Kitty Posted December 25, 2007 Author Share Posted December 25, 2007 Mrs FrenchieWe are LADY C and we are not a grandmother. Do not forget that. But I forgive you for your lapse of concentration.I had a simply wonderful time at Sandringham yesterday and baby James, Viscount Severn, is delightful. Sadly, I had to fly out last night because my Academy is dear to my heart.Now that the turkey is basted, I'm off to the Elysee next as dear Nicolas is in need of my succour. Miss Frenchie, despite the love affairs, the explosions etc, I am proud of how you have coped. I am thinking of recommending you for a honour in the New Year's List but don't let anyone know. I thought Baroness Frenchie sounds rather sweet.Have to fly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitty Posted December 25, 2007 Author Share Posted December 25, 2007 I've had too much Baileys at the Elysee, Miss Frenchie. Can we postpone our little chat until Boxing Day? Do you have a British passport, Miss Frenchie, because that is a requirement of being a Baroness? Mind you, I could ask Gordon to bend the rules.

Frenchie Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Lady C, good evening . Oh don't worry for our appointment, it can be postponed..

Kitty Posted December 25, 2007 Author Share Posted December 25, 2007 Miss FrenchieDo I detect un petit peu de grovelling to get your title? It is unbecoming of such a fine specimen as you. Stop kissing my feet, please.See you on Boxing Day.... in my study...By the way, where is everyone else today - have my staff deserted me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchie Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Once again I apologize.. it is difficult for me to determine the frontier between being respectful and the attitude you call " grovelling " ..Sorry.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Posted December 26, 2007 Author Share Posted December 26, 2007 Miss FrenchieI am very grateful for your apology. The announcements for the New Year's Honours' List are on Saturday. There is an embargo beforehand (although rumours abound e.g. Michael Parkinson's honour). In the past, if anyone knew beforehand, it was vetoed. So you better not warn anyone that a title could be imminent.This secret has to be "entre nous". I was delighted with the suitcase of cash that you gave me (for the Academy of course, but the bursar need not know that I shall spend it on myself). Titles cannot be bought but, in your case, I shall ask Gordon make an exception.Lady C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchie Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Lady C , Of course this will remain between you and I .. it goes without saying ......I will be in Liverpool on saturday. So if I am called to London, I'll leap in no time ....I must admit I am very thrilled about that possible announcement of my name on the honours' list .....Yours faithfully, Frenchie .PS : Of course, I' m ready to become a British citizen if that is required ..

Kitty Posted December 27, 2007 Author Share Posted December 27, 2007 Rumours abound, Miss Frenchie, that it could be a Damehood. I'm getting quite excited for you.Don't tell Miss Sweet, the Estates Bursar, about the cash but it has very useful on my Luxor holiday with Nicolas.
