Is it that book by the woman who wrote the Adrian Mole books? I've not read it, but the premise is that the royal family are sent to live on a housing estate like normal people.

I wish I could remember the author and book name though
Oh! that's Sue Townsend and I can't remember the name of the book either. Great guess, but that's not it.

She'd like this book, too, once someone guesses it! Perhaps poohbear will rescue us.

Can you do the voice of HM discussing her grandson's holiday snaps?

I'd give it a go, though my Prince Charles is the charm .

Is this a non-fiction book, or an imagined history?

Knowing where you spend your own recent holiday, am I to infer your having left something substantial there?

I thought this was a referral to the current headlines that the current Younger Son was photographed in the altogether. In Vegas. Playing strip pool at a swimming pool, or something. snicker! I haven't look at the shots, but I agree he's a handsome youngster.
