Royal Visit on 6/2/12
 
Surprised that there was nothing in the Observer regarding the Duke of Wessex (Prince Edward) being in Accy on Monday. He's doing the official opening of Lancashire House by the Globe Centre. He arrives about 2.45 don't know if he's visiting anything else locally

Strange, he usually twitters me when he's in the area.

I'd better iron my favourite dish cloth just in case.

What noble purpose does it serve in our community?

He never did get quite the respect he deserved, for bringing us It's a Royal Knockout.

Hyndburn now has the chance to make amends for the nation's ingratitude.

Must've been Hair & make up as in all the good fairy tales you can turn a frog into a Prince but you can't turn a Prince into a Marine, well known fact that. ;)

It was such a shame at his wedding.

All his brothers getting married in their military uniforms, and him taking Sophie up the aisle, dressed as Christine, from Phantom of the Opera.

He's the Earl of Wessex, not the Duke.

No, we already have enough unemployed people up here.

He should be looking for work, and get a job.
