One, a delicate little planning issue and the other an increasing awareness of her own mortality. Well, when you get to ninety-three you're bound to feel nervous, especially finding Ludo, her vile nephew, poking around in her Louis Quinze escritoire looking for her will.

| Rev Rob |
So to kill two birds with one stone the Dame plans to invite 'jobbing' vicar and councillor, the Rev Rob Thompson to partake of 'tea and fancies' at the Ritz so she can deal with her planning issues and matters spiritual.
Cllr 'Buffy' Buckmaster is a great fan of Rev Rob and appointed him spiritual consultant during his mayoralty(unpaid)
Buffy tells the Dame that the Rev is far from being a stuffed shirt and enjoys nothing more than an evening of 'trashy' TV.
One hopes nothing risque.....
Does anyone know who Mrs Thompson is?
ReplyDeleteIs that a homophobic comment?
DeleteAs far as one is aware the Reverend Thompson is not married.
DeleteIs this a homophobic comment?
That would just be a statement of fact.
DeleteWhat a strange post. Rev Thompson is a good egg. We hope the Dame is not about to expose some ghastly scandal.
ReplyDeleteHe is pretty much universally respected by his Labour colleagues as well as those of the other groups. He has the wonderful ability to be politically principled but not to make things personal.
Delete'Tea and fancies' - Oh, I am so jealous. The only thing we get is this or that left over at the posh Holland Park eaterie...
ReplyDeleteDoes your sette wear ties? If not, the Dame can hardly include you in her Ritz party. And what would the Rev say if Sad Badger sat next to him. He's a man of delicate inclinations and would object to your badgery odour
DeleteOf course we, the males, wear ties should we attend formal dos. And, always around the Belvedere, to keep up the pretentiousness of the place. Look quite dashing, me thinks. As for the Rev, he should remember that we may find his Butch Guy after shave cologne quite offensive too. As for our badgery odour, it is musky and I understand that not only the Badger girls get turned on by a whiff..
DeleteWho has the poor padre upset?!
ReplyDeleteHe is not flavour of the month with Saint Emma.......
DeleteDoes he doubt her sanctity then?
DeleteIs he a heretic?
I thought they were a couple .
ReplyDeleteRumour has it they were at it like cats and dogs the last Labour Group meeting......
DeleteNope - Labour group very united at the moment .
DeleteUnited against Saint Dent Coad?
DeleteIf I stick on a clerical collar and talk to you about death will you take me out to the Ritz?

Do you want to be reassured that, despite everything, you have been a Good Dame? Do you feel that some repentance will do you good? St Mary Abbots send food to the Delgarno food bank every week, you could put your gin budget towards buying your contrition and I will, of course, absolve you.
Planning: well, you know how that works in RBKC.
Rev Robbie Thomson is stuck up there in the very North of the Borough with some very rough trade. Everything that I have seen and heard gives him top marks in every department.
ReplyDeleteIf EDC does not like him then it is her loss.
Thomson did not have a beard last week at a public meeting. Did the Dame use an old picture? Are we talking about the same person? Is there an occasional disguise maybe?
