Who in their right minds gives a flying fuck? Up against the wall with the lot of them, and bags I shout "fire!".

Redundant?

How about 'Sinecure' - very apt I'd say.

Yeah, cos' the idea of killing a child is funny.

Paris, as in Parisite. (It is really a boy's name, whatever Ms Hilton's dim-witted parents thought.)

Not least because that really did happen. Only it was in a forest IIRC.

Richard....Richard the Third.

Apparently both the Duke and Duchess were present at the birth.

.....well it was pretty much guaranteed that the Duchess would have been there!

Don't care.
Or Fred.
-
I like Frederick actually but favour James or John for this new little boy. They won't take any notice of my opinion however.

No, Fred.
-
Well why not? I had a Great Uncle Fred who was very nice indeed. Also like Freddie. However I am not fond of abbreviated given names, fine to abbreviate when the child is named - that's friendly - but prefer the birth certificate to have the full whack. Just my opinion.

Has to be Fred.

You are more modern than me Maeght but.....you may get your wish! I also thought of Alfie.

I hope they were also both present at the conception.

I'm not being serious Robbie - I don't care to be honest. Just thought Prince Fred would be funny!
-
I know you're not been serious Maeght ;D, didn't think you were. Makes no difference to us anyway but I'll be interested to hear what he is to be called.
I hope they were also both present at the conception.
They were Steve & drunk at the time. So they might call their new son Jack Daniel.

Ah, the days when a labour MP in my area was true to his principles.....
Maybe that's why we don't have any Labour MPs or MSPs in this are anymore.

Mmm...

Doesn't sound right coming from someone who had two perfectly healthy children, boy & girl, seemed well set up with family life & then had a third child. Nothing against anyone having three or even four children but maybe they're not the right person to be pontificating about this issue. I'll advised I would say, unless I've misunderstood him.
Inserted bit later:- There's something wrong about a person like Prince William - not talking about royal necessarily but someone reasonably well off - preaching to those who are so severely underprivileged, who often cannot access water never mind birth control. Many of those in third world countries don't want to keep on breeding and often lose children in infancy. We on the other hand, even those not earning much, would manage if they had an unplanned child - often known as 'a happy accident'. William needs to stand back and take stock - as do many others who preach the same. He's nice from what we can see & appears to genuinely care but saying what he said shows he has little idea.
Let's stand back and wait for the flack.

No flak from me.
Nice he does appear to be, but suffering from a lack of awareness that seems to be the lot of many of the over-privileged.

Louis Arthur Charles. WOW I was right, I guessed the baby might be called Louis, after Mountbatten.
-
Excellent name. All three have good names.
-
Late loves 1D.
-
What does that mean please ??? ?
-
One Direction.
-

Wrong. He has been named after his father.
-
One Direction.

You're all wrong....
He's been named after my brother who's a big fan of Kate.... ;) :D
-

The penny has dropped, Louis Tomlinson! Presume you mean Kate loves One Direction. At last I geddit.
Seems this little lad is named after many people.

Is it true that Harry will have to have the third hair protruding from his right eyebrow, coming from his left side, specially trimmed before the so called 'Big Day'?
Regards ippy
-
Definitely ippy. Tho' not noticed it on him - do notice wild eyebrows on other men on TV & always want to take the scissors to them (for the eyebrows that is).

It's just that the whole royal thing is so deeply interesting, I've started loosing sleep over it already Rob, it put me in mind of the extreme excitement of listening to golf on the radio, how I'll get through all of it, well I don't know how? For a man of my age, I just hope my heart can cope?
I daren't start to go through my collection of used teabags, that'd just about see me off.

I used to go through my scarf box & rearrange them in terms of colour, quality & size if I couldn't sleep, years ago. Quite rare for me not to sleep, more difficult to wake up but it did happen that I had the odd sleepless night. Now I don't know where my scarf box is, I have a couple of scarves lying around but no nice silk ones. One day I'll find it. Such is life.
We move on, the naming of the royal baby is now history & nothing left for me to say except I wish them all well. Today's news is certainly tomorrow's crisp packet, or something like that.
