I like this photo. It seems to capture a strong resilience in her gaze.
And the nature in full bloom in the background ,the Isle of Mull has such magnificent scenery.I like this photo. It seems to capture a strong resilience in her gaze.
Thanks for a posting this, I've just read it and came along to see if had been posted. It shows just how much work goes on behind the scenes. William is a busy man!An authorised but interesting piece on the Duke of Cornwall and his approach to his Duchy.

Prince William: ‘I want to bring about real change’
In a world exclusive, the Prince says he’s leading the Duchy of Cornwall with a simple goal – improving people’s liveswww.telegraph.co.uk
Intro
When the Prince of Wales comes knocking, there’s no need to stand on ceremony. Having inherited the Duchy of Cornwall upon his father’s accession, William is leading it with a reforming zeal, a refreshing disregard for formality, and a determination to learn the truth about the lives of its tenants. This is what happened when I spent a day with the unorthodox landlord.
I was surprised to learn that he is visiting every 4-6 weeksAn authorised but interesting piece on the Duke of Cornwall and his approach to his Duchy.

I only managed to read some of this before it dropped behind the paywall but I did see that some of the time he spends on this does not appear on the Court Circular, worth remembering .I was surprised to learn that he is visiting every 4-6 weeks
Following in his father's footsteps. He too cared about the future and the farms. Might have some different methods but the same objective. I remember the documentary that was done on Charles as Duke of Cornwall and how he teared up when William talked about carrying on his father's work at the end.The article on the Duchy day was excellent - enlightening to the amount William does behind the scenes that goes unrecognised and I feel he receives so much criticism for. It is evident he has a passion for the countryside and wants to help modernise and make it future proof. Farming in the UK has had a terrible number of years. William it is clear wants to see how he can help and prepare them for the future.
I recall watching that programme, it was really interesting, in particular how emotional Charles was when he heard William’s words.Following in his father's footsteps.

Happy Father’s Day, Papa (before and after!) We love you! G, C & L![]()
Did William shared a photo with his father?
Exactly they don't have to share everything and it was up to the king to share his cards if he wanted to and not Prince William.Catherine didn't publicly share one with her father either. Obviously a decision made for whatever reason.
This world we now live in that everything has to be shared with everybody else.Exactly they don't have to share everything and it was up to the king to share his cards if he wanted to and not Prince William.
Indeed and perhaps the king did not want to share the personal card(s) he received.This world we now live in that everything has to be shared with everybody else.
Sorry for asking again but I want to Understand ist. You mean it‘s up to the King to Share a Photo with his son? I thought on fathers day the child has to do something for his father. Not the father for the son. That‘s the Reason why I wondered why William hasn‘t Shared a Photo of his father. Instead of this he Shared a Photo of himself in the Name of his children. It seemed a Little Bit Strange for me but maybe I Don‘t understand itExactly they don't have to share everything and it was up to the king to share his cards if he wanted to and not Prince William.
As I said earlier we live in a world now if something isn't posted on social media then it is perceived that there is a problem. I am sure William said / sent something in private, and maybe that is what they agreed to do.Sorry for asking again but I want to Understand ist.

Given the current family dynamics perhaps they thought it wise not to share any photos of the king with one or both of his sons, we had a wonderful Wales family photo and lets be content with that.Sorry for asking again but I want to Understand ist.
