Seems that they want an American nanny and would be happy with a bloke.

Times getting on a bit wonder if it has been popped yet.

As a separate question, is Rastus still a boy's name?

Looks as if they are moving the show to Woga Woga land. Oh dear never mind. Where is she going to go shopping?

It will not be Botswana. Our new President is being very verbal about reflective or even semi reflective do gooders trying to tell him what to do with his environment.

Probably banned today.

Hadn't heard the news, has Charles blackballed him?

I'm irritated by their "Earth Day" caption on Instagram for the photo taken in the Rotorua Redwood forest:

It reads:
Of the 170 different species originally planted in the early 1900’s, only a handful of species, including these majestic Redwoods, remain today.


But a brief research shows me that:

The trees were planted at the beginning of the 20th century as part of a programme to assess the viability of various exotic tree species for commercial forestry in New Zealand.

- so it's not like it was an unmitigated disaster for the planet. [-X
There's rosemary, that's for remembrance. ...

Today this is known as bio-piracy. Rubber trees are a good example where they were taken from the Americas and exploited in the colonies to the detriment of their native countries. Potatoes is another example.

It may have come from higher than HRH PC. They want that woman out until the divorce.

The press are still talking about Botswana. Our President will not like it but I would look forward to seeing them spending weeks in the department of immigration as we have.

Whilst following my good lady around the Dior Exhibition at the V&A Museum in London town I was amused to stand close to one exhibit which as description that related that this particular designer was worn by the Megan. There was a steady stream of ladies reading this and then walking past muttering that she was a pure actress, had got in too deep, had ruined Harry, would ruin the Monarchy, would be divorced before too long, had no class, had no breeding, had no style and should look at Kate if she wanted to know how to behave. Totally unprompted but I found a fascinating insight into a not very popular woman.

Exhibition very good for someone that doesn't do fashion I had to admire the style and work involved in not only the garments but also the exhibition itself. And thank God for the Victorians leaving us such wonderful buildings as the V&A and the Natural History Museum

Rumour has it that they may cancel the official visit to Canada and the USA because she doesn't want the child to travel during its first year.

I think they want to go and live in Africa because the woglet will blend in nicely with the locals.

The Princess's bother has claimed today that the happy couple may move to southern California attracted by the lifestyle apparently. Actually this may work out quite well, the Prince could go to fancy dress parties and the Princess could resume her career, possibly in tv advertising or maybe a Princess Weather Girl on American TV.
