This morning.
Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip arrived by helicopter at the Giant’s Causeway in Co. Antrim where they were met by Northern Ireland’s first minister Arlene Foster (third pic).

I love when Philip visits anywhere. There’s always a good chance of a classic faux pas.
Some classics from the 2011 Ireland trip, which sadly don’t appear on this tabloidian list; http://www.irishmirror.ie/news/world-news/prince-philips-gaffes-96-dukes-6079006
He is a gas lad altogether.
Arlene Foster, guaranteed to put a black cloud on your day every time.
She’s getting great wear oul of that coat all the same
Interestingly, that probably gives here credibility in DUP circles. In some of the really Protestant towns there is numerous second hand shops. They are a prudent lot.
Curtsey – never looks like something a self respecting individual should be doing.
yeah, what’s wrong with shaking hands, smile and “How do you do, Mrs.Windsor” ?
“Heya Liz, love. Did ya find your way alright? Take off that jacket now and give it to Martin, there’s a good girl”
Surely “How do you do, Frau Saxe-Coburg-Gotha”?
genau :-)
Howaya Lizzy, your’e lookin well. A life of pampered luxury and privilege suits ya.
Ah leave her be,. it’s not often she gets to pretend she’s an English Lady and not a bible bashing regressive running a failed colony in a job share with a dirty native.
And she’s been so hard at work campaigning to ensure Northern Ireland either goes up in flames or sinks further into developing world status.
Touchay, as we say here in NornIrn
Look over here we have a big pile of stones in a pretty pattern.
Umm, yes, quite.
Lost for words.
A soft propaganda visit.
Queen: Now Arlene dear, don’t you be minding those nasty Provos with their talk of a united Ireland. It’s not like you encouraged them or anything. Once we build a wall around Mexico you’ll be grand.
And Scotland.
See all these ones curtseying, in front of the Queen.
At least Martin did not curtsey.
Or folk from UUP and Dup, old lads, who try and curtsey and then their knee locks, cause of dodgy knee and the fall over and have to be helped up and Queen is fed-up.
So next ones in to her, she be telling them, don`t for the love of, curtsey.
Peasants adoring their ruler. Pathetic.
We love you Queen Lizzy!
Drop the Lizzy part and you will settle into BS nicely Andy.
