On Wednesday morning I was a bit late going into work so to make it up to my hard working colleague Jennifer I decided to buy her a chocolate croissant from local Italian super deli, Valvona & Crolla. Just as I was about to go in, a big guy held his hand up and said ‘Just a second, please sir.’
I stepped back thinking maybe it was someone in a wheelchair exiting the store. But no! A small lady with very big bouffant hair came out, looked at me and smiled and I realised it was our very own Princess Anne.
After my Bangkok ladyboy near mugging last week I was naturally on my guard but everything was cool – her bodyguard stopped her making any rash moves. She moved swiftly on, obviously forgetting to offer me any kind of public service medal or elevation to the aristocracy.
I’ve never been as close as this to a member of the Royal Family before and I wondered what she was doing in Edinburgh. Turns out that if you go here they have a website which shows what Royal’s doing what. If you go here you’ll be treated to some quite appalling pictures of them all.
Work your way through the galleries and try not to be frightened by the outfits or wonder why supposedly professional photographers manage to take such crap pics.
I expect my knighthood’s in the post.

What a very nice colleague I’ve got – battling his way past bodyguards and royalty to get a scrumptious chocolate croissant just for little ole me!
