One is greatly enjoying this challenge. Although how you dear peasants can possibly manage on as little as £4000 a day is quite beyond me.

Dear Ma'am,

On behalf of all the other peasants and my good self, we would be honoured to have you join us here for your own mini-challenge to live on £4000 for a single day. In appreciation for your taking the time to even associate with such lowly beings as ourselves, please accept this letter 'e', which appears to have fallen off the end of your name. I believe your humble Jumble-Bee servant retrieved it from a bush (not the presidential variety.) Do feel free to bring one's royal suggestions to the board and, if you would be so kind, might one dare to enquire if your brother, Charles, has sampled the Twinks Hob Nob recipe, as a possible addition to his organic product range?

Dear Humble Peasants,

Please accept one's humble apologies for spelling one's own name incorrectly - it is so hard to type by the light of a single candle with one's mittens on. Now that one comes to think of it, it is rather a marvellous way of saving one's money on ink to reduce one's name to a mere 3 letters. It does give one's servants such terrible cramp when one's birthday party invitations are being written. One is trying to restrict oneself to smaller, more intimate gatherings of no more than 500 guests for any occasion.

Now, one is just getting to grips with this forum. One has updated one's signature but is not sure if it is showing correctly.

Peasant Nyk, one will ask Big Ears when one sees him next.

Now, one doesn't mean to be ungracious, you cannot help being ignorant peasants, but the correct form of address is Your Royal Highness on your first occasion to speak with me, and Ma'am is only used on subsequent occasions.

Hello there Anne, the carrier pigeon arrived with news of these strange frugal peasants you have come across, so I have come to have a look.

I was just about the call you a ninny for leaving your 'e' in a bush, but I have just noticed that I myself am missing an 'n' (I sincearly hope that darned bee girl has not nabbed it and put in on ebay) or perhaps the frugality has seeped into my brain already, as 'price charles' seems quite appropriate here.

I see in the photos that you are getting some use out of the ebid umbrella I sent you for your last birthday. Camilla picked it out, she says she much prefers ebid to ebay as it works out less costly. She is a natural born frugaller, she is sitting darning my socks right at this moment.

In response to one of you peasants earlier enquiries, yes Dutchy Originals has looked into bringing out a range of organic twinks, however Camilla has vetoed that fot the time being, she believes they are intended to be a frugal homemade biscuit and a frugal homemade biscuit it ought to stay.

Well, I am off to my counting house to count out my money now. Toodlepip.

Oh dear, I haven't laughed so much in ages. I am just about to have a really awful day (positive thinking), but at least it's going to be cheap.

Hope you all have a great day.

Your obedient servant xxx

Big Ears,

It is just as well that you are only missing an 'n'. If you didn't have a 'p' you would be like that peasant on here who is not spending a penny until October!
*Chortle*.

OMG! What have you lot been up to in my absence :ROFL:

PrincessAnne, I am seriously feeling your sig. (Nyk, you crack me up!)

Janey, you have got me hungry by the power of suggesting. Mmm Pheasant meat

HRH and Future King of England (well, maybe)
We are indeed honoured by your presence on our humble forum and look forward to hearing your own frugal tips, such as only taking the helicopter out once a day. You'll be pleased to hear that we are not scrounging pheasants and will not be writing begging letters to ask for a share of your immense wealth (put the pen down Marru). However, if you felt any desire to contribute to our fascinating life experiment, perhaps you could send out some royal manure to help us tend our crops.
Yours in grovelling subservience.
ps a little tip for your good self Ma'am - if you cut your hair off or updated your style to the 21st century, just think how much you could save on hairspray!
