    Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall Current Events 11: January-February 2006

    That article doesn't even make sense. There must be more to it - from the story 'Had Sgt Turner's case reached a tribunal, potentially embarrassing secrets about Charles and Camilla's lives may have been aired.'

It's always so easy to criticise and much more difficult to actively attempt to alleviate problems...
