HARRY HITS BONGOS AT ENGLAND CUP BASH - From The Mirror
By Alexandra Williams
PRINCE Harry bashes on a bongo as he celebrates England's World Cup glory at the players' all-night party in Sydney.
Wearing a team blazer over his rugby shirt, he leapt on the stage for his impromptu performance which had the victorious squad dancing and singing.
One onlooker said: "Harry was swigging the beer but he wasn't drunk. He was in his absolute element."

Harry's royal muster
By Charlie Hamilton
November 27, 2003
The world's royal-watching media gathered in the Queensland outback today to watch Britain's most celebrated jackaroo bringing in a herd.
Prince Harry, who has been in Australia for three months as part of a year off from study, looked at home in the saddle as he and five other cattle hands mustered bulls around Tooloombilla Station, near Roma in southern Queensland.
The 19-year-old, dressed in an open-neck blue shirt, jeans and brown Akubra hat, looked relaxed as he guided a herd of 30 short horn and short horn charolais cattle around part of the 16,000 property.
He rode his chestnut-coloured horse, Guardsman, alongside the steers as they were brought in from the outer reaches of the property, and at one stage galloped ahead to open the cattle pen.
He laughed and joked with the other station workers before dismounting and strolling over to a fence post where he posed for photographers.
Prince Harry has been working as a jackaroo during his stay; learning how to handle cattle, repair damaged fencing and other general farm maintenance.
"I have had a great time working out here, meeting people and learning a bit about how to be a jackaroo, and of course the rugby was absolutely fantastic," Prince Harry said.
"It's a great country."
The mid-morning temperature soared to about 30 degrees but this did not appear to bother the young prince.
His normal working day at the station begins about 7.30am (AEST) and ends about 6pm with a two-hour lunch break when the Australian heat is at its most fierce.
Tooloombilla Station is owned by Annie and Noel Hill.
Mrs Hill was a long-time friend of Harry's late mother Princess Diana, while Mr Hill is a son of millionaire polo star Sinclair Hill, who is close to Harry's father, Prince Charles.
Referring to Princess Diana's former butler Paul Burrell's comments earlier this week about a meeting between himself and Prince Harry, a Palace spokeswoman said: "There are no plans for a meeting to take place while Harry is in Australia.
"If anything was to take place it would involve both he (sic) and William."
Asked about Harry's feelings towards Burrell, the spokeswoman reiterated the sentiments expressed in a joint statement by the princes following publication of the former butler's reveal-all book about Diana.
The young men said in the statement they could not believe someone who was entrusted with so much "could abuse his position in such a cold and overt betrayal".
Prince Harry will remain in Australia for the next few weeks but will return to the UK to spend Christmas with his family.

From Hello!
27 NOVEMBER 2003
Prince Harry has been showing off his newly-learned skills as a "jackaroo" in the Australian outback. The 19-year-old, who is spending part of his gap year working on a cattle ranch, took to the plains with a team of his fellow cattle hands as the world's media looked on.
The prince, a keen polo player, is already an accomplished horseman, but herding cattle is a far cry from winning chukkas. Harry looked to be thoroughly enjoying himself, however, as he and his mount Guardsman helped herd 30 bulls into a mustering yard.
"It's a great country," said the young royal. "I have had a great time working out here, meeting people and learning a bit about how to be a jackaroo."
Dressed in a brown Akubra hat, open-neck blue shirt and jeans, the teenager laughed and joked with the other jackaroos as they steered the cattle around the property.
Harry has been staying on the 16,000-hectare Tooloombilla Station ranch in southern Queensland. His long working-day starts at seven in the morning and doesn’t end until six in the evening.
The cattle station is owned by Annie and Noel Hill, who were long-time friends of Princess Diana. And Noel, the son of millionaire polo star Sinclair Hill, once coached Prince Charles.
