Looking at the picture of Oliver Cholmondeley and Prince George, you realize what a big boy George is. Oliver is three years older, but they're about the same size.

How many garden parties do King Charles and Queen Camilla host in one year?

 

[tommy100]

Hard to say really as its been a long time since we've had a "normal" year - the death of the late Queen, the coronation, Covid, the late Queen's declining health...

In 2017 (perhaps the last normal year) the late Queen hosted 3 at Buckingham Palace and 1 at Holyrood in Edinburgh.

However, this year there are 3 "King's Garden Parties" of which the King has attended the first already. He also hosted the Creative Industries one (which he hadn't necessarily been expected to)

So I reckon Charles will host 5.

3 x General King's Garden Parties at BP
1 x General King's Garden Party at Holyrood
1 x Creative Industries Garden Party

Given his health, they are perhaps good events for him to attend, they are outdoors, relatively short (2 hours) and of course in the garden of a royal residence so not far "from home". They also allow him to meet many many people in one go.

King Charles and Queen Camilla begin a two-day visit to the Channel Islands today.

The King and Queen, then the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, visited the Channel islands in 2012. I understand this visit will be the first time a British monarch has visited the Channel Islands since 2005.

Has a schedule of their engagements been made public yet?

Here's a little more on the visit to the Channel Islands.

Locally-laid duck eggs have been gifted to the King and Queen.

It was an update to an 800-year-old custom of giving two dead ducks on a silver platter to a new monarch on their first visit to the island.

No dead ducks, but they will be getting seven cows!

 

[tommy100]

Seven frisky cows it seems!

The rain doesn't appear to be dampening anyone's spirits.

There was some sort of minor security scare - Camilla was seen pulled away from her engagements (eating an ice cream) and walked by security into a nearby hotel. It was a false alarm and the visit continued shortly after.

 

[US Royal Watcher]

They're free to boo & heckle & others are free to boo & heckle them. So everyone's enjoying their free speech.

Both sides should be able to practice free speech, but people should also be considerate and respectful. It seems the children were very excited about the King's visit. What was the purpose of the disruption. I don't think the demonstration advanced the republican calls. In fact, I think it reports about people getting into shouting matches with children are most likely counterproductive.

There are very unhappy, angry people who want attention and want to make other people unhappy. If the UK became a republic tomorrow, these same people would be looking for other causes so they can continue causing disruption.
