      How about Little John and a golden carriage?

    LOL isn't the monarchy a bit out dated in today's society? There have to be other ways for the monarchs to gain a pay check, taxing the people on top of taxes imposed by Britain's elected government's taxes doesn't make much sense to me.

      That is why I am trying to rent the Monarchy out, to generate some income for Britain, I'd only take a small commission myself.

      I've just had a word with the Queen. Because it is you Majik we would be prepared to get the Royal Mint to do a print run of pound notes with your avatar on. This offer is only available today.

      LOL I'm not sure that the royal mint would go for having my avatar on any pound notes. Besides, isn't the one pound note actually a coin? I remember my last trip to Britain and I don't remember seeing any one pound notes, I think it's a coin like the Canadian Loonie except smaller and a little heavier.

    PLEASE!!!! Somebody take up this generous once in a lifetime offer!
    @Majik, yeah we don't have pound notes now we have a little gold pound coin.
    1. clioandme
      But those little coins weigh about a pound.

      Yeah it's true if you have a load in your pocket it's like walking on the moon.
