sky, the iconic TV tower (everything in Berlin is ‘iconic’, got more icons than Vatican City), and some gel in the most un-vegan attire imaginable. Who looks familiar. Hmmmm. Holy shit! That’s my daughter!!! The one who ran away to Berlin 2 years ago. I’d completely forgotten about her. As ya do. Out of sight, out of mind. Ruth? Rebecca? Rasputin? No, its Rachel!!! Last seen in Petra in November. But coming home tonight. Lucky we’ve changed the locks.

Now here’s a funny thing. The Canadian newspaper The Globe and Mail (sounds tacky just by the name) has stated in no uncertain terms that Harry and Meg are welcome to visit their country, any time they like BUT; they can’t live there. It’s wrong. Constitutionally illegal, immoral, disgraceful and an abuse of Canada’s right to… to… to be Canada!!! The kind’a miss the point that Harry hasn’t gone there to claim the throne and be the King of All Canada! He’s going there for precisely the opposite, to get away from royal bollocks generally. Though apparently straight into Canadian bollocks specifically.

They’re now talking of the Royals role in their country, that Canada is part of the Commonwealth but not actually ruled by anyone other than their own democracy, blah, blah, blah. As if it is some kind of foreign invasion by a warlike Prince to take over their land, subjugate their people, re-start a feudal system of tithes and steal all their polar bears for his own titillation and consumption.

Harry and Meg are going there for a quiet life AWAY from Royal shit. That’s the whole point. Their presence in Canada will not alter Canada’s political nor executive structure in any way, shape or form. They just wanna live there. Raise their little baby. Walk the frozen streets. Eat whale meat. Be just like any other Canadian. But with a platoon of security guards. They have no ‘eye on the throne’, mainly because Canada doesn’t have one.

So the Globe and Mail should just go away and leave them alone. They get enough shit over here. And no-where else to go.

Happy Friday, it actually appears to have stopped raining for a minute or two!!!
