To be fair, she is only in this position because the other one pulled out. The campaign was expected to take nine weeks.

I feel sorry for The Queen who is having to come back to London because of this malarky. I bet she's well and truly ticked off.

I blooming well hope so.I have a gift card and Limitless. I don't trust Paul Donovan one little bit and am surprised to see he will be staying in charge. Staff are in the dark at present but I am digging to find out what I can.
