In a shocking revelation, Ta Ta For Now News reporter Petula Tart unveils the surprising decision of the King to put the historic Windsor Castle up for sale.

The King explained to Miss Tart, the 954-year-old castle is facing an array of challenges, ranging from a dire shortage of functional toilets to the urgent need for extensive roof repairs on the fox hunt horse stables. As if that wasn't enough, the castle's majestic tower has fallen victim to centuries of stubborn fog residue.

In a candid statement, Charles expressed his reluctance to shoulder the exorbitant repair costs, hinting at a desire to explore alternative options for the regal residence alongside his beloved queen.

The King had considered sending Camilla out on the game to scrape in a few quid, but he says that since turning 75, she just doesn't have the stamina any more to even open a pot of gentlemen's relish.

The potential sale of this iconic symbol of British heritage has sent shockwaves through the nation.
