Of course he did. And it was no doubt hurtful. He basically blanked his brother.

Samcro · 17/03/2020 08:04

can I make a suggestion. mn is drowning in the C topic and its depressing. I know there is not much to say about H&M at the moment. so can we just chat about the RF, I don't know about others but I am just looking for something to take my mind off it all.

I must admit that t'other thread gave me my first smile of the day.
For reasons which would be inappropriate to explain here.

However:

Samcro · 18/03/2020 10:20

i just have a look and OMG how nasty are people.

OP posts:
LaMarschallin · 18/03/2020 10:22

Right.

Sorry if I caused you to look at something that made you feel worse.

I was just trying to be friendly and raise a smile here.

Samcro · 18/03/2020 10:28

no worries, not your fault.

I think it's a lovely statement H&M made. And believe it or not, for some people it will be a comfort. But... hey... we don't find everything they do is wrong on here...

Hope you're OK @Samcro Flowers

Roussette · 18/03/2020 18:48

I linked this elsewhere but want to repeat it... it's so lovely. It's to uplift all in Italy who have suffered so much

Samcro · 18/03/2020 19:24

Thanks i am , had a sleep,
Been struggling as worrying about dd, but feels so much better now, won't see her for ages though as the home she is in is now shut to visitors.
I feel like i need to talk about random stuff like why di the royal women never change their hair syles.

Samcro have you been on the style & beauty royals thread? Not saying you can’t talk about it here too, I just didn’t know if you’d seen it.

Samcro · 18/03/2020 19:30

I have it hidden,
I was just randomly thinking about princess annes hair today...as you do

OP posts:
Roussette · 18/03/2020 19:30

Yes... and why hasn't Princess Anne changed her hairstyle for ummm 50 years! Bless.

The trolls are at it again, disgusted that Sussex Royal insta has put out something about Corona virus. Just like they usually put out something for charities, they say links will follow on.

Someone from Kensington Royal must have thought, oh crap William was just caught on video joking about Corona virus saying it was exaggerated, quick let's put up something, I know have him address the nation on the National Emergency Trust and stick a few videos of his meetings with them. Normally, I think they would have just put out a statement and a link to the NET.
This speech was put up 3hrs after the SR statement.
But good ol William should not have even bothered, because he can say and do anything and he will get away with it. I imagine the papers and trolls would have slaughtered Harry if he had joked about Corona.

Funny how the trolls were also disgusted when H&M put up their instagram, even though K&W have an instagram account.

Speaking of instagram wars. This was doing the rounds a couple of weeks ago. This NY journalist basically spoke to some internet expects because she was smelling something fishy about the KR insta. It's rather long but quite enlightening.

You have to laugh at K&W plastic pedestals though.

Samcro · 19/03/2020 07:36

wow he joked about it. strange not seen that mentioned any where. just H&M getting ripped apart.

OP posts:
Roussette · 19/03/2020 07:57

I find it gobsmacking that in this world crisis there is still hate out there for them. I liked their message, yet those who hate will always hate I suppose. I would've thought there are more important things to think about than lay into a couple with a baby.

If they'd kept silent that would be wrong. They put out a statement, that is wrong. There is nothing they can do.

Mummy195 · 19/03/2020 07:59

Now that you mention it, I don't think the DM even bothered to cover it. If they did, they buried it somewhere.

It's that video on NBC world (the second one)

Samcro · 19/03/2020 08:00

i googled and found it. its not hard.
I really don't get why they are getting ripped apart.

OP posts:
Cerseirys · 19/03/2020 08:40

I wouldn't condemn William for making a joke as we've all been there but if it had been Harry it would've been splashed across every tabloid, much like the hoax phone call was. And I didn't think he said anything too bad in said call apart from calling the PM a decent man!

Roussette · 19/03/2020 08:42

I agree. I had no problem with William's 'joke', we've all been there with wrong thing said at wrong time. It's just the different treatment the two brothers receive that gets me.

Samcro · 19/03/2020 11:11

@Roussette so true, thats what gets me

OP posts:
Cerseirys · 19/03/2020 11:22

I had a look at what they posted on IG. Yes it's a bit naff but hardly the great crime some make it out to be. Interesting that they posted it a few hours before Kensington Palace posted the clip of William, yet they're accused of trying to steal his thunder.

LaMarschallin · 19/03/2020 15:34

Mummy195

The trolls are at it again

That sounds bad.
What trolls are these then?
Only asking because I tend to just read posts on MN and if there were trolls here you'd report them, wouldn't you? And not hunt them.

Anyway, in the spirit of peace and love, I'll be here for the football game on Christmas Day.

Albeit I'm rubbish at football but am happy to take on all comers at archery.
Or Trivial Pursuit.

Samcro · 19/03/2020 17:06

I don't think they mean trolls as in the mn meaning, in wider circles it means anyone who is saying something nasty.
In mags like heat you will have some d celeb saying they have been attacked online by trolls.

Harry made a simple home video regarding postponing Invictus Games. No music, special effects etc. Just a video he seems to have made himself, which I found genuine. I expect H&M will be sending out supportive messages to their charities soon.
