Apparently during her long reign Queen Elizabeth saw 15 British Prime Ministers, 7 Archbishops, 7 Popes, 10 German Chancellors, 11 Soviet/Russian Presidents, 12 French Presidents, 14 American Presidents and .............. 44 Italian Prime Ministers!  :o   ;D

That is some record ;)

Well said Varche. His statement today was hypocrisy of the highest order.
He never had the slightest intention of being a faithful husband. He was shagging Camila the whole way through his relationship with Diana and almost drove the poor girl mad because of it. Then had has side of "the firm" brief the media that she was nuts and unfit to be a mother.
And forgiveness can only come after repentance.  ;)
To me he is a vile narcissist.

I completely understand what you and Varche are saying.

But, as in said before the Christian approach should be taken with our new head of the Church of England.

Do not judge least you be judged, may those without sin cast the first stone.  The fact is we are all sinners, and those to claim not to be I would suggest are the hypocrites, the liars.  What Prince did was wrong, no doubt about that, and he knows it. 

So let him be judged by the highest authority after death, with us mortals watching how he performs as the new King and judging him on that alone.  That is what matters to us now, not his history.  So many of his male forebears could have also been judged for their “indiscretions” - sins- but they often became great leaders, with direct action in the days of being absolute monarchs and influencers in todays age.  Let him be judged by us mortals on what he does as King.

That is what I believe anyway, and frankly there are far, far bigger worries at the moment than a King who liked a bit of hanky panky, like a lot of men, and yes women as well! ;D

Just been listening to Charlie talking about his deep rooted C of E faith, and the freedoms and responsibilities that go with that faith.
He must have forgotten about the responsibility of not committing adultery being one of the foundation responsibilities of that faith.
He really does make my stomach churn.

I understand what you say, which is how a lot of people will think.

But, as a Christian we understand the teachings of Jesus Christ, including his statement we are all sinners (unless you are a bloody saint!) , we should forgive others for their sins, not judge least we be judged, and foremost be tolerant of others.

The monarchy has always been known for its wayward members, but they have been no different than most of the human race at least in the U.K.  Men, and women, do stray from their so called loved one, as I found out with my husband, for all kinds of reasons.  Not excusing Charles, but I believe he had to also suffer from a women not suited to royal life, and one who needed to be the centre of attention, pampered, all too often.  She was a difficult, troubled soul, and may she be resting in peace now.  She though was a victim of the strict system she married into, and became “lost and lonely” within it.

Life is never perfect.  I just pray that King Charles III can do us all the honour of giving us the neutral, soft, power to help the politicians improve our lot!

God save the King!

A very sad loss indeed.Question now is will Charles[whose whole life has been leading up to this moment]remain King or will he abdicate in favour of William?

Why would he?

To give Wills a good run at the job. He won't though. It's his prerogative of course.  :)

He'll need to keep his opinions to himself from now on though.....especially political opinions.

Absolutely, the major benefit to the UK of a Monarch is having a politically neutral person who can travel and cement international relationships.

I have been fortunate to work on two significant contracts in my career, the award of which had the rails nicely greased by the Queen visiting said nations shortly before. No political agenda is key to this.  :y

Yes indeed  :y :y

That is why the monarchy are such a good investment, great for our country, earn a fantastic amount in tourist revenue, can lead in generating charitable donations, and stop us becoming like the USA with a presidential system ;)

Philanderer is probably the word they would have used to describe him back then. :D

Oh yes, he was called many things…………behind his Royal back! ;D ;D ;)

He could well be like Edward VII, who waited forever for his mum Queen Victoria to depart, then lived just another 9 years.  But he was widely liked, and is classed as a good King. ;)

He wasn't opposed to a bit of 'slap and tickle' with a bosomy  serving wench or two.

Bit of a naughty boy..... :D

Oh yes, indeed, in modern terms he was a bit of a playboy.  He certainly had his loves😀

The ones of note from many, was Jennie Churchill, the American mum of Winston, and amazingly Alice Keppel, the great, great grandmother of now Queen Consort Camilla, the wife of now King Charles III,  great, great grandson of King Edward VII.  How things can go in circle! ;D ;)

That is one lovely looking car, and I have always fancied a Jag :y

If……if I had £25k spare at the moment I would be very tempted of buying that 8) :D ;)

Come on Lizzie....£25000 is back of the sofa money for you. Kent is full of posh wealthy people. :)

I'd imagine that posh wealthy folk in Kent would view a red Jag like that as something a spiv would drive.  :D

 ;D ;D ;D  We see a lot of Jags driving around, even a sports model with 4 exhaust outlets outside Sainsbury’s that I couldn’t identify apart from the Jaguar on the boot lid.

The number of Teslas going around seems to be growing at a fast rate, in black, white, grey and, if I remember correctly, red.  I wish I could afford one, plus Opti’s old Jag :D :D

Indeed a very sad day.

We knew it would come, and I had told myself I would not cry when the inevitable news came.  But I cried like a baby.  Far more than I cried when my parents died.

Very strange.  But the Queen was all I had known. I was born in the year of the Coronation.  I now feel an odd loss :o :o

Anyway, RIP Queen Elizabeth II, a real credit to the British nation. :'(

Got to agree Tig. Sometimes best to just stay away.

But things must be bad for that :o ;)

Never liked milk chocolate though, so always went for Fry’s 5 boys :D ;)

That boy was much cuter regardless of his expression ;)

Harry and Megan probably has a photographer from OK magazine in tow for this historic moment in her life journey.  ::)
Hopefully the queen will be well enough to tell her to bugger orf.  :)

It has just been announced that Megan is not going to travel with her husband to Balmoral, but may  join him later!

What do we make of that?  What a snub?  Or just Megan being Megan?  Not good PR at the very least! ::) ::)
