    Nobody is asking or expecting you too. Just as nobody is asking you to give a crap about all the RIP threads which are posted.

    Interesting that people are saying that they bring more money in than they cost. That is unknowable as the royal family or government won't release the cost of their security. I have met both Betty and Brian (and The Fence) and was mostly underwhelmed by the whole experience. I assume that they felt the same, but at least they managed to hide their nerves.

    The latest offspring will continue to be a drain on the taxpayer for life. They already have enough to live on for many lifetimes. Instead of yearly pay rises it would be nice to see them have some austerity until there's no-one living on the streets, that should be long enough for me.

    How will the rabidly nationalistic brexiteer types who camped outside the hospital waving their union flags dressed as pearly kings and queens handle the name Louis? My estimation of the pair has gone up , feels like an epic trolling of those types to me and good on them.

    Named after Louis Armstrong I believe. Or perhaps a dead relative, who served this country during the war (in Burma) and who subsequently murdered by the IRA?

    But I very much doubt the rabid nationalistic brexiteers camped outside the hospital give a monkeys about your estimation of the pair to be honest.

    Forward planning; post Brexit, the UK will invade Europe and install him as King Louis XVIII (or however many!) of France!

    XX... Louis XVIII Was not king of France but reigned as King of the French. Louis XIX reigned 20 minutes before abdicating.

    My pleasure. Just so you know, there is a descendant of the Bourbon who technically would already be Louis XX should he be called upon to reign. He is Spanish, and the great great great grandson of Queen Victoria as well so would sort out Brexit and Gibraltar in one go.

    I thought it was contextual and quite quippy. No need to be nasty.


    Perhaps some Cranberry juice might help

    Kate's stylist was obviously having a laugh, dressing her as Mia Farrow in Rosemary's baby...

    Look what the Russians did in 1918. It hasn't gone well for them since has it?
