I wonder if the advent calendars are coming from Compartés, like the previous chocolate did? They already do their own calendars - expensive but magical

Compartés calendars

Is the fleeting chocolate man part of Compartes?

Dai Davis has some fairly trenchant comments in the Sun (sorry I can't archive it)

Paparazzi is not a security incident.

If you look at the track record such as the New York car incident they are nothing of real consequence.

Dai also questioned why a simple incident involving foreign photographers had been publicised.

I imagine it is too late and this is Harry still stamping his feet and refusing to accept reality. Bet the former protection officer is in H’s pay; why else would he care enough about this to go on bloody Newsnight?!

Why is it even being mentioned on Newsnight for fucks sake, honestly I’m so sick of this shit it’s beyond ridiculous and infuriating, just fuck off out of this country you despicable pair and don’t come back.

That's funny. I'm not sure the staff in my local have ever addressed me by my name, why would they even know it? generally it's just 'and what can I get you? pint of London Pride and a bag of ready salted coming up, tap here please.'

Yeah exactly this, at one of our locals it's just "the usual?" from Mick at the bar & a slight nod & a smile

Lightbulb!

Could this be another move for Prince Hazard?

I'm thinking, more likely for them to find monarchal agnosticism and completely awash with red headed children to camouflage the precious ones in with (no flaming here, a mother of a red head, Irish parentage, the tone here is light hearted)

They could merch their new flounce 3.0 to America. And how cute could the scented candles be. ☘️

I'd have to turn all Peggy Mitchell & be like "Get out of my Pub!" eh I mean country 😂

The stuff in the Daylesford pub will presumably be used to seeing recognisable faces and will be told to treat them exactly the same as everyone else.
Im going to guess this is a bit like when the BA staff told her how wonderful she was.
Honestly, I’m surprised we haven’t been told how the staff were dancing with joy……🤷🏼‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

That’s a bit extreme!
More like the end received by George, Duke of Clarence , younger brother of Edward IV .
If this were medieval times Harold would have been dispatched long before now, his children removed and allocated to different high born houses and his wife would have been confined to a strict nunnery somewhere quiet never to be heard of again.
I think I would prefer that to years of the tantrums of the Sussex pair for the next few years…..

Whaaaaat à la Oprah. You could buy an OK beauty calendar and some proper chocolate for that, and still have change for some wine.

You can get a Fortnum’s Tea and Biscuit Advert Calendar for £100.

Looks rather yummy actually.

KilkennyCats · 30/09/2026 19:20

Of course they don’t ask. And if they did, you could literally fill in whatever you liked.
Who in their right mind would put International Paparazzi? 😆

& now I kind of want to say that should the need arise 😂

They’re chocolates apparently, Harry’s face on the baby Jesus

Thank you all - I'm awake cos not feeling great and I have been gloriously entertained by your visions of the advent calendar 👏👏👏

Maybe Harry and Meghan can push though a law

Markles law - car rental companies must ask people’s occupation

Starryfifty · 30/09/2026 22:58

On what grounds ?? And is it not too late? RAVEC would surely have made their decision by now anyway ?

I assumed RAVEC had made their decision, and Harry had been informed. Hence all this.

Forget the flavours, it’s the corn syrup and the rest of the ingredients! Highgrove doesn’t need to worry about the competition.

HoldMyWine · 01/10/2026 06:57

Why are all the news agencies just accepting what HaM are putting out and not questioning it? One of us needs to be on the panel and give an alternative viewpoint. I think RAVEC have made their decision, NO. And agree with PP, this incident has been set up or exaggerated in response. How long have they been back in the UK? And how much bloody drama? I wish the press would stop giving them oxygen, it’s a bloody circus. I am sick of them.

I feel it likely that they sent one of their enterage up to the bar to insist that they got table service from from a member of staff assigned specifically just to them and that M should be addressed as Your Highness or something and the busy pub staff said that can't be done and it's not going to happen!

JHITRM77 · 01/10/2026 07:19

Catherine played a blinder by going to West Sussex yesterday. Now Sussex is trending on X but not one article pops up about H&M 😆🤣 it's all Princess Catherine looking fab

I know. It’s really annoying that just obviously made up stories get reported as fact.

MrsLeonFarrell · 01/10/2026 07:26

I think very poorly of any security person who advances an opinion about a situation they know nothing about. It's like a doctor diagnosing a patient they haven't seen.

Clearly we are going to be stuck with this nonsense for some time. If RAVEC refuse to bend they may go home otherwise Harry will keep throwing a tantrum.

They need to be removed from the website and the press need to ignore all the non stories.

Agreed...

I'm pretty sceptical about most things but given the amount of bandwidth that somehow got occupied simply by a story of a van and men with backpacks I have to admit even I am now prepared to believe these idiots and/or their proxies are not beyond staging an incident.....
