The King congratulates to TVE in its 50 anniversary

"Long years of life and successes " Don Juan Carlos wishes to Spanish Television

On the occasion of the half century of life of the television in Spain, the King don Juan Carlos has wanted to congratulate TVE on this day of Christmas, in a message that has spread the Television newscast 1. These are the words of the monarch:

" I want to congratulate very cordial to Spanish Television in its 50 anniversary. I want to be grateful for the professionalism and their work to executives, technical personnel and equipments to show the reality of Spain and to approach the rest of the world. There are great the things that we have shared, because of it I transmit an affectionate recollection to all and very especially you me have accompanied all those in numerous activities of the Wreath. To Spanish Television thank you and long years of life and successes ".
 
I was expecting that they would put up a photo of him and the Queen since they only released a photo of Zarzuela for their Christmas card. I had also expected a photo of Their Majesties together on their Christmas card since it shouldn't have been too hard to get them together for a photo. Oh well, maybe no one really knows what goes on in Zarzuela. Anyway, Merry Christmas y'all.
 
to be completely honest, I wasn't expecting a christmas photoshoot, they haven't done one since 2003 so I guess they don't do that kind of things anymore...:rolleyes:

I guess in next year's speech we'll see a pic of F, L and their two girls behind the King, at least I hope so:)

This Friday, January 5th, agreeing with the Feast of the Three Wise Men, the Monarch celebrates his 69th birthday. Among the numerous gifts that he usually receives from friends and heads of state around the world, there are some of the best wines. The King is a great wine lover and more than one thousand of the most exquisite national and foreign bottles are stored in La Zarzuela and Royal Palace.

The great number of presents received in La Zarzuela for the birthday of the Monarch agrees with the enormous volume of gifts ("nearly one hundred per day", according to a source near the royal family) that arrives to the palace, during the Christmas season: baskets with fruits and vegetables, boxes of seafood, caviar or foie gras that and, of course, candies.

But, among the statesmen, the Arab monarchs are those who offer the most sumptuous gifts, like the first yacht Fortuna (a present from the late Fahd of Saudi Arabia) or the generous gifts of king Hussein of Jordan: a pure blood horse, the palace of La Mareta in Lanzarote and a jewel of incalculable value: a meth-acrylate pistol inlaid with precious stones.

Nevertheless, not all the presents that are received in Zarzuela are well-intended. Some letters contain threats (most of them from mental diseased people) and a few packages hold disagreeable surprises, like the one received a few years ago in a small, perfectly decorated package: nothing less than a poop, which someone sent to the Monarch. :ohmy:

:ROFLMAO: :lol: This is to be expected for anybody in the public eye... I'm sure it is all taken care of in the right way!

BTW, I doubt the King looks through all of these gifts himself, so if something unpleasant was sent to him, he probably wouldn't open it anyway ;)
