Prince Andrew's "accident"

PRINCE ANDREW AND PRINCE PHILIP ARE TALKING

PHILIP :
Got it wrong again I see.

ANDREW :
I'm so sorry father.

PHILIP :
I thought at least one of my sons had some balls! It's bad enough your older brother being such a tree-hugger - and as for your younger brother - well it doesn't bear thinking about. I'm convinced he's not mine.

ANDREW :
I tried my best but then this ruddy copper got in the way.

PHILIP :
Never there when you need them - but when you don't want one, there they are. Don't they realise they're supposed to be there to protect us?

ANDREW :
They were just standing there - a sitting - well standing target.

PHILIP :
Who? The police?

ANDREW :
No - these Japanese tourists.

PHILIP :
I never liked them. Slanty eyed little devils.

ANDREW :
And I had them in my sights. Irresistable! So I just put my foot down ....

PHILIP :
And the rozzer got in the way?

ANDREW :
Idiot! He could've done untold damage to my off-side wing!

PHILIP :
So is it more points for a policeman or a Japanese tourist?

ANDREW :
I don't know but there would've been two of them.

PHILIP :
They didn't arrest you did they?

ANDREW :
No fear. I didn't hang around.

PHILIP :
That's the spirit. So what's the problem then?

ANDREW :
The thing that hurts most is that they called me a careless driver.

PHILIP :
They've got a point you know - after all the rozzer only suffered an arm injury didn't he?

I think Phil the Greek is the best thing about the Royal Family.
