The Prince of Walas as Founder and President of The Earthshot Prize paid a visit in London today, March 8, "to celebrate the scaling of Earthshot Prize solutions following the launch of the Prize in 2020", he visited "The Kia Oval Cricket Ground with Earthshot Prize winner, Notpla, to hear about a new multi-million-pound contract with Levy UK + Ireland, part of Compass Group, to introduce Notpla's seaweed-based, natural food packaging to over 50 sporting and event venues":

This is commendable, sure, but it further reinforces my thoughts that Williams version of "duty" revolves around only things he cares about rather than giving himself to a variety of causes the British people might ask him to be involved in.

Do we have dates for the South Africa trip for William? I assume he will spend a few days in the country. I don't believe he has visited officially as a royal?

Having been twice to SA in the last 9months it is a beautiful country and Cape Town is a stunning city

A touching moment before the formal part of Day3 gets going
Kate has been amazing, Prince William says Kate has been amazing, Prince William says

It's always encouraging to me to hear William remark on Catherine's continuing recovery.
Charlotte's "Papa" bracelet for William is adorable.
