That part of the job would be OK, if there weren't all those rules about proper dress and behavior!
--- Quote ---On The Crown, I found the stories of Margaret and of Charles' school years very interesting as well as Elizabeth and Phillip's trip to Africa.

I haven't seen the former but yes, the latter was interesting. Especially whey they left, their car passing the king in the street. Very colonialist.
The last one I watched was about the fog that killed at least 3,000 people and possibly 10,000. I thought of that yesterday, when smoke from Canadian wildfires drifted here and mixed with humidity until it almost blotted out the sun.

How would you feel about wearing a hat and gloves and carrying a handbag? ;D

:laugh: I'm fine with hat and gloves if it's below zero. I do carry a bag, but it's more like a one-strap backpack -- not a prim handbag like royals carry.

It's a show that was filmed as the series finale to "Cults & Extreme Beliefs", which aired on the Vice Network.
The survivors were made up of one person from each of the following groups:
NXIVM
Jehovah's Witness
Children of God
United Nation of Islam
Unification Church and its offshoot known as the Sanctuary Church of Newfoundland
FLDS
Twelve Tribes

A niece of mine is in the Twelve tribes. She was living with her husband and five children at a compound near Boulder, Colorado, and on New Year's Eve someone there was burning something in a shed and caused a fire that burned down 1,000 houses! She had to move to Manitou Springs where the cult has another compound.
