Life at the Palace
« on: March 27, 2011, 12:38:31 PM »
Thought I'd start a formal thread for those interested in being part of court life and the resulting "play".  The give-and-take and puns, putdowns, etc. won't be limited to this thread (as if anything can be limited at I2.) 

Anyway, as far as I recollect we have in residence:  Queen Victoria (me); Prince Albert; the Princess Royal; Lady-in-waiting Lady Weeble; Ambassador to the Low Countries, Lady Hykeaswell; and Admiral of the High Seas, Lady Sea Tart.  I've recently added a Knight Errant (when I can find him since he's always running here and there errantly), Sir Midlifeaspie.

If anyone else wants to be part of the rigamarole, let me know.  Otherwise feel free to ignore this thread.

Too busy with the task of reverberating though everyone's head to take on any further responsibility at this time, though thanks for the offer.

Lady Butterflies, would you prefer to oversee the maintenance of the Palace, since you've so much renovation experience?  Be in charge of Ireland?  Run the Kirk of Scotland?  Something else?

I'll be the overseer of the palace renovations. I think that would be a good job for me.

Thank you Your Majesty

I enjoy being a Lady-in-Waiting! When I have to wait for the Queen, I just gently wobble in place!   :snowman:

I am 'Bodaccea Queen of the Iceni Tribe' and as i am sure you are aware i have my own
drunken celtic subjects to deal with. :beergrin:

However i do feel in these modern times it would be prudent to join forces,

Therefore, it is with much honour, i say to thee
'At your service Ma'am'

Please let me know, at your earliest convenience, what role i should serve her majesty.

Obviously, a domestic role would be out of the question.  I would, however, be honoured
if you would care to perhaps think of my palace as your 'get away retreat'   or 'holiday home'
I can assure you i am aware of the trials and demands of being titled 'Queen'

I shall await your response in eager anticipation.

Decided to delete what I was posting because someone else did it first.

Guy Fawkes was really cool.

Hard to be a terrorist back then when you needed ½ ton of black powder instead of some kilo of C4.  :orly:
