Pope to leave Vatican by helicopter

[No Shot Sherlock]

Oh well, so much for retiring to a simple life of prayer

[Lost in Transportation]

He isn't leaving Vatican City though as he's moving into a nice retirement suite previously occupied by nuns. So it seems a tad extravagant...

[HappyHour@TheBreweryOfLife]

Be fair, he is moving to humble temporary lodgings outside Rome while his humble permanent residence is completely refurbished.

Maybe he's visiting a few saints for a period of quiet reflection first - St Lucia, St Maarten, St Kitts....

Could be, they`ll let him off, when they`re over the Med.

St Mary's......

He`s lucky most of his predecessors have left in a wooden box

I dont think he will be long for this world myself, but as I am not a catholic it wont affect me, however I am a great fan of Henry V111.

I mean, if y'all were dying you'd wanna use your chopper one last time.

Well he has not used his so far, despite telling everyone how to use theirs.

Who know whether he's used his or not......

Well he's not allowed to have used it. Part of the job spec for popey.

(then again, priests aren't really allowed to rape choirboys but they just can't help themselves)

I thought it was a perk of the job to get to use your chopper -especially once you get to Cardinal. Wasn't it great timing that Stonewall had voted the Scottish Cardinal that has just resigned Bigot of the Year last year for his outspoken views on homosexuality? The Catholic heirarchy is a disgrace. By chance, had a friend over last night who is reading a book about popes over the ages (not really my thing!) and in the 13th Century, a pope had a whorehouse full of nubile young wenches attached to his palace for his own personal pleasure.
