Surely I can if I wish.

I am comparing two adults Zara and Beatrice.

Zara is a wonderful example to Beatrice,who could learn much from her cousin.

I wonder if Zara has ever dreamt of being a princess herself? Most girls have that dream and seeing your mother and your grandmother at tiara events it must have been hard for Zara to realise that her mother decided against a title for her. Especially as her cousins all do have titles...

Well, she now is a "crowned" sports personality, so it doesn't matter anymore, but I wonder if she ever wished things were different?

Of course we can only speculate but I honestly think since Zara's personality and character are so strong that I doubt she'll be bothered.

Of course, judging from today's POV I agree. I just wonder how it was for her in her teens or pre-teens?

I am sure she did... just about every little girl dreams about being a princess. Today however I don't think that she cares one way or another. She has done so many great things on her own that she does not need to have a title.

Zara has been at the hospital after Mike collapsed in agony following a tackle in the 64th minute of Saturday's match. Mike had bruising to the liver and has been ruled out of the tournamnet. Poor Mike and Zara.

I'm sure he will pull through fast. Poor guy's had so many injurys, but he seems so masculine it would be hard to hurt him.

Here's an article from the mail about Mike's injury. It seems really serious and painful.

Speaking of that...haven't they been going out a long while? They may unofficially engaged...Zara seems really low key and not the big wedding type. So I don't think she would want all the hype...

This is kinda off topic but I was wondering if any one knew what breed of horse Toytown is and what breed Zara's other horses are

According to Wikipedia, Toytown's breeding isn't known.

Sportsmail can reveal that the horse was the product of an accidental liaison in a field in Kent between a recently castrated two-year-old Irish stallion and a four-year-old Dutch chestnut mare. Not exactly the bluest of blood and not what you would call thorough breeding

Skydragon, right about now dont you think the owner of the sire is kicking himself for gelding the colt? There was a famous racehorse in the US called Forego that did absolutely nothing until it was gelded, and then went on to win and win everything in sight. The owner was quoted saying to the vet who had cut the colt "I paid you $500 to take them off. I'll give you $500,000 to put them back on!"
