  5. Tourist attraction... Yes. They bring in millions of pounds of tourism helping keep the UK afloat. But more importantly, they're a major part of English/British history. The official reported annual cost to the British public of keeping the Royal Family was £41.5 million for the 2008-09 financial year.However, this figure is disputed since it does not include the cost of security provided by the police and the Army, the lost revenues of the Duchies of Cornwall and Lancaster and other expenses. Total waste of money and a completely outdated tradition Moan moan moan moan... What about the money they bring in? The Royal family generate close to £500 million every year for British tourism with The Tower of London, Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace the most popular Royal destinations. But that just takes into account what people can track. Like visiting these places. Tourists still visit the UK but don't necessarily visit the palaces. in 2009 Uk tourism was worth £115bn per year. 9billion was just from London. Anyways this thread wasn't about the royal family and their worth to society but the about the birth of a baby. A joyeous occasion, and a child who will have a huge impact on this country whether you like it or not.
  6. He has actually left the army now (Mum breathes a sigh of relief) and is working on the railway Mr brother also served in the same regiment but was KIA in the Falklands
  7. W Well one is still older than the other, if only by a few mins. This baby would be third in line. After Charles and William.

  9. If its a girl, that would be so fitting. Which royals did you meet? Only met the Queen and saw Wills. Our schools played Rugby against each other couple of times a year. Unfortunately I wasn't good enough to play him.
  10. I'm sure a few have come up on here recently. Smudgedon's ones for example.
  11. So called update, more like drivel to pad it out... Pregnant duchess taken to hospital 22 July 2013 07:39 The Duchess of Cambridge has been admitted to hospital and is in the early stages of labour, Kensington Palace has said. She travelled by car from the palace to St Mary's in Paddington, west London, with her husband the Duke of Cambridge. The couple do not know the sex of their first child, who will be third in line to the throne. The BBC's Nick Witchell said there was likely to be no more news until the official announcement of the birth. The duchess's due date had never been officially announced The world's press have been camped outside St Mary's for days in anticipation of the birth. The due date had never been officially announced but had widely been expected to be mid-July. Royal vehicles were seen at a back entrance to the hospital at about 06:00 BST, with the announcement coming from Kensington Palace an hour-and-a-half later. The duchess is being tended by a top medical team led by the Queen's former gynaecologist Marcus Setchell, who delivered the Countess of Wessex's two children. Assisting him is Alan Farthing, the former fiance of murdered TV presenter Jill Dando and the Queen's current gynaecologist. The Duke of Cambridge has been with his wife on annual leave and will have two weeks' paternity leave. It is believed the next time the couple will be seen in public is when they appear on the steps of the hospital with their baby. The way the birth will be announced is steeped in tradition. It is custom for news of royal births and deaths to be attached to the railings of Buckingham Palace but in this case, it will be displayed on an ornate easel in the forecourt of the palace. The Queen, senior members of the Royal Family, and the duchess's family - if they are not at the hospital - will be told about the birth first. Then a royal aide will take the bulletin, signed by key medical staff, from the hospital to the palace under police escort. After the note is displayed, an announcement will be posted on Twitter and Facebook, and the media will be informed. Under new laws to succession the baby will remain third in line to the throne regardless of gender. The couple announced they were expecting their first child in December after the duchess was admitted to hospital suffering from severe morning sickness. Since the announcement, the duchess has carried out 19 days of public engagements before going on maternity leave in the middle of June. Catherine's final public appearance before the birth was at the Trooping the Colour ceremony in June. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were married at Westminster Abbey in April 2011, watched on television by millions of people around the world. Are you or any of your friends and family due to give birth today? Let us know if your baby shares the royal birth date BBC © 2013 Just a waiting game now really...
