You know how frugal Charles is, no reason to start heating up a room or two just because the prodigal son wants to stay for a night or two. They only heat the rooms they stay in anyway and the rest of the time perhaps only bare minimum needed. Besides, nobody has time to shadow ginger around the corridors at night while he aimlessly wonders around trying to find secret documents.
I do wonder what H has been up to since seeing Daddy Dearest... will he make it out of the country unnoticed? will we next see him at the invictus thing in Canada? or will he pop up before then?

And surely we'll get a pap shot of Megs today....

I was annoyed AF when I saw Hawwy in his RR with bodyguards AND A full blue lights parade of police cars escorting him. Perhaps I am being u reasonable but it really did grind my gears
I wonder if this was a request from KC who was only prepared to give Harry a small window of time and didn't want him bleating in the press that traffic delays kept him from the bedside :rolleyes:

Simon Dorante- Day is allegedly going to approach Harry for DNA. For those who don’t know, Simon believes he is Charles and Camilla’s son, despite strong evidence that he is not.
Headlines are driving me mad, but the comments give me hope that most people can see through this
Can h go to the door of Adelaide Cottage and ring the bell? Or would security carry him to the cliffs of Dover if he tries something like this?

If orders are given for no contact , then no one will be let into the grounds. 😎

I bet Andrew is kicking himself for being an idiotic pedalo befriender and having terrible judgment because this would have been his time to shine and show the world his "talents" and "ambitions".

The last few days makes me really appreciate how PoW can so effectively grey-rock the press and all of the nonsense. William is not needy to be liked by the press and doesn't crave positive spin all of the time. Whoever helped him with therapy deserves credit as well. I think this is what pisses off the pro-KC and pro-Harkle press they can't force a reaction out of PoW and that William's ship is not as leaky (information wise) - much as they try. They are probably worried about what happens if William gets to top job earlier than expected.
William has worked hard to gain a close team around him too. He's worked with a lot of the same people for years and they have a clear way of doing things and are very loyal. He's always been smart about who he tells what to. Unlike his brother.

Angela Levin says there is no way Ginge was invited


I actually do agree with Angela here.

Harry wasn't invited. He made his own decision to come so he could ease his own conscience and his own public image. He had no regard for what Charles wanted. He thought Charles would drop everything he had planned and cater for Harry? Please.

Personally, I think he came so that his Invictus trip next week wouldn't be overshadowed by "Harry go see your father" like what people did to Smeg when she ignored her father's heart attack.

It's all about Harry.

I agree with you. And to deflect from African Parks which has conveniently fallen out of the headlines. To be that self-serving is astonishing, he mustn't give a tit about KC3 really.

No of course he doesn't.

Turned on the tv after my shift, caught part of segment about the BRF on BBC. They were talking about how along with others, William was also taking on Charles's duties along with his own engagements. Had the investiture ceremony today to recognise all the people who have done good things, the sort of engagement that should bring solace in the midst of troubled times (lovely way to put it). Also that the family had dealt with the situation well, shared main details yet kept everything else private. Sparry was mentioned - that he'd visited. The Pup started barking then so I missed out on what they were saying 😂 I think it was something like there were hopes for a reconciliation but it was a short meeting - don't quote me on that though.

Yesterday also I got the feeling that there was a 'we hoped for a reconciliation but ....'.


I think one of the biggest problems is the invisible work they do that is not immediately obvious to people. It's the same with any job that doesn't only involve straight up physical labour, there will always be people complaining that unless they see a shovel moving, that person is not really working at all.

Most negative comments under any news story about the royals are about them doing nothing but cutting ribbons and eating free lunches wearing designer clothes. Even if we're not talking about royals per se, desk jobs and mental labour are not valued by some people. They also do not see how tiring in reality it is to attend events in formal wear, having to remember everyone's names, background, engage in conversation, look interested no matter what you are presented with, working to advance the issue you are promoting in that event, going from place A to B, then to C and D. It doesn't matter whether your arse is parked inside a luxury car or you're flying somewhere in business class, it's still not fun, it's work. You're tired, your legs and back ache, it's exhausting even if it's not the same as physical labour. And then that's only one part of it. People think royals have staff to do everything for them but if you are not a Harry but more like an Anne, you do the hours yourself and don't just rely on being quickly briefed while hurrying to some event. I'd love to see any of the complainers for example read all the boring documents Charles has to read at 2 am to be informed of all that goes on in the country and aware of the current legislation.

So, what they would have to do is make people see what it is that they actually do and how it makes a difference in people's lives. You can say royals have no place in modern society but then again, no tourist is going to visit a republic just to see a presidential palace and perhaps the parliament. Royals do have a place in supporting charities, working as a uniting figureheads that offer stability over long term without political leanings. I've also noticed the quality standards for many things are higher in monarchies compared to republics for historical reasons. Craftspeople for example had to strive to acquire royal warrant of appointment and you did not get there with shoddy work. This quality issue and the continuing traditions can be seen very clearly for example when talking about restoration of historical buildings; years ago I was living in a republic and they were renovating an old building. It didn't work out because "we just don't have the knowhow in this country for repairing this kind of thing" and a specialist had to be flown in from a country that still has a royal court. This all coming from someone who has observed the differences for decades having lived in both kinds of countries, monarchies and republics.

As long as people see royals as only useless handshakers cutting ribbons, they will want to get rid of them. I think Prince Philip had the right idea. I don't think I ever knew how much he influenced things until he passed away and I learned a lot more about the Duke of Edinburgh's Award and his work with environmental issues. Sorry for the long post, hope this makes sense at all!
You're right. Read a comment about Charles yesterday, that he's driven to an engagement or two, walks around for a bit, then needs a holiday. And the same for the other royals.

Most people don't understand how difficult a public-facing job is, which is why they're always so happy to harass those in such roles - cashiers, shop assistants, bank tellers, post officers, teachers etc. Sure, some aren't the best at their work or are rude, but can't really blame them when they're dealing with this ingratitude and entitlement on a daily basis. Would make anyone lose interest. And then the royals have the added burden of always having cameras on them - most not under their control. And everything goes on the internet to be circulated around the world forever.

These are the people who think that tourists come from all across the globe to "see some crappy old buildings", and that the historical buildings should be turned into shopping malls or maybe shelters for the homeless (a noble cause, but even those places won't begin to address the problem).

It remains to be seen just how long he will

i have mild IBS had it on and off since I was a child back in the 60’s it was call S p a s t i c
colon then (had space that word out as it came up with stars as it’s an offensive word )
Long long list of things I should not eat that made me a fussy eater in the end I ate what I liked knew what would set off I went years with no problems
Then 5 years ago bam
I don’t like spicy food so that’s good
I have found out by trial and error that I have a mild dairy intolerance so I have oatley Barista milk on cereal in cofffee which is yummy only cows milk in tea I have a actimal every day has to be flavoured one though
My oldest granddaughter was breast fed till a year old as a my daughter said it was free and no additives as soon as dairy was added she got really poorly got asthma tried soya milk no good
She had tests and it was a protein allergy
That is in soya too
She has grown out of it now but is careful with any thing that has dairy in as it can upset her tummy if she over indulges at a birthday party
Oddly she hates the taste of dairy cheese prefers what I call the plastic stuff
She is very lean but healthy
The specialist said our bodies can’t digest cows milk properly and it might not cause stomach problems but could cause other issues like skin rashes bloating headaches and joint problems
My doctors said years ago that I'm mildly lactose intolerant (can't have hot milk and hot milky desserts, but everything else I can have in small quantities. Covid robbed me of most of my love for cheese though), and can digest nutrients from animal sources better than plant sources. Quite a big problem in a country where many people are vegetarians. The number of arguments I've had with potential grooms who wanted me to become a vegetarian/vegan and wouldn't believe that it would be really harmful for me 🤦 As if our bodies aren't already troubled and stressed enough 🙄

I've come to realise though that this stubbornness has little to do with beliefs and more to do with control. Look at Ms Vegan (except on the weekends and on trips roasting chickens) 🙄 That eggy wedding menu tasting story always leaves me wondering how someone could tolerate her 🤦

"Prince William to 'speak about King's cancer diagnosis and what his family have been through' as he returns to Royal duties this morning for the first time since Charles's treatment and Kate's abdominal surgery"


"But... but... I was supposed to do THAT!"

That's a nice article in the Mail. Sums up our future King very well. A true professional who will carry out his duty, understands his place, and is dedicated and caring towards his family. 💓

There was a royal correspondent from The Times on GMB and she reported that the King felt tired following "a procedure" on Monday, hence the short meeting with Harry. Which reading between the lines would indicate that he hadn't expected Harry to come or made plans in his diary to see him...
There was obviously no communication. The media has shaped this visit as if H were a loving, worried son and KC was eager to have him here. But the few facts we know do not bear this out.

Suppose you and your child hsd exactly these circumstances. You call to tell him the news. You tell him you are going to your vacation home to recuperate. He says he is coming to see you. The most vital part of the conversation would be WHEN. When are you arriving?

The fact that there was an entourage for H means that his flight details were known. Arrangements were made for him. But they were also made for KC snd QC. So why was the helicopter and the car ordered for so close a time…to only allow for the shortest of visits?

I have read that KC likes to avoid difficult situations. I dont think he wanted this visit. Catering to Harry might well upset Camilla and certainly POW. But H’s PR had forced him to, at the least, have some public pretense of a meeting…so not to be the bad guy in the narrative.

But he had his escape route…the car and the helicopter…at the ready. This ‘visit’ may not have even been 45 minutes…it could have been much shorter.

Harry has no comfort to bring his father. Whether he was seeking gossip to sell, money, or a PR moment…the human part of KC knows it wasn’t about love for him. The man has cancer and being used for mercenary purposes by his grifter son and daughter-in-law must hurt. But it also would put the final ‘nail in the coffin’.for the relationship, if it were me.

I think he made it very clear by the quick exit…that there would be no reconciliation, only the courtesy one affords a forced meeting with a business associate. No love involved at all.
