Ski tour operator goes bust Prince Andrew to lose deposit

Skiing, has anyone ever been on one of the holidays with this outfit?

As a young engineer, but one of, well, say, a wee bit of responsibilty, I was invited, "With your spouse, and any daughters younger tha 21 years old!", to a Royal Garden Party. (Just the once mind, once was enough for them!)

Well, I have sons, but no daughters, so off to the Palace we went, ski-wifie and I. Now, those of you who know me from J2, know that I don't do the important bits by half. Yes, I did wear a long coat, grey tie, and top hat. I had a premonition that it would be the one and only time, so best to do it right the first time.

Just as well. Hell, that wifie of mine, what a let-down she was. Oh yes, she was dressed to the nines, "You look lovely, dear".

What was the let down? Aye well, t'was the food. You see the royals don't eat muffins, barmcakes or rolls. Not French sticks, not semmels.

On offer was one inch square sandwiches. Judging by the amount on the table, I think that you were meant to take a couple of squares.

Twenty four!

I rejoiced in the iced coffee,

Please help me

With what?

Help me with that

The size of the sandwiches or what?

No, just the complete wibble.
