British Royalty...
I've just received a mail from one of my friends in the US asking if I would give an update on the monarch here in the UK.
Well, always happy to help whenever I can Elli from Cleveland.
Today is quite a red letter day for our royal family, as it happens.
Today, Prince Harry begins his officer training at Sandhurst, which is our top military training facility. And, I'm extremely proud to say, the establishment where my late stepfather won the cadet's sword for being the best cadet in his year.
Prince Harry has had a mixed press, but I think he has behaved pretty much like any teenage boy- with one exception. If I thought any child of mine would sport the swastica- even as a joke, I would not be amused. We are often kidded along by our peer group into believing this, or that, would be fun, or fashionable. Let's all think for ourselves, and at all times.
Despite that faux pas, I wish him well. Goodness knows, which one of us can stand up and say we never made a mistake. And let's all of us be thankful that we didn't do so in the public eye.
Love to all, and happy reading!
Susan
