All of them are wearing an element of the plum hue, even Frederick's tie.

Lets not forget how Prince Henrik's last few pronouncements were received. Yes it will be sad for Meghan but imagine if the external pressures and stresses Thomas Sr has been exposed to exacerbated an early or even known dementia. We thought my dad was deaf and stubborn when really a dementia...

My son David's middle name, and welsh. but I guess they have gone with the french version as it is in many of the family names.

Mary wears bright colours and also the more modern grey/taupe. http://imageupper.com/i/?S1200010080021K14979595001365356 https://www.facebook.com/detdanskekongehus/photos/pcb.534303343574918/534302536908332/?type=3&theater

There are a lot of emotions that come with brushes with the end of life - whilst I don't agree with the wording and the way it has been released, PH was previously Catholic (I am Protestant myself btw) and maybe as he approaches his winter days is feeling more the loss of his 'birth'...

Not sure it is see through, more an unfortunate pleating of fabric - sitting forward catches more light than the folds in shadow. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DGFFIipXgAAPB8d.jpg

Not sure what thread to put this to, but further to the photos comparing Prince Philip with Prince Harry, here is one of Prince Charles showing his resemblance to PH. http://cdn.images.express.co.uk/img/dynamic/130/590x/secondary/Prince-Charles-beard-964572.jpg From article Former Daily...

From the shoulders down it could be Princess Caroline, she has worn shoes like that

I wonder if someone (say at Balmoral ) tweeted to say [leaving at 3am] to be in london for all staff meeting at Buckingham palace, they might have known before hand but nothing said publicly. be a big logistical step - buses? or trains to get how many people there if called urgently at 3am :w00t:

Thank you Muhler you have struck at the root and branch of the whole situation:rofl:

sleep over at Grannie's Wonder if with Earl and countess of Wessex o'seas if the youngsters are having a sleep over W/Grannie!

Turkey and ANZAC relations Thanks Muhler, you condense a dreadful time quite well. The Gallipoli campaign was not only a character moment for Australia and New Zealand, and a powerful step for the New Turkey, it also forged (thanks to a man of integrity) a lasting AnZAC tradition of sharing...

Nice touch with the flowers the thirteenth photo on the following link PRÉSENTATION DU PRINCE JACQUES ET LA PRINCESSE GABRIELLA DE MONACO - PRINCESS MONARCHY shows that a protea is included in the floral display, a nod to the South African side of the family. Sorry I don't know how to link...

Australian War memorial Here is a lovely picture of the beautiful tomb of the unknown soldier - around the walls are mosaics depicting the various service men and women - an airman, a seaman, an nurse and infantryman. Hall of Memory | Australian War Memorial It is a real place of reflection...

Wall of rememberance Just to add - around ANZAC day and Armistice Day the number of poppies increase. I have never seen as many as seemed to be there when the Duke and Duchess were there. The poppy thing was not intended on design - the names are on panels and we (and all the others) have...

Here is a photo of our poppy (in 2007) for my Great Great Uncle William Osmond Frost, it shows the names and how it looks.

succession planning I am not surprised at the idea of "job share", you would think that the Queen might want her heir to be relieved of the enormous learning curve having been unexpectedly dropped into her reign on her Father's sudden death. I would imagine QEII might have been sharing...

And will add that I had a caesarian birth, however my obstetrician and Paediatrician were both of the opinion if mother and baby are well (and feeding established) there is absolutely no reason to stop doing things.

It is all up to how mother and baby are, as a 37 year old mother I travelled from Australia to America with a 5 week old baby to spend a month with my brother, it worked, and also I think I learnt alot about how resilient and flexible we can be. And just think DoC won't have to travel cattle...

"I just had to hold on like this!!!!!":rofl:

I think Anne is doing the sounds of the plane as well as the actions!:flowers:

whilst not doubting Mary's ability to handle the twins (and Christian:smile:) Most commercial airlines have rules about the number of responsible adults travelling with infants. I am not sure how 'Hands On' their security detail would get but do think they must have some Children's helper with them.

DAria were you the purple sleeve in Pic 4 above - when i saw your personal photos I recognised the location and smile - you lucky thing getting such a warms smile.

The itinerary from the official website of the British Monarchy... Visit to Australia, 19 to 29 October 2011

I had just dropped my son's friend home after cricket when we saw the police motorbikes coming around the corner, we pulled over and jumped out and got to wave to Her Majesty, and wonderfully got a wave and smile back !! Wonderful. I told my son that I was his age when the Queen came to my...
