Is Harry silent or silenced?
what else can possibly happen?

Just catching up on the last thread. This was in the People article about Harry. Are they now trolling him? The favourite mouthpiece? Has it had enough?

“Just two days after his latest New York sighting, Harry was back in London on Nov. 4, delivering a keynote speech on responsible travel at the Wanderlust Reader Travel Awards, held in the historic Painted Hall at the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich.”

It was the “just two days” that made me snigger.

'Just two days after his latest sighting' made me snigger as well, as if H is some rare species eg 'the greater spotted H'.

This photo is very odd. My toddlers had these giant footballs. Archie is too old for this. Photo is very obviously staged

A giant inflatable football that size would send most toddlers flying - it is taller than they would be. You can’t play football with it and it may be staged but an older child could still
play with it.

AlexandraCarrington · Today 12:59

Various Xers reporting that H is SAD because of seeing W&G at the football match earlier in the week (I think with a hefty dose of jealousy). He wants to do that with Archie apparently

Why can't H go to a football match with Archie? Local non-League or lower division match, hat and scarf, probably no-one would notice them.

I really hope HAM make education a priority for their kids.

Harry doesn't value education. He made that clear in Spare. M had a good education, but she doesn't seem to have made much use of it.

I didn't know Harry was in NYC! Our elections were on Nov. 3, so that was the main focus. Someone must have told his bodyguards not to shove people around on the sidewalk 😁

Our veterans need support from from people in the US. I don't see why a UK prince who apparently spent most of his time in the US missing home feels qualified to help US vets.

The giant football reminds me of when MM was going on about the giant inflatable pizza slice her children liked in the pool. Their toys seem very cheap which is quite sad when you consider what their mother spends on clothes. I always think Lilibet's clothes look quite scanty, cheap and scruffy too. I'm not saying they should be spoilt like little Fauntleroy's but I don't think MM derives the same pleasure spending on them, as she does on herself.

We didn't hear much about him promoting US veteran charities while he was living in the US.

I always wondered why, as it had seemed to me to be an obvious interest, alongside Invictus.

A sweet nod to John Betjeman? Of whom Meghan has probably never heard, but does seem apposite:

How To Get On In Society

Phone for the fish knives, Norman
As cook is a little unnerved;
You kiddies have crumpled the serviettes
And I must have things daintily served.

Are the requisites all in the toilet?
The frills round the cutlets can wait
Till the girl has replenished the cruets
And switched on the logs in the grate.

It's ever so close in the lounge dear,
But the vestibule's comfy for tea
And Howard is riding on horseback
So do come and take some with me

Now here is a fork for your pastries
And do use the couch for your feet;
I know that I wanted to ask you-
Is trifle sufficient for sweet?

Milk and then just as it comes dear?
I'm afraid the preserve's full of stones;
Beg pardon, I'm soiling the doileys
With afternoon tea-cakes and scones.

Neither has her freakish attention to detail alerted her to the grave error with the teaspoon, which in the shot is at 90 degrees to the cup handle. It should be above the cup, parallel to the handle ie at 180 degrees. You just can't get the staff.

Meghan must hate Emma because she doesn't fit in with the narrative of Britain being so racist that a woman with black heritage cannot succeed or thrive.

The odd think about Meghan was that she never publicised her black heritage until she was dating H. I read that it was a surprise to her Suits castmates.

Back in 2015 she did an (expenses paid/freebie holiday) to Malta for Elle magazine where she proclaimed her Maltese heritage and posed in traditional dress like a Scottish Widows advert.

Then after the wedding she was suddenly 43% Nigerian.

It had never crossed my mind that M was black. The furore over the 'straight outta Compton' comment was what informed me that she was. When I then said to my DD that identifying as black was very convenient and that she was hardly black at all, my DD said it was her right to identify as black. This was during the period that my DD's Instgram profile included her pronouns. Those have gone now she is 23.

It makes me sad and worried for Lilibet. Both children look awkward in most photos.
