If it’s not the Elizabethan Age anymore, what age is it now?
Jump to: Newest in thread
"I think technically it’s known as the Carolingian age pronounced with a soft ‘g’. "
Sorry, I’ve just checked and I was wrong!
Carolingian refers to the Frankish dynasty of Charlemagne.
The age of Kings Charles are known as ‘Caroline’.
So, don’t start all singing ‘sweet Caroline’ but yes, my ex-gf will be think it’s all about her and she’ll be wrong: we are now in a Caroline age! |

As long as he stops talking to trees and stops lecturing about sustainable housing (massively expensive and subsidised in the Duchy of Cornwall) he will be fine.
However, he will always be a proper Charlie.
Went to Cambridge and barely scraped through - Not what we need just now!! |

Of course people will pick through Queen Elizabeth's reign but I just think now is not really the time. |

"Is anyone going to be able to say “King Charles” without adding Spaniel on the end?
I’m sad that the Queen has passed. There will never be another like her. "
I certainly haven’t managed to yet, I’d stick with ‘the king’ but then people will think of Elvis. |

"Carolinian or just plain Caroline depending on your website choice
Sweeeeet Caroline

Can we get rid of the bloody awful national anthem and use that instead? Will make winning events a lot more interesting |
