Kate has been admitted, early stages.

Why am I excited, I don't even particularly like the totals!

Why not be excited? The media hoopla is fun and babies are always something to celebrate.

MrsKeithRichards · 22/07/2013 07:36

Totals?

Royals!

Well obviously the golden child will usher in an era of peace and prosperity for all her grateful and devoted subjects, like a magic baby. That'll be amazing.

Or else she'll be a wasteful, horsey layabout who sponges off you all but treats you with contempt while she does it like every the rest of her family.

Either way, exciting!

I'm excited too! Such a pity we won't be allowed a snuggle/breath in royal baby smell. They should bring back that thing where you could queue up to have a royal touch you to cure you of scrofula.

Very excited, its my dds bday today too.had a feeling it might happen today.

I'm no royalist -to be honest, I'm a republican but I don't think you are being unreasonable.

It is history in the making after all.

It gives us pause to consider the passage of time: think about it, when this baby comes to the throne, we'll all be most likely dead.

It is a momentous occasion.
