Prince Charles 'nodded off' during PM's speech - report
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, MS Sans Serif]Did Prince Charles fall asleep during Prime Minister Helen Clark's speech at the dedication of the New Zealand memorial in London at the weekend?[/FONT]
"I was surprised when I saw the prince, he looked asleep during New Zealand premier Helen Clark's speech," press photographer Simon Jones was quoted by the News of the World as saying.

Lets take a guess, does Simon Jones work for tnow by any chance?:whistling
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, MS Sans Serif]According to observers the prince's eyes closed and his head slumped onto his chest before he roused himself to look at his programme. [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, MS Sans Serif]However, a spokeswoman for Clarence House denied Prince Charles fell asleep although one source admitted he might have had "a quiet moment of contemplation", the Sunday Times reported.[/FONT]
Nameless observers, nameless royal source, in this day and age, you'd think they could do better than that!
I thought dedication and remembrance ceremonies were supposed to include quiet contemplation, someone had better tell Charles to jump up and down clapping at the next one he attends!
