Car crash Carol.


Byline: Maureen Messent

CAROL Thatcher Carol Thatcher (born 15 August 1953), officially styled as The Honourable Carol Thatcher, is a British journalist and the daughter of the late Sir Denis Thatcher, Bt and Baroness Thatcher, the former British Prime Minister.  was always a pending car crash.

There's something pretty sad about the old girl who has developed the never-say-die attitude of the unattached and secretly lonely.

n.
A doll fashioned in grotesque caricature of a Black male.

Do we care? Carol Thatcher.
