That sums up some of our differences.
To me, he should never have humiliated the Mayor, in such a public manner. He was there for a short time, a visitor, he should have afforded the mayor the courtesy of staying out of it.
Andrew, IMO, tends to demand formality when it suits him and his apparent belief that he has any 'genetic right' to do jobs he is not qualified for, isrmay286 said:
. He reminds me of the people who say 'we built this', when in fact they didn't, they simply paid someone else to do it and that is I believe what happens on his T&I jaunts. He is wined and dined whilst the minions do the real work.
No greater sacrifice than all the parents/wives who without fanfare allow their husbands/sons/daughters/wives to serve their country and HM, every single day. I think it unfair to blame his job for the demise of his marriage, children or not, the fault lies firmly on the apparent lack of maturity and commitment from Sarah.zonk said:
I do remember when you could only get your royal news from magazines, though. 10 or 12 years ago when I first was interested in royalty, I remember eagerly anticipating the next trip to the library to see if the new issue of Majesty was there yet! There's a generation of kids now who actually can't remember life before the internet, and that makes me feel old.
I am ancient, I can remember the computers that took up huge rooms, more than that I can clearly remember the time before computers!
There you have hit the nail firmly on the head, IMO. If not in the media, there is always someone who has had dealings with or heard gossip concerning one royal or another.

In most countries, there are two (usually, unless there is someone else agitating) in the marriage, no?
I don't believe it is. Anne for instance is correct when she says she won an Olympic medal, that was by her own effort. She trained with the horse, rode the horse, did the work.
Didn't Andrew commission a report of his efforts with his own money? If so, I think the rest of the UK ought to be privvy to the findings to see if his "job" is warrented all the perks he gets for doing it. That's only fair, IMO.
Oops, you are of course correct,
it was the European three day event at Burghley, (how could I forget, I was there), but she did qualify and compete in the 1976, Montreal Olympics, and for that she had to work with her horse, so unlike Andrew, she is right in saying she did the work. Zara, of course cannot be included, as she is not in the same position as the children of HM. Anne certainly managed in a very short time, to do what some couldn't even dare dream about.
That Natalia Vodianova PA is talking to is sure a stunner!
Well Angie Everhart's interview did say PA has an eye for the ladies. ..I must say that I agree, Russo. It appears that Prince Andrew has noticed as well as they are locking eyes in the second photo.
Yes it is.
