    Death In The Family

    This is truly awful. I lost my mum when I was 9. In someways though you have it worse because you know what is happening as a child the family did try to shield me. I am so sorry.

    The Poppy Thread.

    In terms of capturing the correct tone of dignity and remembrance for the centenary of the WW1 seems to have passed by the authorities in Brussels responsible for the 'Mannequin pis'. I had heard that the 'attraction' was underwhelming but I was not prepared for unbelievably tacky.

    Ideas and Possibilities for 2019

    I would suggest that about 60% of those names will be under consideration but I suspect when all is taken into account no more than 4 end up on the final list. The committee have a massive list to choose from.

    Prince Philip Duke Of Edinburgh

    Walked without a stick. However the Duke of Kent looked really rough and the Duchess of Kent did not turn up. Are we looking at the right Royals?
