Maybe Mr Burrell is a bit peeved that Camilla won't let him try on her summer wardrobe.

The article states that the bike was owned by the family of a former housekeeper to the Spencers, so the sale proceeds are theirs, as is their right.

The successful bidder was overcome by an attack of hyperbole:

Well, that's nice. How do they decide who gets to ride it first, though?

Since it seems to have been given the status of holy relic, it will be preserved in aspic for the benefit of future generations.
"The Life of Brian" and the sandal come to mind.

One more film on Diana and Dodi. I don't tolerate more these conspiracy theories.
They should leave Diana alone.

I'am tired of seeing films on Diana' death, what about one on her life.

I agree with you. I don't tolerate more. The newspapers, magazines,.... continue seeking any thing to win money with Diana's story.

Well, if people didn't buy this stuff, the papers, magazines, and TV stations wouldn't be producing it. The consumers do share some of the blame.

I agree with you. Their buisness depends on our support. The people who blame paparazzi for the death of princess Diana were sometimes the first persons to buy tabloids when a scoop came out of her life... It's all a matter of money!
