King Charles appeared in "good spirits" as he attended his first public engagement since side effects from his cancer treatment stopped him carrying out a visit last Friday.

The King hosted an investiture ceremony at Windsor Castle on Tuesday morning, recognising key figures and community leaders.

Among those granted honours were reigning world heptathlon champion Katarina Johnson-Thompson, who became an MBE, and TV gardener Alan Titchmarsh, who was appointed CBE.

The King, who will be 77 this year, was pictured smiling as he greeted guests.

I don't think the photographer flattered him at all

I almost feel sorry for him.

There’s not much to work with. I was stationed in English 1973-75. We referred to him as princess Charles and his sister as Prince Anne since she had bigger balls.

I used to watch Alan Titchmarsh’s show “Ground Force”. Enjoyed it very much.

I like ‘Escape to the Country’.

I am certain there are rooms in London where behind closed doors a consortium of bankers, oil rich muslims, and billionaire ‘philanthropists’ tell the big eared moron to sit down and shut up while business is being conducted.
