My heart goes out to Prince Charles when I see these precious photos. I see a little boy already acutely aware of his duty and birthright. It's almost like he was a 60 year old in the body of a 7 years old...

I hope somewhere in his life Prince Charles found things that allowed great childish abandon as we "regular people" had and took for granted. I do think the reason William and Harry are the most awesome royal men ever is in a large part due to their father's sensitivity of how he recognized and respected their need to be children (even if it made him personally uncomfortable due to his own formal upbringing at times).

The Stirling Smith will be the only Scottish venue to host the show, which will also visit three other museums and galleries across the country in 2008 and 2009.

BBC's birthday gift to Prince Charles

The BBC has been a dirty word at Clarence House since the Prince of Wales was caught on an "open" microphone in 2005 saying of Nicholas Witchell, its royal correspondent: "I mean, he's so awful, he really is."

Do we know if that picture of HRH done by Chuck Close will be exhibited?
BTW, did he paint that all by himself?

I remember Her Majesty The Queen as Princess Elizabeth being greeted on the tarmac on her trip to Treetops with a bouquet from a young man who born on the same day as Prince Charles. Wouldn't it be fantastic if this man, if he is still with us, to be a part of Prince Charles' birthday in some way?

I would think that there are more than a few Britons born on the same day as Charles, who knows there might be letters being sent out as we speak.

Including Paul Dacre, editor of the dreadful Daily Mail. I'm not entirely sure either Charles or Camilla would be happy to see him at the party.

Actually the Queen has very little to do with the selection of exhibition themes from the Royal Collection. All the Royal Collection Trustee meetings which oversee loan decisions are chaired by Prince Charles and the Queen never attends.

Default Chelsy Davy and Kate Middleton invited to Prince Charles 60th Birthday Bash

HM has invited Chelsy Davy and Kate Middleton to Prince Cahrles 60th Birthday to be hosted at Buckingham Palace.

This is to be a black tie evernt.

Does the Queen's invitation signify that these two girls have been accepted into the family.

As far as I know only fiance's and wives are allowed to parties at the palaces.

Is this an official bash, or were they invited perhaps as friends of the prince?

Maybe we should wait for the official guestlist. The article that Kate and Chelsy are invited was printed in ´The Sun´ first...
