Well I talked to a gal at the local "Back to School" Barbecue who teaches international economics at PSU and asked her point blank if Prince Andrews efforts to promote trade really make a difference. And being a Professor, she really hadn't any idea at all and just about less of who Prince Andrew was. . . .
![]() Anyway, Warren, since you know EVERYTHING, did PA design that coat of arms himself or was it already the House of York's arms or what? Thanks!

Coats of Arms are designed (devised) by the Royal College of Arms. The above is actually the shield from the full Arms. It is the standard royal field (as in my avatar) differentiated by the banner with the anchor to denote the Duke of York. Prince Andrew would have had some input into what he wanted in the banner.

Very nice, Ice. (I like the sound of that) P. Andrew looks dashing and quite intent.

Thanks again, Ice. Any pics of P Andrew are always welcome in my book. Seems he's focusing alot of his visits to the Asian market.

Indeed, Prince Andrew is the handsomest Prince. He is like French cognac ... becoming better with age. Seriously speaking, this is the first time I see Prince Andrew performing non-foreign non-business-related engagement.

and what's his salary on this? Sky, you were able to get ahold of that article for the Naval officer's pay, is there anything about what he makes being the UK's Roving Financial Ambassador?

Andrew doesn't receive a salary for his role as ambassador for trade and industry. You'll find this stated on his official site as well as the UK trade and industry site.

Really? He appears sometimes in a military context as well or on other engagements in the UK. His most high-profile jobs seem to be his foreign ones, though.
