Queen Endorses Golliwogs As Carol Thatcher Says “Golly Good Show, Andy Murray”

by | 5th, February 2009

TO a gift shop on the Queen’s Sandringham Estate in Norfolk, and a order for golliwog toys.

Carol Thatcher is elevated from the living hell of BBC TV’s pisspoor The One Show after referring to tennis playerAndy Murray as a “golliwog” and the UK goes bonkers for the golli.

The £9.99 golliwog toys had been on sale in the Sandringham shop for more than a year, but thanks to Thatcher they are getting knocked out faster than an Englishman on Centre Court.

Says a spokesman for the 20,000-acre estate:

“The management of the shop have said they did not intend to offend anyone by selling this product and have apologised if any offence has been caused. The shop will immediately review its purchasing policy.”

Better had, if they are going to keep up with demand.

Go Andy! Good Golly – we’re Murray Manaics!

You can spread our jam any timw!
