About this deal

Bertie goes into his room and feeds a Jammie Dodger to his pet frog Eric. He hears his mother approaching and hastily covers Eric with a pair of underwear. Mrs. Burns enters and asks who he was talking to, and he lies that he wasn't talking to anybody. Then, Eric hops along with the undies still on him and Mrs. Burns tells him not to keep pets in his room. Bertie reluctantly lets Eric out, but then changes his mind after realising that Pusskins may eat him. The next morning at seven, Mr. Burns wakes up a reluctant Bertie for training. They try their best to run, but the Riches are much fitter and Mr. Burns gets all achy and puffed-out. After 60 long years of waiting (since beaten by Prince Charles), Edward VII will assume his charge with rigor and seriousness, notably leading a policy of cordial understanding with France. Logical, one would be tempted to add, after so many services rendered

Public grief in Britain on Bertie's death at 70 was deeper than when his mother died. The press described him as a "peacemaker" who had enjoyed "one of the most brilliant and fruitful reigns in history". In Austria he was hailed as "the most influential man of the present day" and a monarch "who had been his own foreign minister". Middlemas, Keith (1972), Antonia Fraser (ed.), The Life and Times of Edward VII, London: Weidenfeld and Nicolson, ISBN 978-0-297-83189-1In the case of Richard and Philip, the bed sharing and the other statements of love between them are generally thought to have been a political statement. The two had teamed up to overthrow Henry II, and were just announcing to the world that France and England were allies. About the notion that the two were gay, historian Dr. John Gillingham states, On the night of the restaurant trip, Bertie decides to take Eric with him as he hasn't been eating his food. In the car, Bertie's family reminds him to behave, then they drive past Burger Madness, instead ending up at another restaurant: Restaurant Paradiso.

He believes if Bertie had been alive when Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria was assassinated in Sarajevo on June 28, 1914, he would almost certainly have stopped events escalating. "He would have assembled his oldest surviving friend in Europe, Emperor Franz Joseph of Austro-Hungary, and his nephews the Kaiser and the Tsar on a yacht or at a spa, handed out the cigars and talked firmly but amiably about the danger of a pointless war.

He got them originally about eight years ago from a manufacturer called Charvet, in Paris. Without the Entente Cordiale and Bertie's frequent personal interventions to calm the manic wrath of his psychotic nephew Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany, the First World War would have come earlier and with Britain even less well-prepared," argues Clarke. Actress, Tallulah Bankhead (1902 –1968) claimed that she had over 500 lovers. When the Kinsey report was published, Tallulah remarked that “the good doctor’s clinical notes were old hat to me”.

Fluent in French and German, he reinvented royal diplomacy by numerous state visits across Europe. [83] He took annual holidays in Biarritz and Marienbad. [56] One of his most important foreign trips was an official visit to France in May 1903 as the guest of President Émile Loubet. Following a visit to Pope Leo XIII in Rome, this trip helped create the atmosphere for the Anglo-French Entente Cordiale, an agreement delineating British and French colonies in North Africa, and ruling out any future war between the two countries. The Entente was negotiated in 1904 between the French foreign minister, Théophile Delcassé, and the British foreign secretary, Lord Lansdowne. It marked the end of centuries of Anglo-French rivalry and Britain's splendid isolation from Continental affairs, and attempted to counterbalance the growing dominance of the German Empire and its ally, Austria-Hungary. [84] Bertie seems to have had a particular taste for married women and often selected his mistresses from the wives of his intimate circle of friends, who considered it their duty to King and c*** to turn a blind eye. Bertie was 60 years of age by the time his assumed the throne in 1901, but even at his coronation “the King’s special ladies” had their own pew in Westminster Abbey.

Richardson, Matt (2001), The Royal Book of Lists, Toronto: Dundurn Press, p.56, ISBN 978-0-88882-238-3 Edward VII (Albert Edward; 9 November 1841 – 6 May 1910) was King of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions, and Emperor of India, from 22 January 1901 until his death in 1910. Real y distinguida orden de Carlos III", Guía Oficial de España (in Spanish), Madrid, 1887, p.148, archived from the original on 22 December 2019 , retrieved 21 March 2019 {{ citation}}: CS1 maint: location missing publisher ( link) In 1860, Edward undertook the first tour of North America by a Prince of Wales. His genial good humour and confident bonhomie made the tour a great success. [16] He inaugurated the Victoria Bridge, Montreal, across the St Lawrence River, and laid the cornerstone of Parliament Hill, Ottawa. He watched Charles Blondin traverse Niagara Falls by highwire, and stayed for three days with President James Buchanan at the White House. Buchanan accompanied the Prince to Mount Vernon, to pay his respects at the tomb of George Washington. Vast crowds greeted him everywhere. He met Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr. Prayers for the royal family were said in Trinity Church, New York, for the first time since 1776. [16] The four-month tour throughout Canada and the United States considerably boosted Edward's confidence and self-esteem, and had many diplomatic benefits for Great Britain. [17] Poincaré recalled Bertie's successful policy of keeping the peace with Russia and Germany, saying he made "the balance of European powers less unstable and peace less precarious."Talk of removing the Lords' veto played a major role in the January 1910 election. Early in the election campaign Lloyd George talked of "guarantees" and Asquith of "safeguards" that would be necessary before forming another Liberal government, but such talk ceased after the King informed Asquith that he would not be willing to contemplate creating peers until after a second general election. [12] [113] Balfour refused to be drawn on whether or not he would be willing to form a Conservative government, but advised the King not to promise to create peers until he had seen the terms of any proposed constitutional change. [114] During the campaign the leading Conservative Walter Long had asked Knollys for permission to state that the King did not favour Irish Home Rule, but Knollys refused on the grounds that it was not appropriate for the monarch's views to be known in public. [115] Napoleon Bonaparte’s sister, Pauline (1780-1825), took on so many well-endowed lovers that her doctors diagnosed her with an exhausted vagina. Großherzoglich Hessische Ordensliste (in German), Darmstadt: Staatsverlag, 1909, pp.3, 6, 28 – via hathitrust.org Itinerary of the Imperial Tour 1875–1876", Royal Museums Greenwich, archived from the original on 8 April 2018 , retrieved 7 April 2018 The idea wasn’t even mooted until 1948 and it stems from an official record announcing that, as a symbol of unity between the two countries, the kings of France and England had slept the night in the same bed. It was an accepted political act, nothing sexual about it; just two politicians literally getting into bed together, a bit like a modern-day photo opportunity.”
