Thank you for posting this. I read the article, and I trully enjoy stories/history of the Royals.
Of course I remember my late Irish father being ‘mad’ at me for wakening early (and missing school) to watch the Wedding of Diana and whathisface. Affecting his brogue, ‘you’ve gone daft girl...’
I think QEII will tell `whatshisface` to take Camilla and hightail it to Bermuda where Uncle Edward lived out his life... and let William take the big job when it opens up.
Re your Irish father’s view of things: Some years ago I went into an eatery in Boston for breakfast and ordered a toasted English muffin. The waitress called to the cook, “Burn the British!”
And my Scottish Father making the sly remark on the same event....”Well, those English do like keepin’ things in the family...”...the trailing off unsaid words were always where he put the meaning.
