[Givenchy]

Yes, she was there. Try typin her name in the isifa gallery and press search. Nice pics of her but no Wills around

Kate on 4 May

Will was on 5 May.

[Givenchy]

ok so what, she was there on the 4 May and he on the 5 may? *confused*

It kind of rude in my eyes if they didnt at least say 'hallo' if they were there at the same time.

And, of course, if they did see each other in public, the photographers would take pictures and the newspapers would then announce that they are back together. Or probably they would say that William was begging Kate to take him back since the tabloids seem to be having more problems with the breakup than William and Kate.

They were there on different days, although one girl in both sets of pictures seems to be wearing the same clothes (beige looking sweater with green shirt underneath).

What training is he recieving in the Blues and Royals?

Does anyone lnow when William finishes his training at Dorset/Lulworth and the live fire part of the training? Will he attend the Trooping of the Colour in June?

The guy that is sitting beside William (on the grass) looks identical to the guy walking with Kate with the burgundy sweater - you get a better glimpse of him in the second page. Does anyone else see this? Is it in fact the same guy?

I think I read that he is a friend of William's with a name of Jaime _____.

[kjrn]

I believe his name is James Meade (sp?). His sister Lucy (?) is in the pics too. They were there because their brother is a rider (if that is the correct term).

Son and daughter of Richard Meade, who was an olympic equestrian. He has another son called Harry.

[Duchess]

i wonder if catherine is still friends with some of the people in william's circle or was she always interested in equestrian events and just happened to be there.

Isn't it at his birthday party that Harry made public his fondness for vintage German military fashion?

What happens at these horse trials? Why do the royals enjoy attending these events?

From what I've read (because I am not an equestrian competitor) about these trials is that the Badminton Horse Trials is the THE competition to be in, if you are an equestrian competitor. If you read an article Skydragon placed under Zara Philips in which she withdrew because of the firmness of the ground, it talks about the importance of the competition. In addition, I googled up the Badminton Horse Trials and read a little about them. So, since Zara was involved in the trials, I believe her family was there for support.
