On the way home we passed a very stern and serious Buckingham Palace guard standing very erect at his post

"Er, excuse me is the Queen at home? I am the SP and we are distant cousins, you know, except I have more LLS and blog followers than her , so she is a tad jealous of me but lets not go there now. By the way, have you seen a stray Skelly on the loose?I know you would mash him up with that weapon of yours, so I am sure they avoid you like the plague."

He stood very stiff and uttered not a peep, so I just took his photo very casually and moved on.
