Skating Away

on the thin ice of the new day.

No wait, that wasn’t what I wanted to talk about;  but you can keep it running in the background anyway.

I haven’t been watching the Winter Olympics in CommieChinaland (who has?), but I noticed recently that there was some nonsense about doping and (duh) Russians, prompting a comment from Eternal Skating Hottie Katarina Witt.  So here we are:

 

Magnificent.  And… yer welcome.

Dusky Beauty

A little while back, while browsing through the Brit Newspapers (so you don’t have to), I saw mention of one Shilpa Shetty, who was in trouble for some reason a few years ago, but now is no longer — never mind the details, they are completely irrelevant and eminently forgettable.

However, Miss Shetty certainly isn’t:

Not being au courant  with the goings-on in Hollywood let alone Bollywood, I have no idea who she is or what she’s done, but she’s definitely worth a look.

Near Miss

I know that most if not all my Readers are interested in the shenanigans of the BritRoyals, but that’s the flimsy excuse I’ve used for showing the following totty:

You see, her name is Cressida Wentworth-Stanley (née Bonas), and at one time she was the girlfriend of Prince Harry, a.k.a. the Duke of Sussex, a.k.a. Harry Markle, a.k.a. the Ginger Whinger.  However, although he was reportedly quite smitten with Cressida, she was somewhat frowned upon by the Palace because she was an… actress.

So they split up, and you know the resultant mess.

I think young Cressy had a lucky escape.  She later married another guy named Harry, who has no title but is the son of a marchioness and is also related to a marquess via his mother’s second marriage.  Anyway, he has a hyphenated name, which takes care of half the issue for a young Brit girl with aspirations.

Should I explain the middle bit, again?
