To think Prince George should not be wearing a jacket and tie?

[lurchermummy]

He's at Wimbledon, it's very hot - can't help thinking he should be in a nice cool polo shirt. I know it's none of my beeswax really I was just pondering.

You keep saying that even though I have shared articles saying the opposite.
There is one monarch.

If you’re using monarch as a job title with one job description - as you are - then it’s perfectly possible for two people to job share. The title and associated duties haven’t changed. But then, of course you know this and are simply arguing illogically for the sake of it.

Name a Monarch job share?
Charles is not job sharing, he is not a monarch.
The monarch's job description has been rewritten to pass some of a monarch's duties to other working royals.

Was William and Mary a job share?

You are right! They held the throne as joint Monarchs.

Small price to pay for immense wealth and privilege.

proof he was overdressed.

DH and I have taken our DS to several similar events over the years (hospitality at rowing regattas, horse racing, polo, cricket, rugby etc) and he has always abided to the dress code, as have any other children/teens present. It is not a hardship - he loves going and is happy to put on a suitable jacket and tie. His school also has several dinners a term for different groups of pupils (debate teams, sports teams, music, drama etc) and again he has to dress smartly in a jacket and tie or suit. He wants to go so accepts the dress rules and has done since he was 11.

I'm not sure that's proof. He could easily be saying " phew, he hit that in!'

He said he was too hot.

Everyone was too hot.

Except for Kate who looked cool as a cucumber and Djokivic who looked like he hardly broke a sweat. I on the other hand.....🙄

No, he's not the future 'King of England'. He is the future King of the United Kingdom

I see he mentioned he was too hot.

I do wonder if there was any discussion between parents about what he should be wearing. On a hot day.

Monarch's job description.

Dress up.
Get treated like royalty
Be rich
Say how nice and what do you do whilst pretending to care.
Open the red box pretend to read all of the guff and sign it
Pay off your nonce's son legal bills

If you don't like it then off you fuck.

I’m sure the royal box has secret fans or AC secreted near their ankles.

I've sat in the Chairman's seat at Leicester City on a ground tour it has both heating and cooling built-in and feels like a seat in a Rolls-Royce.

Accurate and succinct

I'd add scouring proposed legislation that might adversely effect own interests then bleating about it until it gets changed

And back to original topic

George looked like a throwback to the fifties.

He might well have been enthusiastic about the idea of attending but I'm not sure the over-heated hours long reality will have been as exciting as he imagined.

I wouldn't be surprised to find he'd have preferred to be sitting in the royal paddling pool splashing his sibs and scarfing Ice Pops.

I'm sure George quite likes his privileged cossetted life he could always do a Harry when he grows up if he's had enough. His parents aren't worried about what to eat or how to pay the bills. How many articles can the DM get out of this (answer almost infinite) how many pages can MN - probably around 30. Anyway, daddy knows what it's like to be a Big Issue seller and mummy won't eat.

DM comments - I love trolling that section for the scores on the doors.

George needs to pull his socks up and get with the programme, his petulant behaviour in recent months has been shocking and nothing but an embarrassment to my country

The whole of Centre Court has it.

it's just that nobody is listening to that when they've got a Really Important Criticism to make.

Well, yes, they do - they spent a shitload of money on building it.

How does the air con work in a non enclose space?
