Aha! Them two have been in cahoots together and plotting this move without giving us any clue! :lol:

I love seeing stuff like this. It must make Charles feel so proud as a father to be handing the reins of this presidency over to his oldest son.

Glad to see that these spaces are being preserved for quiet moments and happy play.
 
As always, love the Duke with kids, and I have to say this,the man has a smile that makes you smile too.
 
This kind of story from the Daily Mail is why the Cambridges and KP should be pissed at the press. It is bad enough when they focus on Kate's hair and dress, but William's loom bands is more important than why he was there and what he did? Come on. A kid gave it to him there and he put it on.

This kind of article makes me think that DM reporters don't need to know the definition of words. Wearing a bracelet that a child have him doesn't make William a fan of the product. Nor does it make Kate one, as she got hers in the same manner. David Beckham might be a fan... Or his kids might be, and he's just a good dad.

The Duke of Cambridge paid tribute to the "common effort and common sacrifices" made during the First World War as he opened a new permanent exhibition to the conflict. After touring the Imperial War Museum's new display which brings the war to life through personal possessions, priceless artefacts, military hardware and films he described the attraction as a "spectacular project".-

You and I are on the same page here. Wills has a very engaging smile, and when he's with kids, you can see he's having a blast. One day, I'd love to see him interacting with children. Bet he'd put a lot of teachers to shame.

Leave it to the Daily Rag to turn a sweet gesture into something negative. The bracelet was given to him by a child, and the fact that he chose to wear it is sweet. I know that whenever my preschool kids make me something, I make sure to display it where they can see it. It lets them know that I appreciate their thoughtfulness, and love. William's gesture says the same thing. It's not a negative thing, but just the opposite.

I think they are already pissed at most of the press, and with good reason.
 
Is it just me or does anyone else think that the press just loves to mess with the minds of people and try to make the very people that they are covering look bad so that there is this anger that builds over time and then people that buy the papers start to believe this junk they write of which none of it is basically true. Isn't this a form of manipulation?
Why couldn't they just report it the correct way and be done with it?

Duke of Cambridge contributes to cookbook
A new cookbook, The Dragons’ Kitchen, features a contribution from Prince William – but not in the way you’d expect!

The 32 year-old Prince has written the foreword to the new book, which is a collection of recipes put together by Welsh Rugby players in order to raise money for the Welsh Rugby Charitable Trust (WRCT). The Duke of Cambridge is Patron of the trust, which was set up in 1972, with the aim to support the families of those rugby players who have been injured while playing the sport in Wales.

Among the Welsh rugby stars to contribute to the book are Sam Warburton, with his recipe for Chilli Con Carne; Alex Cuthbert with his Cheesy Pasta Bake, and Richard Hibbard with a recipe for a Spicy Veggie Burger. Even a few ex-players got into the act, with Gareth Thomas including a recipe for White Chocolate Berry Cheesecake, Richard Parks writing one for Welsh Roast Lamb and Derek Quinnell revealing how to made Madora’s Risolles.

First-
I'd say the Duke has found another child who will adore him for life in Spencer! Not surprised! Also not surprised that Spencer's mom got choked up! Who wouldn't? When are Spencer and Wills going to play footy in the KP garden?
Why is there a ram/ goat in the pics?
