Continuing the baton on from @Atlusvue

I never commented on AMW?
I would think most people on here would think he's worse! 😅
(As a character)

They are So Very Important though.
It's quite extraordinary. Also very entertaining.

You’ve just reminded me I actually know someone called Plum 😬

IMO (and I'm sure William won't heed my advice 😀) he should remove titles from any non working royal. Saves any future headaches. Looks like he's going for a more informal structure anyway

@NormalAuntFanny May I just say Oh FFS - Oh and not at you . This pair are in their forties. It's their 8th wedding anniversary - I think normally the RF do a Happy Birthday / Anniversary for the main numbers - so 10 maybe 15 20 , 25 etc. And for birthdays apart from the POW's children , 18 , 21 etc ( I may be wrong here ) My mother and father had a 60th wedding anniversary card from HLMTQ - lovely for them.

How in the name of Betsy are they living their best life as two middle aged people ( ok early middle aged people ) with a good deal of money and all the freedom they wanted and they are whinging because Daddy hasn't put out a global message . Get real you two - you chose this. There are many who would quite like to see you denuded of titles but you still have them. & you're making the most of them .

May I contribute a slight "grrr " and a "do buck up" to those two 😂 And exit one stout party ......

It's a nickname for Victoria, isn't it?
Surely no one is actually christened Plum..?!

I don’t think KC3 publicly acknowledged the Wales’s anniversary did he? So why would he do anything for this pair who are a) much less significant, b) estranged and c) such a pain in the royal butt. ‘Shocked and depressed’, I ask you 🤦‍♀️

Did Harry do anything for Charles and Camilla’s anniversary? Nope. They are just such awful people, trying to shape this narrative of being victims of Charles and William, after everything they’ve done. Inventing a load of shite to make the family look bad, no doubt in the hope of forcing them to capitulate and give Harry everything he wants. This man is in his 40s ffs. He behaves like a particularly obnoxious teenager.

I'm amused that the Australia trip is remembered as a huge success. It really wasn't.

Let’s not count our chickens Cathy! , it’s taken years to find out about Andrew despite the copious rumours! , let’s hope that despite the copious rumours of Harry’s behaviour they don’t take years to come to the surface! , we may discover that the spares are not so different after all!.

Without wishing to sound peevish! , until they have reached plus 10 years or 28 in my case ! , I see their marriage as new or a “starter” marriage! Come back when they have some longevity if they want fanfare!!

Jeff 😂 - you don't sound peevish . I speak as one who is into the 30s of wedding anniversaries. I got some very nice window boxes for my 25th . I can't even remember 7 , 8 , 9 or even 10. I'm sure we had a nice time , but I didn't expect a fanfare, as you say. Anyway 💐for 28th Jeff.

No it’s not a nickname in her case! Her siblings have daft, er, I mean unusual names too.

I didn't think a fuss was made about wedding anniversaries until, at least, the 10th.
And I thought the couple celebrated them, not the wider family, apart from the significant ones. In my parents' and in-laws' cases that was their 25th. My DM and DPiL sent a card for DH and my 1st but that was all and I did the same for my DC.
8 is such a random number for a society based on decimal! Goodness knows what they're expecting for their 10th (God willing they make it there - don't want to tempt fate).

It's not about the wedding anniversary.
It's about getting the clicks.
I think that being in the headlines is addictive. For some people 🙁

Those girls would have been born long before Princess Lilibet Diana.
Up until that point, it was exceptionally rare, according to the ONS.

Prior to 2021, according to the ONS, there were consistently fewer than 3 girls in the UK registered as Lilibet, per year

So in your school you got if not the entirety of the Lilibet cohort for that year, then pretty close.
Perhaps those parents were coincidentally paying tribute to her late Majesty.

Or is their name Elizabeth and they’ve shortened it to Lilibet?

If not then it’s statistically impossible and I call BS 🤣

That's the only explanation.

Been and gone in April @BasiliskStare! And as usual we both forgot! 🤣 but thankyou for the flowers 🌹

A big year for America's princess ...

Does America know it has its own princess? , I mean they are a republican country that fought a war with us to rid themselves of such titles ! 🤷‍♀️
