Read from another website that Prince William couldn't do the polo over the weekend because Sandhurst officals wouldn't give him the time off. That must have been hard on him. He likes to play polo.:)

It's good that he is not treated any differently from the other trainee officers. He has a lifetime of being surrounded by 'yes' men ahead of him!!

Me too, I think it's great to see Harry taking on more duties and responsibilities. I really admire the way he has taken on a cause which he genuinely believes in, and is committed to.

Harry has been involved with charity work for orphans for several years now.
I think I can see that Harry has many different sides to his personality, some more interesting than others. It will be interesting to see where his charity work goes in the future.

He's definitly growing up.

I'm proud of how he is turned out and taking on more responsibilities. Since he was little I always felt he was someone who needed a little extra love and guidance. But he's doing so well.

I still would like to give him a big hug.

IMO, Harry only gets credit for the good work he does when big brother is out of circulation, such as being holed up at Sandhurst. Once William graduate, Harry will be back as the "black sheep" again.

what a strange thing to say, if that's the case then Harry might be enjoying good headlines for years to come since William seems to be ambivalent about his future role This idea of the good prince vs. bad prince might work for the tabloid that needs to spice up the Windsor house, but most readers are more sophisticated and action speaks louder than mere gossip

Maybe, then again maybe not. I think it is up to Harry to fill that "role". It all depends on his attitude and actions. Then again, who really knows

I think that it is wonderful that Prince Harry is becoming a gentleman, and that he started a charity for A.I.D.S. Bravo!

Why Harry's CO may have to sit out his parade

There is news of a minor disaster at Prince Harry's barracks at the Household Cavalry.

Regiment marks end of an era

YOU would be forgiven for thinking the military in Warminster was marking a death as the Last Post rang out across Parade Square at Battlesbury Barracks yesterday.

Partying Prince and pals pop in to Toko
By Daily Echo reporter

PRINCE Harry drank vodka and danced the night away at Bournemouth bar Toko as he took a break from army training on Thursday.

The party prince, currently based at Bovington, dropped in at the St Peter's Road venue twice and stayed for more than three hours in total.
His group of around 15 were given the VIP area of the bar and ordered vodka and Red Bull as they danced at the student Retox' night.

Jim Beedham, operations manager for Future 3000, owners of Toko, said: "It's fantastic that Harry is coming into Bournemouth and using the venue.....
