Imperial Family Claimants Part 11

[anna]

Helen dearie,

Mmm your face looked  familiar to me. I shall have a look in the photo archives where I've seen your face before. Maybe my old aunt can tell me more, she lives in the past too y'know.
I don't mind using one of my luxurious cars with room for a pony, but I want my handsome guard back. So don't you hide him in the bin

May the force be with you.

Anna still not to be disturbed only when Fabergé is on the phone.

Ps: Helen, I think you miss something dearie, your astral body still lies on my doorstep, be so kind to remove yourself, otherwise my royal guests will fall over you. Thank you.

Dearest Courtiers:

What has happened?   I sat down to eat the evening meal  with  the Prince and one of his friends and you would never guess what we all saw!

The Palace here at Tsarskoe Selo has gone paranormal.

Sitting with us were four former and long dead Tsars along with Catherine the Great who insisted on having nineteen cups of coffee  and  she also brought along Platon Zubov her  boyfriend from the Guard.

What's next?

Tsar Doug and the invisibles round the table.....

[Georgiy]

My dearest friends!
Thank you all so much for the wonderful reception at the wedding. Her Majesty and I were thrilled to see you all there. We especially enjoyed Pss. Lexi's Rasputin look, and GD Janet's Marie Antoinette wig and the huge picture hat, which put the Wife of Bath's one to shame. Her Majesty and I are very busy. I am flying us in my helicopter to a secluded tropical island, so communications may be patchy for the next week or so.

Cheerio all,
Georgiy Imperator.

[etonexile]

Great time was had by all...but...erm...what was in that dip?

[Janet_W.]

Darling, why do you think they call it dip?

 

As for yours truly, I have doffed the picture hat, wig, and transparent Cinderella costume, and am now, once again, comfortably ensconced in my "Here Comes Trouble" tee shirt. (Plus jeans, you naughty male imperial claimants!   )

Yes, the wedding was great fun--Lexi as Rasputin was a special delight--and how thoughtful of Georgiy Imperator to contact us while in the process of flying away with his bride. Our best to them on that tropical isle, where we hope none of their former flames have also chosen to honeymoon . . .  

T.D., your idea for a Part Eleven was sheer genius. (Accent on the sheer!   ) And so glad to see that Spy Anna and possibly her Evil Twin, plus Princess Pink and Shvibi also made it over to our warped blog . . . um, I mean our new warpstation, as well as our latest guest Helen. (Minus her royal title . . . Helen, darling, don't keep us in suspense!) And I'm particularly delighted that the budgies made it over, feathers unruffled. But where oh where are the Torias?

Now, you'll excuse me, but a few minutes ago there was a rapping at my shloss door, and who do you think it was but Gregori Potemkim, at my service! Said he was trying to trace a certain wench by the name of Ekaterina and had been told she was traveling with a male companion in the vicinity of a palace occupied by a certain Tsar Doug. I of course have been stalling him, promising him all sorts of things   including a few Potemkin villages here and there.

Well, darlings, must go, but see you tomorrow, same blog-place, same blog-time--

Imagines the..."Here Comes Trouble" tee-shirt...goes off to take cold shower....Woof....as it were....

[lexi4]

Greeting all from Gatchina.
I am so glad you all liked my Rasputin look. I must admit, I felt a bit wild during the whole affair.
Pink...please send whaever has you high. Little health problems goiing on with some of the palace members here.
The bride and bridegroom looked fabulous. I had such a good time. Our next big affair will be the ball. I think I am coming as Catherine the Great.
T. Doug, please invite me to dinner. I would love to talk to the dead Tsars. Maybe we should have a little seanance. (i'm sure I spelled that wrong.) Oh well it is later here.

Imperial Notice:  Please,  All Members Take Note

Dearest Courtiers:

Please note in the Post below that I, the Tsar, requested that we start Part II.  Roman style.

But all of the wonderful credit goes to our dear Princess Pink for starting the new Part 11.  She misunderstood me after all those glasses of bubbly and sent us all into another  time zone and space warp.


++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Attention All Courtiers:

Should we start a Part II?  The current one takes forever and a day to load.

I hereby appoint any of the Imperial Courtiers so inclined to immediately start a Part II.

Dearest friends and valued family members,

Yes, Tsar Doug, I had too much pink champagne that night and being blonde and not too good at maths (unless it is a clothing sale that includes percentages) have started Part 11, not part II, so you see, now we are all in a Time Warp, Roman Style.

I too would love to meet all the dead Tsars and what about the Tsarinas?? Now that would create great conversations, and I have a few questions for Alix........

Well, our smart Grandest Duchess Janet has pointed out our shortcomings so I have decided she must be brunette.

Dear Eton in Exile, divorced men are very atttractive, look at Prince Charles, ok not a good example, but there are others......

Our darling Lady redtoria must be lost in the old world, I hope she finds her way home to us soon.

Dearest Friends
I have had a brilliant idea!!! When this thread is filled instead of going to part 12, we shall work backwards, from part 10 until we get back to Part II.
How's that for a clever idea, heh??
That way we will have missed nothing and we can visit what we've missed or something............

[anna]

Pink my dearie,

For a blonde this isn't such a bad idea. Brilliant, good job, carry on! Only, we have to start moonwalking again. Big steps, home soon. If you don't know how, ask our dearest GD/GP Janet our moon expert.

Cosmo Anna

[Janet_W.]

Dearest Humble Working Girl Helen--

Did you know that Peter the Great's second wife was also a humble (ahem) working girl?   So maybe you are she!

As for etonexile . . . well, in the immortal words of Grand Duchess Sarah, "I'll see you later!"  

Yes, I do agree with our surrender-the-Pink Lady that we might work our way backwards--and, as Anna said, since I am a moonwalker par excellance, when the time comes for Part Ten, just follow me and I will be your Moonwalking Moses!

The very backward

I shall just return now to the Madhatter's Tea Party............
where I am currently dressed and certainly feeling like Alice in Wonderland.......

[bluetoria]

Princess Pinkie, je reviens! And what tidings I bear!
I've been out of circulation for a while after taking a wrong turning & finding myself in the cellars of the Palazzo Cardinale in Munich. What was there? Beer....gallons of it. Well, I was quite lost & so afraid of becoming dehydrated that I had no alternative but to avail myself of what was available to me. For three weeks I lived on nothing but beer & then the strangest thing happened.
I, Lady Cardinale Redtoria, had a vision! Of course these things are quite common for we Cardinal types but this vision was particularly striking - you'd never guess who it was? None other than Ivan the Terrible himself!
"Listen to me," he said, "you must sober up - sorry, smarten up - & return at once to the Imperial Palace to forward your claim. You are not a simple peasant from the wilds of Yorkshire who rose to the lofty heights of Cardinal...Oh no, you are my long lost successor (at which point he showed me a family tree) who was snatched away by a gypsy boy named Heathcliff and dropped clumsily into Wuthering Heights. Now is the time to reclaim your true inheritance as Tsarina...Go at once & inform Tsar Doug and all the courtiers of my decree."
Obviously one doesn't argue with a man like Ivan the Terrible so here I am, Yorkshire accent and all, staking my claim....And since purple is far more regal than red, I've changed colour once more.
Your would-be Tsarina Purpletoria
