Well, those of us that live in the UK. Does this mean I can take a flat in Buckingham Palace, rent-free of course?

No.
No what, Comrade? I happen to know that you're not on the list so there's no point in fretting over it. But you can live vicariously through those of us who are. I will think of you as my place in the succession edges towards the top. BTW I've decided against Buckingham Palace. I'm moving into Holyrood. You may stand outside the gates, gazing inwards in awe and waving, if you wish.

But that's just it,your position in the line of succession is much
too low to entitle you to any royal residence,and is guaranteed to
stay that way for as long as you live.

How do you know Comrade? You have no way of knowing one's antecedents. For all you know I could be within spitting distance of the crine...in which case you'd better be nice to me.

Admittedly Princess Michael would have to go, but I would make very few changes apart from that.

How do you know I'm not one of those people? After all, as I've pointed out in the past, I think Comrade Epstein is just a nom de guerre you use to hide your real identity (Princess Anne), but we all play along just to keep you happy.

Probably not but if one is "called" one will make sure that Princess Michael comes to live with you. Then you'll be sorry.

What's to wonder?
I have NO British ancestors!

That's alright Comrade Princess, your secret is safe with me. And for the record, I am much more Irish than I am British but that doesn't preclude me from being on "the list".

If all Europeans get a Guernsey to calling Charlemagne an ancestor then my choice of palaces to move into becomes even more widespread than Hilly's! I am tossing up at the moment between Schoenbrun, Versailles and Neuschwanstein.
