Why isn't St George's Day a bank holiday in England? A disgrace. You can get locked up for flying the English flag on St. George's Day. #BrokenBritain |

Another little shit to add to the list.
Edit: I should clarify; this is an anti-royalist statement about the birth of another parasitic overlord, nothing to do with the record of accidental bowel movements that I keep.

Ah, I've only just seen it. Bet they are really sorry that they've already blown the name George on the first one. I'm okay with this, though. For some reason my grandchildren are coming at the same rate as the royal kids, always with a few months delay. So at the moment the third one is on the way. Maybe their parents think that it's a competition, but as long as I'm getting more grandchildren I'm happy. |

My bag of crisps opened badly today, splitting along the vertical axis as well as the horizontal.
What is this new prince doing to help me with this? That’s what I want to know.

I've often wondered why people don't just number their kids, instead of going through all the hassle of coming up with a name.

The examiner asked him what they thought would be an easy question for a British teenager about the Queen's children. He had no idea how many of them there were, let alone what they were called. Nowadays he's aware of Charles, but still has no clue who the other ones are. When the revolution comes the royals will be praying that he's in charge. |

I think Corbyn has said Labour would give it as a bank holiday. Really I just want a day off here, maybe a chance to see The Dirty Dozen on ITV. |

Plus, pregnant mothers could amuse their friends by explaining that they are expecting a number 2. Precisely. They could talk about how much the number 2 weighed etc. I suppose the only problem could come if you end up disowning one of them "yes, just the 3 kids - One, Two and Four" |

So what can be swept under the carpet for the next few days from the government as everyone will be cooing over a baby?

What about broken homes? Is it every couple starts at 1? Or just how many the woman has had? Is one woman's 4 another man's 2? |

Maybe it could be first name is the woman's number second names is the man?
Could be awkward though. Where's little 3 27?

What about broken homes? Is it every couple starts at 1? Or just how many the woman has had? Is one woman's 4 another man's 2? Either it's going to have to be based on the woman's babies, or to avoid too many shared names use a more complex addition of letters, e.g.: Proud Husband to friend: Yes, we're expecting 3, I'm really hoping for a son this time. Proud Husband's Wife: Erm, actually dear, we're going to have to call this one 1b. Following the rules would just be awks much, especially for the wife and the milkman. |

2B or not 2B.
You really should have gone for the Shakespeare quote pun.
