Watching the news about the horrendous rubbish problem in Birmingham,this was followed by Kates film clip rambling about Windermere saying we need to connect with nature and couldn’t help thinking it was inappropriate.I bet cancer sufferers in Birmingham would love to do this instead of holding down a job worrying about col doing chores that I bet she never does and have stinking rubbish with rats in the streets. I have no problem with her video but thought the timing was so off. They sometimes need to read the room.

Does your Dad support another West Midlands team by any chance @PrettyFlyforaMaiTai ? Possibly one with a bird on their crest?😂

I do and find William's passion for the Vile sorry Villa a mixture of touching, amusing and rather great.

No actually. We’re in the north west. Not sure why he dislikes Villa so much, I’m pretty neutral about them myself. But I’m not so familiar with their history in the 60s and 70s, and my dad can hold a grudge 🤣

Lionesses, I think you mean. Obviously not a football fan yourself….

Oops ! Well spotted - that obviously. My axe hasn't been sharpned enough recently.

Whereas I take your point, doing jigsaws is a private, home based activity.
William supports football, has spoken to footballers about mental health and has shared conversations about this. I think it's broader in that aspect, really. Plus I think footie has more of a following.

He has also used his relationships with footballers to leverage his charitable activities - like Tyrone Mings supporting his Homewards charity, for example. And Raheem Sterling joining him for a football game with a. Jamaican youth project.

That's different and we with long memoreis remember when he missed the Lions in the World Cup Final in Australia. Card marked !

Make your mind up !
either you are cross he’s there or you are cross he wasn’t!

There have been other notable exceptions of his absence. For example he also missed the 2018 FA Cup for personal reasons. According to your reasoning, he must hate all football, particularly Chelsea and Man United. Card Marked, William (and I approve) 🤣

I’m enjoying this thread, first debating religious observations and private vs public worship, now discussing football and the cons of supporting Villa 🤣 (sorry to any Villa fans out there, I jest, but PapaMaiTai is not!)

Let's take that mirror and hold it up on the countless H&M threads - whilst remembering of course they are as far as we know paying their own bills as there wasn't going to be half in half out solution. The late Queen in her infinite wisdom put paid to that.

Why are you bringing up H&M up on a thread about Catherine (which has now evolved into a thread about William for some reason). Feels like you’re trying to deflect from something?

Not deflecting at all—just adding a bit of context to the wider royal family drama! It’s hard to talk about one branch of the Firm (if it is still that ) without the others popping up like a subplot in a long-running soap. Besides, threads evolve… a bit like toddlers' bedtime routines—never quite where you expect to end up!

I don’t think it’s need in this context to be honest. Perhaps point it out on those negative Harry and Meghan threads if it upsets you so much. Just seems odd to bring them up out of the blue.

It's all just random from an excess of chocolate I think and to fill in the big aching mess and furore that Harry has had in the press. The orders have gone out - make the RF as bad as they can possibly be to divert. Talk about Andrew, talk about William, say Charles is a bad Christian blah blah . Divert from Meghan's flop of a podcast.

And notwithstanding the obvious security risk, he’s regularly attending Aston Villa matches — seemingly sitting in the stands with little attempt at discretion. That’s not a one-off; it’s a pattern of behaviour that surely won’t go unnoticed by anyone with malign intent.

You think there's not security with him?

That's really funny. 😂🤣

So... a woman who lives thousands of miles away and has done a podcast has soooo much influence in the british press and all the media and social forums that someone (god knows who) has given orders to everyone to write iffy stories on members of the Royal Family (who incidentally are relevant to this country, whilst the podcaster is not!) rather than write about this person's podcast. 🐣🐰

Are you okay? You keep quoting random posts and then typing out full stops?

Type three full stops if you need help!

I wasn't referring to the media. I was referring to some posters on here. Keep up!

That's why I said social forums too! (But media have written about the non attendance at the Easter day service too)

I want to know who is giving orders, because I haven't had any. If there are, can I be paid please 🤣
