There Went The Girls

So, the reunion lunch was terrific. I'm not long home from it, and am happy to say that, thanks to a special Wine Of The Week offer on Chateau Neuf du Pape, I've blown the diet.

Still. It was great to see to see the girls and catch up and natter and jest and natter and gossip and bitch a bit and natter. As anticipated, it was a little like no time had passed.

Still there were a few things that left us scratching our heads that I think you might be able to help me with.

Please can I have answers to a couple of questions:

1) What is the collective noun for transvestites? In the context of conversation, Pip said, "so this gang of trannies came over ..." and we questioned use of the word "gang". We have suggested a purse of trannies, an extravagance of trannies, a clutch of trannies or a camp of trannies. Any feelings on any of those? Or any other suggestions?

2) One of the girls (currently four and a half months pregnant) is going to a fancy dress party in a few weeks with a theme of dead celebrities. There was lots of debate as to which female dead celebrity would be apt. The idea she was most enthusiastic about was the Queen Mother. Any ideas?

All thoughts gratefully received.
