Yet ANOTHER Friday !!

Prob an oldie but still a goodie..Maggie at her best...


 


While visiting the United Kingdom , Winnie Mandela was invited to a cocktail party which was
also to be attended by Margaret Thatcher.

When Winnie saw the ex-prime minister on the other side of the room, she barged past
everyone, spilling the drinks of several invited guests on the way.


Winnie elbowed her way to Maggie, stood brazenly in front of her and declared, "I hear they
call you the Iron Lady!"

"I have been referred to by that name, yes," replied Maggie, peering down her nose at this impudent upstart.

"And whom, may I enquire, do I have the honour of addressing?" asked Maggie icily.

"I am the iron lady of South Africa!" bragged Winnie, waving her fist in the air.

"Oh, yes," replied Maggie dryly. "And for whom do you iron?"

When Berlusconi was premier of Italy, he visited once the UK. Upon his arrival at Heathrow, he is welcomed by the Queen and they both are driven in a magnificent 17th century carriage hitched to six white horses.


On the way towards Buckingham Palace, one of the horses lets fly with an horrendous earth shattering fart. The smell is atrocious and both passengers in the carriage must use handkerchiefs over their noses. The fart shakes the coach, but the two dignitaries of State do their best to ignore the incident.


The Queen says: "Mr. Berlusconi, please accept my regrets... I am sure you understand there are some things that even a Queen cannot control."


And Berlusconi: "Do not worry... I thought it was one of the horses."

OK, funny ha ha … but lèse majesté, a head of state would never go to an airport to greet a prime minister.
