Prince Phillip

@Dextrous63

I always find it amusing when people get hold of official forms for them to fill in, printed in English, with the last page being a questionnaire about ethic origin written in a whole host of languages and texts. Only as an afterthought did it occur to the form providers to see if the recipient was actually able to read the previous 20 pages.

…which was in Braille!!

@Artangel

…which was in Braille!!

Or in “sign”

I wonder when forms are going to change the gender question options to a sliding scale version to allow for the full spectrum of gender fluidity.

Anyway, back to topic.

I have yet further to research him.

Nevertheless, he put himself in harms way…anyone who risks their life for another, is a hero in my eyes.

We have plenty of heroes in this country, especially at the moment with covid…they all deserve medals…anyone who lays their life on the line,for another,deserves one, imo.

Pauline we have been through all this at the beginning of the thread . You know before —when you were refusing to tell us what your idea of a hero was and what specific qualities Prince Philip had apart from serving in the war like any other young man of his age .

I still have a shot of sherry left if you feel the urge:lol:

Probably fair to say that she couldn’t find anything else, so has had to backtrack and hope nobody noticed.

Edit - just an observation, my opinion.

I don’t answer to you,Muddy, I don’t have to provide anything to you, and when I do it won’t be when you demand it, like you did, on and on and on.and on…like a broken record.

At times you are like a dog with a bone.

As I have said I will research it. Edward VIII.re: trenches.

Prince Philip.is my hero and always will be…A wartime “ Hero”…God Bless Him!.

All in your opinion, sweetie…now,please stop throwing your toys out of the pram…its embarrassing.

A rule for you ,sweetie…and a rule for everyone else.
Try standing up for yourself on your own as well as I’ve noticed,you always seen to get others involved…as with your post above, everything must be on your terms, otherwise out comes the “ rattle “
Try and accept people for who they are and not how you want them to be…just an observation/ opinion…,

I’d back out of here right now if I were you Pauline. I wouldn’t like to be bombarded like this!!

Unless you enjoy it of course.:shock:

I backed out last night,Carol…I won’t back out of what I believe in…enjoying it, has nothing to do with it…

I won’t be bullied imo ,by two posters into submission…or be forced…to disclose ,what I have already shared…they are the ones who I believe are enjoying it.

Look at his post further back to me…:shock:

Bullies,need standing up to.

[Muddy]

You haven’t disclosed anything !
You have just repeated what was said -not by you -at the beginning !

[pauline3]

@Muddy

I have disclosed ,only you aren’t satisfied ,with it…as I say you are like a dog with a bone.

I have repeated nothing,I’ve spent hours researching his heroism.

A very heroic man at that.

[carol]

Yes I’ve looked Pauline.

Like I said - I wouldn’t like it…

I expect you have and couldn’t find anything bar what has already been said .

@pauline3

Poor man, saw a picture of him, he is black and blue under his eyes,.i think he looks terribly frail…

I think Prince Charles made a wrong move…but his father may be dying…I know that doesn’t make it right, as many others are in the same boat…he is obviously prepared to take the flack.

I would imagine ,there will be quite some uproar from the public on this matter.

The hospital broke the rules,very wrong,when they have been lecturing us on covid… some are getting fined for this behaviour.

I think hospitals have amended their rules fairly recently regarding visiting relatives of people who are reaching the end of their lives. It is now possible for close relatives to visit their loved ones.

I did think when Harry and Meghan made their recent announcement, earlier than they would have done, that it could well have been because of wanting to steer clear of the serious illness of Prince Phillip, even though they are somewhat estranged from the royals. Who knows.

I have already disclosed what I found…who said anything about finding other stuff?

Any man who lays his life down for another, as he did, is a hero.:-)…

You said he wasn’t…or did I get that wrong?

Is he a war hero?

[Muddy]

Oh stop talking utter tosh Pauline.
If someone lays down their life for another they are dead not walking into 5 star private hospital 70 + years later .

Utter tosh…maybe you ought to stand up in a room full of war veterans and say that…it’s not true,he survived as did many others…he served on ships, that could have been bombed or torpedoed…

He put his life on the line…he could have quite easily have died in action.

He was a war hero, as were many others…

Ok to be a keyboard warrior…;-)…hiding behind a screen…

You can never take that from him…

I cared for a war veteran who survived the war,under enemy fire.laid his life on the line for his country.

Easy to say…when you have never been on the front line…or have you?

I wonder how many members agree with you, about him not being a war hero?

That would be interesting…I think you’re in the minority.

That’s true.

With respect Carol, if someone posts a load of unsubstantiated drivel then others are allowed to take her to task.

Yesterday, for example, I was accused of writing unpleasantries about the DofE. Only after pushing for proof repeatedly did the poster actually bother to check, realise their error and apologise.

Muddy and I have also been accused of “demanding” when, in fact, we have only been requesting evidence and clarification. No such undertaking was received, other snidey little comments were provided instead.

She’s receiving that which her comments deserve.

You are also receiving what your comments also deserve… from me…to you…

Awww, poor you being accused…maybe you ought to direct them to the religious threads…I had plenty of support in there,over your posts to me. right or wrong?
Or is that thread exempt.
All about you,you and you…

Only fair I defend myself…
