Play nicely and don’t say anything that will get your post (or the thread) deleted. I’ll start. Archie is cute and it would be lovely to see him more often.

The Highgrove book doesn’t say what happens to the plastic handles. The plastic (and some metal handles are replaced by wooden handles. It all looks a bit 1753, doesn’t it?

It’s quite sad that Charles is leaving Highgrove. He has put his heart and soul into it. Will he still keep the house and gardens though?

Here’s a bit from the intro which Charles wrote

“It may sound strange to some but I thank the Good Lord that I have been spared so far to see the results of the past twenty years and to sit in the shade of some of the trees that I have planted. Perhaps what has given me almost the greatest pleasure of all is to discover the effect the garden can have in all sorts of people who come to visit it. For me, the joy is to share what I have created with others and to witness their reaction to each part of it.”

Charles maintains Highgrove via the monetisation (ahem) of the garden tours, the gift shop and the events.

I feel sorry for the RF whobare left to pick up the pieces. Charles clearly has a 5 year plan to step up, which means the funerals are already being prepared and practiced. I think the next 5-10 years will see sweeping changes to the monarchy and we should all appreciate everyone who is still around and who is a familiar presence to us. Gosh, I feel so maudlin and sad.

Flowers It's odd to think about how the RF will change. I imagine Charles will toddle on much as his DM has done. Nothing controversial. Despite his own passions (gardening, architecture) he won't want to be the monarch who let everything fall apart on his watch. I wonder if he's glad the H&M split happened now so he could just be a father to H and leave his DM with the bulk of the negotiations and the monarchy matters.

I think the other thread was deleted because there was a lot of discussion (I recall?) about a potential other marriage that crops up every so often and seems to be based on invention.

MN should have stated that was the case if so.

@ SunbathingDragon looks like I am the reason for the deletion as I raised the subject . Apologies however it was because Angela Levin mentioned it on Twitter and she tends to have her finger on the pulse.

We all know MNHQ likes to pull these threads for no reason at all so I don’t take the blame. Maybe now FF has been released to back up most of the reasons for pulling previous threads, they are getting desperate. Grin

The funerals are already organised. There was a fascinating article in the Guardian about the Queen’s funeral plans.

It’s all code named London Bridge and when there’s a message from the Palace to Whitehall that London Bridge is down it means the Queen will have died. Will see if I can find it.

That was easier than I expected!

As this thread is sub-titled 'The One That Has No Deletions', I'm waiting with bated breath to see how that pans out.

Giveagirlalink · 18/08/2020 17:03

Can someone link me to the other thread where people aren't getting deleted?

Welcometothelifeboatparty · 18/08/2020 17:49

@Giveagirlalink the new house thread has many post deletions. There was another thread earlier today that has been deleted in its entirety

Viviennemary · 18/08/2020 17:52

There seems to be four threads now. The finding freedom thread, the one about the new house, the AIBU thread complaining about H&M bring all over the news, and this one.

Bumlooksbig · 18/08/2020 21:39

No 3. The news thread is gone. The previous news thread is still there but full up.

ZaraCarmichaelshighheels · 18/08/2020 21:52

Is it just these threads that are controlled? it all seems a bit sinister.

StartupRepair · 18/08/2020 22:00

It is both controlling and random. Let's see how this one goes.

WinnieTheW0rm · 18/08/2020 22:32

Maybe it's (organic, Duchy) chicken entrails?

Viviennemary · 18/08/2020 22:49

I just read an article in the DM (where else) they are talking to all the top Hollywood people about a wonderful idea they have. Totally hush hush and top secret of course. They will be joint producers of this venture. We wait with baited breath. Maybe an advert for loo cleaner as they've got 16 bathrooms to deal with.

KatherineParr4 · 18/08/2020 23:03

The wonderful idea they have is for them to play themselves in a film called Finding Freedom which will make lots and lots of money.

ZaraCarmichaelshighheels · 18/08/2020 23:27

Apparently they are going to be the world’s highest paid speakers on the corporate market, they are with the same agency as the Clintons and the Obamas, it will be interesting to see how this pans out,I just don’t get how they be classed on the same level as the Clintons and the Obamas, How can they even compare, it baffles me.

KatherineParr4 · 18/08/2020 23:32

More importantly, what the he’ll are they going to talk about?

bananabanona · 18/08/2020 23:36

Thanks for the explanation of the photo incident whoever helped on that one! I saw it before it was deleted - but realise it's not solid fact.

Interesting article about Angela Kelly ("that woman") in the DM. Anyone know much about her from before?

OverUnderSidewaysDown · 18/08/2020 23:38

The next few months are going to be very interesting. There have been so many varying reports about what their interests are, what causes they will be championing and so on. I can't wait to see what they actually settle on doing.
