The ‘enry ‘iggins Guide to Massa

The ‘enry ‘iggins Guide to Massa

This guide is written for my fellow Guyanese born after 26th May 1966, You and I know no ‘Massa day’ , we were born into a country free from the oppressive colonial yoke, the only oppression we have known is from our own dear countrymen, our ignorance of Massa is usually a bliss, however one of the lesser Massas’ is on a tour of Gam-Gam’s previous possessions in the New World and it behooves us to sharpen up our etiquette in preparation for His Royal Highness Prince Henry of Wales.

General Information

If you cannot pronounce your H’s , stay in the back, no mouthing up Prince ‘arry or ‘enry.

The present girlfriend is Miss Markle an American actress, NOT Miss Merkel the leader of the fourth Reich or Miss Marple, a beloved old biddy of Agatha Christe’s invention.

The whole James Hewitt is your daddy thing has supposedly been covered-up disproved, but still avoid any mention of his striking resemblance to same.

Learn to Bow and Scrape. (Hint: think Lawyer in court) Your worship dis and dat.

Poorer citizens are asked to wear the dan-dan or stay indoors and not “poor up the place and spoil massas’ view”

Bandits beware that your benefactor in office will not be kindly disposed to any act that causes his “crime?,what crime?” stance to be questioned during the visit.

News Outlets –Please see above.


For Government Officials

Most of you are old like dirt so no formal training is needed, however a reminder that:

The prince is not here to go to “Rio”…. Basil….

Try to remember that YOUR national Anthem goes “dear land…” and not “God save…”

Arthritis is no excuse for not curtsying.

The prince does not want to hear about “when you were his age”.

For all you Brigadiers, Generals, Boat-less Admirals, this man went to an actual war, it may be more interesting to discuss the history of Crimplene used to make those black suits than the ‘medals’ hung on them.

For Members of the Cocktail Circuit

Smile and nod, ask no question, if asked anything by His Highness, it is acceptable to lie.

For Dangles

Beena’s has a new selection of whore heels that would look good on the prince’s shoulder, you know what to do…go Dangle, after all, you are our most precious resource, forget Miss Markle, introduce his highness to Miss Turkle.
