Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall Current Events 4: August-September 2005

[LaMinka]

How true, Tiarapin. That is one marriage that shouldn't have happened.

Yeah, I agree with you. But if Diana and Charles don't marry, we didn't had William or Harry..

 

[Princess BellyFlop]

Yeah, I agree with you. But if Diana and Charles don't marry, we didn't had William or Harry..

Sure but we would have someone else and we, royal followers, would be very happy with them simply because we would not even know about a possible William or Harry.

The Prince of Wales attends a Burma Star reception in Westminster Hall

From aap

It's very funny.
1. celebrations to commemorate VJ day involving the Burma Star Association had been already held in London on 15 August; other celebrations were held in Aberdeen on 21 August. Both were attended by Prince Philip. Why another one with Prince Charles in London on 21 August?
2. Why is he wearing an uniform? He looks pretentious. Philip didn't wear it.

Because the other vets are wearing their decorations? Dunno, it would look odd for them to wear them in honor of the day and Charles not to. I think Prince Philip was at another type of celebration.

VJ Day

The Duke of Edinburgh was wearind a suit with his medals, just like the other veterans at that gathering. The Prince of Wales had to lay a wreath at the Cenotaph, and this kind of event requires wearing the uniform, I suppose.

How convenient!!

 

[Alicky]

Wasn't he the druggie drunkard? Besides, they say that he "had been ill for some time. " A premature death doesn't surprise me.

 

[corazon]

How convenient!!

I totally agree with you!

 

[IslandDweller]

How convenient!!

Sorry - are you alleging foul play? I'm sure I'm misinterpreting your comment. Otherwise, you REALLY don't think highly of the powers that be at the palace .

 

[Harry's polo shirt]

Wow you all are so mean! He was so young, his death is very sad. I would understand your lack of compassion if he was a murderer or something. It doesn't matter if he used drugs, he may have had some problems but that doesn't mean that you have to be so disrespectful.

 

[Alicky]

Sorry if I don't really feel the need to whip out a box of kleenex.

In regards to that death of that poor man, the comments made were absolutely untoward. The guy was a battle veteran who suffered under tremendous mental illness and, certainly, he did not have a good experience at the Prince of Wales's household. I'm not going guess or suppose he was raped or not, but, out of sheer respect for humanity, I hope the poor man rests in peace.
