The Picture of Elizabeth The 2nd
Serge
As Australia's Head of State, the Queen's portrait insolently appears on our
currency, a ludicrous situation I grant you, and one which is anathema to an
avowed republican such as myself.
However, be that as it may, when receiving some coins in change recently I
paused to examine the Queen's portrait more closely. One coin was minted in
1998 but she didn't look a day over 30, all the other coins were similarly
afflicted. I immediately checked the notes in my wallet and was aghast to
discover that here to, she didn't look a day over 30. Her portrait was
perfect in every detail, ageless no blemishes or wrinkles, no spots. It was
almost as if time had stood still.
It put me in mind of Wilde's "The Picture of Dorian Gray" but with the
central theme going terribly wrong.
Instead of the portrait becoming hideously grotesque and disgusting over the
years, whilst the subject remained flawless. Here we had the opposite. The
portrait was flawless whilst the subject became hideously grotesque and
disgusting over the years.
An epiphany?
Yes, but it stood out like dogs balls on a hot day!

Why do my subjects continue to treat me with such utter contempt?
I'm particularly annoyed with that wretched Colonial scoundrel Serge for
continually posting offensive comments.
His latest post has Mother inconsolable, and my poor dear Husband apoplectic
with rage.
If there were some truth to his assertion:
"Instead of the portrait becoming hideously grotesque and disgusting over
the years, whilst the subject remained flawless. Here we had the opposite.
The portrait was flawless whilst the subject became hideously grotesque and
disgusting over the years."
slander.
Every Friday night after Philip's weekly bath he comes to my bedchamber and
tells me how attractive he thinks I am.
I feel I may have to unleash Lord Such onto this insufferable fellow so that
he too will be forced into exile like Karen Horn, Annie Facstaff, Ppill and
the soon to follow Adrienne, the Australian hayseed and Sacha that totally
amoral and unprincipled 'business' woman.

Listen you stupid, dull-witted, senile old cow.
Are you BLIND as well as stupid.
Don't you know that Scream is a good personal friend of mine.
Are you dyslectic, you steaming, disgusting, filthy old toe-rag, why don't
you READ some of his posts. He hates your guts, he's only taking the piss
when he swears his loyalty. He wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire.
You make George the 3rd look like a bloody rocket scientist, if you weren't
an accident of birth you'd be mucking out shit houses for a living.

This is an obvious slander against by stalwart and Defender of the Crown,
Lord Such.
I refuse to be drawn in what is an obvious attempt to cause friction between
us.
Lord Such is, and continues to be, my strength, He is the complete gentleman
and a credit to his gender.
You Sir are a bounder and a cad.
