Subject: Blair and Brown

why would Blair and Brown get invites to the wedding? They are nobodies, commoners, untitled, did nothing spectacular in life. At least Maggie has a title but then she was too sick to go. Did you get an invite?.....I rest my case.

Bernice: Brown.. yes. But Blair is a more complex case and there is tradition.

Blair was a major player in the end of the 'war' in Northern Ireland, he also persuaded Ghaddafi to stop his nuclear ambitions.. the idea of Ghaddafi having nukes at the moment... not nice.

One of my Grandparents was "nobodies, commoners, untitled, did nothing spectacular in life." .. well apart from a couple of little things....

He got invited to the Queen's Coronation.

.. A thorn in the memory of a political party of one Commonwealth country.

Maggie has a title.... wow... hardly uncommon in the UK's system of government.
