This is from The People Newspaper - it may or may not be true, but my guess is that most of it's probably true..
THE CRAZY DEMANDS OF CHARLES
THE silver teaspoon for his morning cuppa must be placed in the saucer at an angle of exactly 5 o'clock.
His fluffy white bath towel should be specially folded so he can wrap and dry himself without exertion.
His socks are turned down so he can slip them on with minimum effort. And at bedtime his teddy bear must be tucked beneath the covers so its paws don't get cold.
They sound like the crazy requests of a spoilt Hollywood superstar - but these are just some of the daily demands of PRINCE CHARLES.
A royal source told The People: "Charles's lifestyle would put Louis XIV to shame and is totally inappropriate in 21st century Britain.
"From the moment he wakes up to the moment he goes to bed, his every whim is catered for."
The Prince may be feeling hard done-by after claims by a former valet sparked a sleazy sex scandal, but nothing will shake Charles out of his pampered routine.
While the Queen is trying to modernise the Monarchy her son is still living a life of outrageous royal excess - with a staggering 85 SERVANTS, plus nine gardeners at his country home, Highgrove.
Former butler Paul Burrell, the Prince's ex-valet Ken Stronach and a string of courtiers have all confirmed Charles's rigid demands.
He is obsessive about his routine and will fly into a rage if anything is changed or out of place.
Our source said: "He is so spoilt he has almost forgotten how to do the most basic of tasks for himself.
"On his tour of the Gulf last week he even called an aide over to take his shoes off for him.
"But this is the man who needs an aide to hold the specimen bottle when he gives a sample of urine."
Insiders say that because Charles doesn't receive money from the Civil List, he believes his pampered life is his business.
But here is the startling truth:
Morning tea
Charles's "wake-up" tray of tea and toast is delivered every morning by a senior valet - and has to be laid out with military precision.
He takes strong Earl Grey tea with a splash of milk. The china cup and saucer must be placed to the right of the tray with a silver tea spoon pointing outwards at an angle of 5 o'clock.
A plate in the centre of the tray must have the Prince of Wales Feathers at 12 o'clock.
The royal toast - made from Duchy of Cornwall wholemeal bread - is lined up in a silver toast rack, never on a plate. Three balls - no more, no less - of chilled, organic butter are placed in a small butter dish. A silver butter knife rests on top of a starched, white linen napkin.
Breakfast
At weekends Charles sometimes wants a light, cooked breakfast. He insists on his own Duchy of Cornwall organic sausages, with grilled mushrooms and tomatoes.
A pot of English mustard has to be placed on the left of the tray with a pot containing freshly ground black pepper directly behind it. A tiny dish of sea salt (flakes, not grains) must be lined up level with the pepper on the opposite side of the tray.
Bathroom
While Charles takes his morning tea his valet pulls back the curtains and picks up Charles's clothes left on the floor from the night before.
The servant then goes into the en-suite bathroom to draw Charles a morning bath.
It has to be deep, warm but not too hot and scented with expensive Floris bath oil. Before stepping into the tub Charles shaves and cleans his teeth. The valet has already squeezed a precise amount of Macleans toothpaste onto the Prince's toothbrush.
Despite his wealth, Charles has a silver gadget engraved with his crest to squeeze the last drop out of the tube.
A chair beside the bath is draped with a warm, fluffy white towel.
It must be placed length-wise, with both ends folded in to the middle so Charles can rise from the bath, sit on the chair, and wrap himself up with ease.
Clothes
As Charles takes his bath a servant lays out his first set of clothes. The Prince often changes outfits five times a day - and insists on matching ties to shirts and socks to silk pocket handkerchiefs.
He has more than 200 ties but chooses one from six picked out by the valet. Charles's £2,000 bespoke suits, made by Saville Row tailors Anderson and Sheppard, are also colour co-ordinated.
Charles's shirts are handmade by exclusive Turnbull and Asser. His valet carefully folds the chosen one on the bed. All the buttons are undone and the cufflinks already in place.
A footman spends at least an hour polishing Charles's shoes, picked from a selection of £1,800 John Lobb leather lace ups.
The shoes must be placed, laces loosened, by a chair in front of a bedside table. And to save Charles even more effort his socks are on the chair seat, folded so he only has to slip his foot inside and pull them up.
Bedtime
If Charles wants to watch TV before going to sleep his valet places The Times TV page - neatly ironed and folded - on a footstool. The remote control is lined up beside it with the television set on standby.
Charles slips into his silk dressing gown, which has his crest on the breast pocket. A tattered teddy bear in a red jumper which Charles has treasured since childhood sits on his bedside table during the day - next to Charles's favourite photo of Camilla in a silver frame.
But at night the valet has to tuck teddy up in bed with its paws under the covers so they don't get cold.
A glass of iced water is on hand. Charles insists on round ice balls rather than cubes, believing they "chink" less noisily in the glass.

FRUSTRATED PRINCE IS A BOY & HEIR
By Susan Quilliam Top Psychologist
CHARLES has two warring sides to his character.
They are the little boy desperate for love, and the frustrated, powerless heir to the Throne.
Firstly, his need to be cosseted stems from his abnormal childhood.
His mother was away on tours, he was raised by nannies and taught that Duty came first.
Then he was packed off to Gordonstoun school. He never had a normal adolescence and his teddy bear shows he still hangs on to his earliest, happiest memories.
It also shows he wants to be protected - which is now Camilla's role.
Yet he's a demanding boss, because he's surrounded by people who never answer back.
He dumps his dirty clothes like a teenager - and throws a strop if he doesn't get his own way.
Because of the Queen's long reign, he feels he has no real power. And he's frustrated he can't do what he wants, like marrying Camilla.
So he tries to prove he IS in charge by being bossy. His obsessive attention to detail also shows his insecurity.

These are quite the list of demands!
"Prince of Wales Feathers at 12 o'clock, tea spoon pointing at an angle of 5 o'clock, socks folded so he only has to slip his foot inside and pull them up ..."
Not only does Charles sound spoiled and pampered in this story, he sounds down right lazy!
Interesting story, Binny, thanks for sharing it. ... I don't feel so bad now that my only outrageous demand is for soy milk and raw sugar for my coffee!

I like mine at 4:30
such a hassle to do that ... hopefully all socks are freshly washed.
Of the 85 staff, only 5 do 'real' work .... and of those, one is busy setting up the socks, and frenching the sheets.
"... I don't feel so bad now that my only outrageous demand is for soy milk
and raw sugar 
for my coffee!LOL!
It's interesting isn't it?
I remember seeing a video clip of Charles, Harry and William together at polo. The boys were cleaning their boots, and Charles made a comment about the amount of time they were taking.
The boys both looked at each other and William mumbled something like, "Yes, but you have someone do yours for you"!
I got the impression that even the boys thought he was a little spoilt!

Charles does comes off as quite pampered and spoiled, doesn't he? I wonder if he was like this as a child? I can't imagine Prince Phillip who has such little tolerance for primping and priming tolerating this kind of behaviour in his eldest son and the future King of Great Britain!
... Wonder what Freud would say of all this!
