Some papers have decided we need to know what the baby could look like. So they've been highly scientific and done pictures of what their baby will look like. Basically, it will look like a baby.

I thought Orange's comments about Kate Middleton's baby were just a language thing. Orange, can you please link to the article you are talking about discussing Kate MIddletons babies? Confused

No way would I swap places. I have two beautiful, adorable children, a husband who loves me and who I love,and who has a great career, a family that is BRILLIANT, a new house in the country that I am building, principles and faith that I live my life by, and also...my PRIVACY! And you can't put a price on that!

I am about the same age as her OrangePanda and my answer is hell no


Also are you sure you're on the right thread? You wrote "she just had a gorgious baby", which is not true...

Actually quite a bit like being a panda, everyone staring at you and willing you to breed already.

Would I swap places with her orange?
Hell no, it would be like being a zoo animal.

A person who wears themselves out to get rich is a bit silly behaviour imo.
Not saying that anyone on here is doing that.

I should imagine that Kates mum is gloriously happy at how things have turned out.
I think, on a documentary about the Middletons, if I remember correctly, Kates gran wanted her offspring to "marry well" and go "higher" in society.

Who here would swap places with Kate if you could be the same age as her now? I think everyone here would. She's got pretty looks, really nice clothes, everyone loves her, buys expensive things, she just had a gorgious baby - everything! She has one bad thing in life that is her husband is a baldy. Yuck!

No, people with expensive fancy educations almost never go on to be totally supported by their family without any kind of proper job or understanding of money other than its use for snorting and purchasing drugs and booze.

Never.

doctrine how much do reckon that would be? I'm considering my options for when the kids start school

My daughter';s friend from school for example is a pilot. Kate could have been. Another is a medic. This is what girls from thes tkinds of schools and univerisites become after all that expensive education, not a florified clotheshorse or they set up a business as her mother has done so well. Her mother did not go through all that effort to ensrue her daughter was simply a consort - that is no achievement at all - to marry well. It is a Jane Austen novel type achievement, not something women in 2012 want to achieve.

At risk of letting you derail another thread with your crazy... what constitutes a "proper job" in your eyes?

Xenia I think it was difficult for her to work as she was followed by the press a lot. She was a buyer for Jigsaw for a while and then joined the family company, I think.

She never had a proper job. She messed around doing very little after her degree. Plenty of men from Eton marry bright women with great careers. At 30 she could be well into a career by now. Her mother and her mother in law are much better examples to women.

A "top surgeon" would be a bit older than Wills and might not find that she had anything in common with him.

Yep so do I LineRunner. It is easier online because I get to think before I write (most of the time!!). And I hate it but it still slips out. Mind you I have a bit of an issue with swearing full stop Hmm - as in I do too much of it!
