I would think, given William's work schedule, what's likely to happen is he'll go up to visit them when he's off work.
That's sad for William, not having his little family around when he comes home.
Will Kate and George join William in Anglesey once he goes back to work?
He stays on the base when he's working so it's the best solution
I have a doubt... If the Queen stays in Balmoral until October, does this mean the Christening will take place just from then?
The general consensus is that the Christening will be scheduled after the Queen returns from Balmoral.I have a doubt... If the Queen stays in Balmoral until October, does this mean the Christening will take place just from then?

politically it would be good for it to take place in Scotland but that would mean the BRF accommodating the ABC (Archbishop of Canterbury) and the Godparents and their spouses at least.
Less pressure on HMQ and DoE (who will be convalescing) if it takes place in London
EDIT: or Windsor
I wonder if they HAVE to use the ABC. He isn't even the same one who married them. They (and Charles) seem to have a closer relationship to the Bishop of London. He is the person who confirmed Catherine, if memory serves, as well as delivered the sermon at their wedding. Nothing against the ABC, of course, but I'd want to choose a person with whom I already had a relationship when it comes to something so personal as the christening of your first child.

COE exists in Scotland but good point - could offend COS.

I think we already knew the christening will most likely take place a little later.
If it's true, I don't see anything creepy about it if William feels a closer connection to Diana there. I personally don't visit cemeteries that often, but my husband visits his mother's grave on a regular basis. Everyone is different.Is just me or these stories about them taking the baby to Diana's grave seem a bit creepy?

It is more than a little creepy, I don't believe a word of it but, it sure does sell!!Is just me or these stories about them taking the baby to Diana's grave seem a bit creepy?
Very creepy IMO and I don't believe a word of it.
Personally, I don't believe that the press would ever have been given the information of this nature. If/when William and family do decide to go to Althorp and spend time there remembering his mother, I would almost guarantee it would be a very private occasion.
As far as taking baby George there, I think William has enough brains to realize that a visit such as this would be more beneficial if/when the child is actually old enough to understand and appreciate the visit.
