I totally agree... Diana was Humane..


I don't think she much like the big Royal Hunting thing either.


It was very sad when she died.. and the world was a worst place for it..

A point on costs of the Monarchy.


Back in 18th century King George III (?) swapped entitlement a whole bunch of assets now known as the Crown Estates for guaranteed funding from Government, which became the Civil List. This carried on for a couple of centuries until 2011 when the Sovereign Grant was established - this pays a % (not sure how much but I understand less than 10%) of the income generated by the Crown Estates to fund the Monarchy.


So rather than being funded out of 'our' taxes as so many tiresome republicans claim the Monarchy is self funding and , in addition, generates a tidy surplus for government funds.


On the whole, given most countries require a ceremonial head of state, ours aren't too bad. They keep lots of people employed in writing gossip columns and speculation, attract tourists and are far cheaper than any presidential system could ever be.


If you get the chance go see King Charles III - excellent, and strangely believable, satire.

    • A solicitor is acting as the executor for our late Aunt's will.  He only communicates by letter which is greatly lengthening the process.  The vast majority of legal people deal by modern means - the Electronic Communications Act that allows for much, if not all of these means is now 25 years old.   Any views and advice out there? In fuller detail: The value of the estate is not high.  There are a number of beneficiaries including one in the US.  It has taken almost three years and there is no end in sight.  The estate (house) is now damp, mouldy and wall paper falling off the wall. The solicitor is hostile, has threatened beneficiaries the police (which would just waste the police's time), and will not engage constructively. He only communicates by letter.  These are poorly written, curt or even hostile, in a language from the middle of last century, he clearly is typing these himself probably on a type writer.  Of course with every letter he makes more money. We've taken the first steps to complain either through the ombudsman and/or the SRA.  We have taken legal advice a couple of times, which of course isn't cheap, and were told that his behaviour is shocking and we'd be in our right to have him removed through the courts. But.... we just want him to get on with executing the will, primarily selling the house. However he refuses to use any other form of communication but letter.  So writing to the beneficiary in the 'States can take a month to get a reply. And even in this country a week or more. Having worked with lawyers in the past I am aware that email, tele and video conferencing and even text and WhatApp are appropriate means for communication.  There could be an immediate response to his questions.   Help!        
    • Labour should be applauded for bringing in the Renter's Rights Act.  But so many of you are carried away with slagging them off. Married couples with busy lives sometimes forget who did what. On this occasion Mr Rachel Reeves was sorting out the rental agreement.  Ms Reeves was a bit flumoxed with all the grief/demonsing/witch hunts she is getting so forgot to check with her other half.   Not the first or last time this will happen with couples. (That's not having a go at the post above)
    • Hello! I'm looking for a talented, affordable people photographer to do headshots for my start up's website, for 4 people. If you're keen I'd love to see examples of your work please. Many thanks
    • I’d also like to recommend Greg who has done a brilliant job creating an in-built wardrobe, desk and shelving unit in my daughter’s bedroom. It’s transformed the room and I have one very happy daughter as a consequence! He previously did some floating shelves in another bedroom - another excellent job. I can highly recommend.
