Talkative Finn 47 Posted September 10, 2022 Surely she couldn't reincarnate to a fetus already conceived months ago when she was still living. As far as I've been told, the babies don't receive their souls only at birth. In case of Tibetan Lamas, it could take even few years before they get reborn. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One of my favourites is when she won the sweepstake at the Derby. She was so gleeful. That satisfied smirk at the end! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Youth in Asia 1,088 Posted September 10, 2022 Cancelling the premier league and all football at every level around the country this weekend is a massive error of judgement imho.

ladyfiona 2,671 Posted September 10, 2022 As an NHS worker in outpatients i'm groaning at the prospect of appointments getting rescheduled by a booking team that doesn't like to notify the patients. I'm serious. Daily we get people turn up who havn't had a letter or phone call to say their appointment got cancelled. Still I get Monday off and Tuesday then deal with what will be an interesting busy day I assume. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it's because football fans can't be trusted to act with any sort of decorum whatsoever at a time of national mourning, unlike fans of cricket, rugby and horse racing. And I say that as a season ticket holder. The midweek fixtures are taking place. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Archie could have used the subsidiary title of the Earl of Dumbarton as the son of a Duke from birth, but that wasn’t good enough for the Sussexes. Presumably now their grandfather is king they could be styled as Prince and Princess but that wouldn’t suit the parents’ narrative. If they were changed automatically that would be a problem too I’d image… 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But this is on the official Royal site, and it has been updated to show William as Prince of Wales and the children as Wales instead of Cambridge. As Windsor says, they spurned the subsidiary Sussex title, so perhaps conclusions have been drawn from that! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, I meant they had updated for the Prince of Wales, just not Archie, despite Chris Mason mentioning both in the same roundup on changing roles. It must have formed part of the discussions when he was up at Balmoral. Guess we'll see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not as easy as that. There's a full round of EFL fixtures planned for midweek, another round of Champions League matches too, and it doesn't help fans who aren't able to attend a rearranged game (presuming you meant play them Sunday?) The Test Match couldn't be extended to Tuesday as they tried to do as South Africa need to get back home on Tuesday for a couple of days before their next series starts. With 16 wickets falling today, however, I don't think that will be a problem anyway, and the Day 3-5 tickets are still valid, with Day 2 tickets being reimbursed. The major horse racing disruption concerned the St Leger, which should have been run today. It has simply been moved to Sundays race schedule at the same meeting.
