Subject: RE: BS: Chuck, Camilla and crows
I was working where they landed last night. 1984. Parking apron extensions. Had two 4' deep holes on the sides of the apron. Airport manager asked me if we could finish the job in 6 weeks as The Queen was due. I lied and we dug. They went ballistic 4 weeks later. Her Majesty could not be allowed to see construction! I said I would assume she would be pleased to see her colony being built. Didn't go over well.
Spent $15k on a plywood "fence" with red, white and blue bunting on it. I'll bet she thought that was silly. But, of course, she wouldn't say shit if she had a mouthfull... until ya get a few into er eh.
