Thanks for the links Iceflower. Nice to see Sophie arrived in an electric car. I noticed that Charles has now got one of those too. Much better for the environment (even if the car itself costs £75,000!)

I read this and immediately thought what do they do with the string. Read it again and decided it had to be string instruments. Clearly I haven't had enough sleep and or caffeine this morning.

The Gazette, March 15, 2019:
Crown Office
In accordance with the direction of HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN Letters Patent have passed the Great Seal of the Realm, dated the 10th March 2019 granting unto Her Majesty’s Son, His Royal Highness Prince Edward Antony Richard Louis, Earl of Wessex, K.G., G.C.V.O., and the heirs male of his body lawfully begotten the dignity of Earl of Forfar.
Elaine Chilver The notice in The Gazette was published with much more speed than the notice of the letters patent for the dukedom of Sussex, gazetted two months after the announcement in 2018, or the dukedom of Cambridge, gazetted a month after the announcement in 2011.

Thanks. It would be very nice if the title had been gender neutral, but I would have been shocked to see the Queen deviate from her standard practice to do that. "male heirs of the body" is just as expected.
