The lighter side of Sussexit Part II

The Prince and Cinderella had almost reached the pond where they planned to escape (they had left their baby in the Country next to hers), when the Prince remembered that he had not said goodbye to his Granny.

He did not want to make Granny sad, so Cinderella went by herself to the country next to hers, to be with baby Liberace (he was a very flamboyant baby), and Prince Hairy (so named because of the hair on his face) went to the Palace to meet his granny and also his father Prince Gnarls and his brother, Prince Pills.

The Prince's family had been quiet all along, on account of their upper lips being a bit stiff.

Now, the people in the Kingdom who had been cross with Cinderella for leaving baby Liberace by himself in the country next to hers, were cross with her for going back to her baby and leaving the Prince to go to Granny's all by himself.

They were playing a game of Damned if you do and damned if you don't, with Cinderella and Prince Hairy, but mostly with Cinderella. They said that it was not Hairy's fault since he had not yet found his spine.

The special people with the cameras and computers were happy because they could be cross once again. But Pisst Jargon was no longer cross and he was no longer apoplectic. He was beyond apoplectic crossness.

So beyond apoplectic crossness was he, that he turned purple, like carrots in the olden days, before they became orange, which was the colour of his friend, King Frump.

The people of the Kingdom, the people of the world, the evil people with cameras and computers and the purple Pisst Jargon, all climbed onto a huge platform called Social, and turned into birds. They turned into very angry birds, who made very angry tweeting sounds.

The angry birds who made mean tweeting sounds about Cinderella and her hairy Prince, were cross with the angry birds who made nice tweeting sounds about them and the angry birds who made nice tweeting sounds about them, were cross with the angry birds who made mean tweeting sounds about them. 

All the angry birds on the platform that was social, had feathers that were ruffled.

Meanwhile, in the Palace, Prince Hairy's Granny kindly decreed that the Prince, Cinderella and baby Liberace, could live in the Kingdom and also in the Country next to hers.

When the decree was read out to the people, some of the cross people who had come down from the platform called Social, clambered back on and  joined the angry birds who had never left the platform.

Some even tweeted that if the Hairy Prince's Windsurfer family, who lived in the Palace, no longer got to wear crowns and jewels and medals, it would all be the fault of Cinderella.

When he heard this, the Prince's uncle, Prince Randy, was filled with joy. He had been apprehensive that if such a thing happened, the fault would be his, on account of him being under suspicion for not being able to sweat - this had caused him quite a lot of discomfort.

But he remembered what his Mummy had said to him when he was a little boy, One does not complain. So, he did not complain - he bravely took it on his double chins.

Now, so filled with joy and gratitude was he, that he unrolled a scroll and wrote 'thank you' on it. That is what it looked like he wrote, but it was hard to tell, as the ink that he dipped  his quill into, was smudged.

This was on account of his pores that were sealed since Prince Randy had fought in the War for the Land of Forks, opening up and causing sweat to pour onto the  parchment of his scroll. 

Will Prince Hairy, Cinderella and baby Liberace get to live happily ever after? 

Not if the angry birds on the platform that is social, the evil people with cameras and computers and the very purple Pisst Jargon have anything to do with it. 

Until next time, try and keep it light.
