Father of friend (to Princess): Why do children like television so much? It’s not real is it? It’s not got real people like here (gestures expansively round bar).
Further father of friend (listening in): But real people are booorrring.
Princess: And television has programmes specially devised for children.
I haven’t commented much lately, but just thought I’d drop a note to say hello and I’m still enjoying your posts (just don’t have much to say lately I guess, unusually for me). I love the bits of wit and wisdom that the princess comes up with–she is so funny!
