Queen Prepares For Christmas
They had cut down a Christmas tree in the forest next to the castle. The tree had been brought in like a trussed turkey and then it was placed in a large terracotta vase and placed in the hallway.
The Press Secretary had refused to decorate it as it was not in his job description. The Queen was in a strop that morning for other resaons, though. Meanwhile the tree remained in its natural state and really the Press Secretary thought that it was better like that. These baubles, the kitsch decorations and twinkling lights made it look like a gaudy clown.
The Press Secretary dreaded Christmas too and the the Royal couple were torn between nostaligia for Christmas broadcasts and having the enlarged family around them as they gorged on pheasant and other unfortunate birds who had had the misfortune to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Shooting parties indeed!
The Press Secretary picked up a copy of the underground paper 'The Royals Who Stayed'. It was a daring publication and the editors and staff risked imprisonment if they were caught. It now had a readership of 45,000 readers or so.
The Queen went into a BBB (Blame Bolshie Blair) when she saw the headlines. None of the NERD press had dared carry those headlines but the police had been to No.10 and had interviewed 'Call me Tony' in a delicate enquiry relating to allegations that certain honours (like knighthoods) had been sold in return for large sums which had gone into his party coffers.
"That is disgusting!" the Queen exploded. "How dare he sell MY honours!"
"Nothing has been proved yet - in any case it will all be shoved under the carpet - no NERD paper would even dare mention that story!" the Press Secretary laughed bitterly.
