The Queen turns down a free pint of Guinness - VIDEO & PHOTOS

I wouldnt drink it and I live beside the Guinness brewery but I do love the smell of hops from it every Tuesday.

No one's been able to make me eat or drink anything I didn't want to since I was in graded school......

kateomprint..verbatim!! *Whispers. I copied and pasted what you said.

I was particularly amused at this failed Irish attempt to subsume the Royals into it's appalling alcohol 'culture'.

sirpeter you obviously do read them because you were able to quote it verbatim.

@MarthaAnne,Come to yer senses lass!

ciarrai, who wrote: " Short of blowing them up I would not have them in Ireland. F**k them." Your statement is beyond disgusting.

holy jaysuS!! Her Highness wouldnt be first woman to refuse a pint of the black stuff .......and certainly wont be the last one! so whats the idiot who wrote that article on about?

They came, they listened, they were polite...I really can't picture the Queen hefting a pint glass anywhere in public. And the pint didn't go to waste, as soon as the royals departed a priest walked over and scarfed it up. Yep, it's a mortal sin to leave a pint untouched-LOL.

Going a little off topic...but what happens if the Scots opt for independence? Would that give the North three options for alignment...UK, Republic, or Scotland? Maybe they could convince the Welsh to break away and form a new country and call it the "wee two". Another pint and more speculation.

Phillip was annoying me with the yucks while your man is trying to explain the stuff to Liz and him. What an embarrassing stop that was. Liz couldn't have cared less. Liz and Phill's visit was for what reason? The Irish have certainly lowered their standards. Short of blowing them up I would not have them in Ireland. F**k them.

How Rude!

Perhaps shes been monitoring IC postings and read the one I posted about bringing her food taster with her, I suppose he/she must have been in the toilet when she was offered that pint.

kateomprint..I think you should read the headline of the article first and then my posts slowly until they sink in.Quote"sirpeter i am of an age where I can still hold a pint if i wanted to but I don't like the stuff. Can you not see it for what it was just a gesture"Unquote. Where exactly did my post refer to YOU not been able to hold a pint? By the way IC asked me my opinion on this article.But Katie guess what?You don't have to read my comments. I don't read yours.

Maybe she's a Pioneer!!!!!
