Those are the best moments, when royal children behave like children!

Aren't they cute little things! Thanks for posting them. Josephine is changing. When she was younger I didn't think she looked at all like her siblings - thought she was perhaps more of a Donaldson. Now I am changing my mind.

Are there any updates in the case itself? I am under the impression that formal charges, if coming, will come in the fall. From there how long before a trial?

The holder of the "Annus horribilis" title has officially passed to JC.

When I clicked on this thread I thought it would be about the actual powers of the Queen. Boy, was I surprised.....

I'm guessing this was a joke.

I agree with you. Mabel and the girls live in London, work (or worked) in London, and go to school in London. London seemed the obvious choice for the moment. We don't really know why London was chosen, however. In the U.S. sometimes there is no room at a given moment for another patient...

As an American, I am going by other children who come to the U.S. Children very quickly acclimate to their surroundings, and their peers despite the retention of their language at home and their parents' ambivalence to their new life. Irene has only attended school in the United States...

As an American, I completely concur. They will be hounded from time to time by Spanish media unless they undertake intergalactic travel. Can anyone picture them living like the Jetsons or Lost in Space ("Danger! Danger! Miguel Urdangarin!) ;) I'm sorry to say that most Americans 1)...

What? They woke up two days into the vacation and suddenly realized it was Inaki's name day? :lol:

Well now we have some real information! If a person works a 24 hours shift, how much time is he/she required to take off in between? I am thinking of pilots and machinery operators, etc. For a certain amount of hours worked, for safety they get a certain amount of hours off in between shifts.

Keep posting, Tommy100. There are two sides to every story (at least) and we need to hear all perspectives. I don't think it takes much to realize that exceptions are made for William in his workload, given his royal duties. Just how much is another matter.

Whether the story is true or not, I hate to see the sins of the father visited upon the sons, or daughters as it may be. I don't see reports of either girl whining about this. In fact, both seem to be carrying on with their lives. Both attended university, Beatrice takes a job this fall...

I'm with the frumpy crowd on this one. We all can't hit it out of the park every time. Who was she with? Looks like a close relative of Princess Charlene ;)

I don't have an issue with the jeans. A little tight, but I think European notions on vulgarity and revealing too much are different from ours. But then again, with some of the garb I see women Catherine's age wearing here in the southern U.S., she looks like a Victorian model. I think...

I can't wait to see the photos! I love the photos of royal children most of all.

A very nice article, but I am puzzled. Why were they on vacation and not at Grasten? I suppose Grasten is NOT considered a command performance for the DRF, but still - should they not be there? Or they fading in importance as Frederik and Mary's family grows?

I don't believe a word of that. I don't think the U.S. wanted to be, necessarily a "world power" in 1918. We were largely isolationists until WWII. It was the RISE of Communism and Nazism which got us involved in world affairs.

I don't think Kate will ever be as "popular" as Diana. She is simply not what the press and Diana herself made Diana out to be; larger than life. A lot of people want that larger than life, celebrity to read about. They are not interested in celebrating someone "ordinary." Nor do I think...

My guess is a September baby. It would be nice to hear the name of Davina's new baby... I suppose when this new one is born, they will both be added together to the official line of succession.

Hooray! I noticed Lady Rose at the Jubilee church service. I don't think that baby will be a late 2012 baby....:whistling:

"Freddy, one day you will be the king! Now be a good lad and please pass the schnapps."

I know that the mods frown on speculation, but I saw photos of Lady Rose Gilman during the Jubilee church service. I think it's beyond speculation that there is another happy event in the Gloucester household in the near future. ;)

I agree. By the age of 11, he was well aware that his mother was Queen, and that his grandfather before her was King. He must have worked it out before this that he would be King. As for Mary reading Eckhard Tolle, wow, good for her. I tried to read it. Didn't get very far.

I think you're right. In photos it looked like a piece of costume jewelry - until I saw the Cartier website, and then said, "whoa." it does belong with jeans/jacket (high end) or with an LBD. Not an office dress.
