Awww!!!!!!! Look at William’s reaction when a girl give him a gift for kate. Between 25 sec- 30 sec.
I don’t see what moment it was.
I think that it was at the very end wen he was looking at a picture. I think that his reaction was cut off.
Morning guys…here is a tweet from the royal reporter,Richard Palmer..
“An old friend of the young princes told me last night he thinks William and Kate will wed this year. I think it unlikely. We shall see.”
Lisa – wouldn’t that be the best!! I bet they opt for a lot smaller wedding than PC & Diana. KM will make a beautiful bride!

By the way, read somewhere that Camilla got 5th grandchild last Sunday – a boy for Tom and his wife.
Lisa I hope the old friend is correct. I have always thougth they would marry after pw finishes training so the could move to his post as a married couple lik qe and pp did when he was on active duty. A fall wedding woulf be wonderful
I miss ex Royal Reporter, Duncan Larcombe. He is actually the War Correspondent of The Sun.
Here’s an interesting latest reporting involving a RAF/SAR pilot in Afghanistan, Helmand Province.

Good Evening,
Well guys, you know how positive I am about William & Kate. I just don’t think it will happen this year. The biggest thing I think we could get this year is their announcement. There is just so much planning they will have to do, unless all this is going on without our knowledge. I guess we shall see. I just still think their wedding will finally take place this upcoming year.
That is indeed amazing Me. It takes a great deal of courage and God himself to help you through a tough and dramatic moment like that. I know HRH The Princess Royal would be proud of the pilot as she just visited that same base camp in Afghanistan.

^^^I hope so to Rman. Have you read the latest of John at Royalanecdotes?
Me, I’m just keeping the faith and try not to think so low of this relationship. I find it sad that some people always think so low of William & Kate. Yes, there are times I too think William could handle things much better but I’m truly seeing the effort he’s putting in this relationship. Right now he’s juggling military training, royal duties and a longtime relationship very well. I don’t think he could do that if he didn’t have a partner that is equally making an effort to make things work. I’m telling you my friends that there’s a great modern love story here but all the speculations and rumors have a way of clouding our vision. The strength of William & Kate’s love for each other never really seem to make it to the papers and some people see think that is because nothing is really there. Just two people hanging on with no purpose. I see something special and I think it has impressed The Queen, Prince Philip, Prince Charles and the royal family.
I think really do think the long road for this couple is 2010. They will make it though.

Tweet- William & Kate Spotted.
“My first time in London and guess who I met today at Harvey Nichols? I was in line at the cashier and the lovely couple next to me-
was Prince William and his girlfriend Kate Middleton. He’s DREAMY!!!! Sending friend request now!!”

1.) Loved the Lord Snowden pics – I didn’t know how pretty Princess Margaret was – hadn’t seen too many pics of her.
2.) Not to be the rain cloud in the room or anything, but it think it would be more likely that William and Kate would announce their engagement this year than actually get married – it would take to long to put something like that together.
And, finally;

i think that engagement we not happen this year i agree on rman congrats to tom and sara a Parker Bowles
I don’t believe W & K will get married while this sleazy labour lot are in charge. Engagement may well be announced prior to general election.
Hi Guys,
Just a reminder to go easy on the politics…
Thanks!
total change of subject—- how does the royal family members pick out names for their children? do the parents have a lot of input or is there some sort of protocol in place? i tried looking on the internet but just could not find a site that explained it well. also how are the godparents picked?
thanks
Rman,
I don’t believe that tweet… Did you scroll down and read her others? “Husband suggests I drink Febreeze”???!
sojourner, there were several tweets yesterday about William being spotted in London shopping. They were at a sporting goods store also,I think.
Morning,
It’s March, they may be going on a spring vacation.
We’re on vacay in Nassau Bahamas at The Cove. Nice place. Cold here though. Bummer. Just thought I’d check in to see if on the off chance there is any engagement or other news. Oh well. Back to bars. LOL
Lisa and Rman,
Great! Happy for them to be out and about. Cool to know they shop at Harvey Nichols like so many other privileged young couples
But I could not simply take seriously a tweet from that source. I mean, really.
No engagement shall be announced before an election. It stands to reason that the RF would want the wedding hyped. No chance of that before an election or even shortly after.
With regards to the brave helicopter pilot in Afghanistan, where does it say he was a S&R pilot?
Ordinary pilots can be tasked with picking up casualties as well. Whatever he was, I think he just managed to earn himself the St George’s Cross which is Britains second highest medal. The first being the Victoria Cross.
