My all time classic was at lossie many moons ago.....
Waiting for the Duke of Edinburgh who was late....
SWO facing the parade is clearly getting agitated at HRH's tardiness.
"Where the f*45/k is he"... shouldnt be allowed"
Lad in fromt of me motions to SWO of approaching figure and hangers on....
SWO.. "Don't be stupid that isnt him"
Lad "I think you will find it is"
SWO "Stand fast im not blind"
Lad " It is him Sir... look again"
SWO.. swivels in real Fulton Mackay style........
"OH JESUS H CHRIST IT IS"!!!!!!!
I am sure HRH heard every word
Certainly we all did.. HRH smiled throughout along with most of those on parade
