Mr O'Donovan has, in the past, also sent his letter to The Telegraph. The way this article from The Telegraph reads it seems that he didn't this year but they are Mr O'Donovan's figures they are using, which do differ from mine as I pointed out in an earlier post by how much. Now I have to decide whether to spend the next three weeks going back and trying to figure out which engagements I counted that he didn't - or spend the time re-writing my programme for the new school year and preparing the Year 12 work for the year - Year 12 will win out - sorry.
This year is appears that the DM did its own count - and that comes out very differently to Mr O'Donovan's list. Mine is, largely more than Mr O'Donovan's but similar.
Charles does more than Camilla because he does a lot on his own. So do Edward and Sophie but they do a lot where they both attend and where they both open things together e.g. Charles and Camilla might visit somewhere and Charles open something - 2 to Charles and 1 to Camilla but Edward and Sophie might visit somewhere and then both open something - 2 each.
Kate carried out quite a number of engagements on her own or with other members of the family while William was on RAF duty and he also carried out a number alone.
