Royal Example?

Well. I read it on the internet, so it must be true, that the Brit crown prince and Camilla (the lady who has, allegedly, for years been a heartbeat away from being a kings mistress) are to get hitched.

“So Bluebell, why would you give a toss you raving Republican loon?” well if we must groan under the ridiculous institutions of monarchy and hierarchy. No I am not suggesting that the saxe-coburg-gotha’s set an example, but it can be a silver lining on a cloudy day.

So yes, would have been nice if Charles and Camilla had waited until after the coronation. Then anyone “living in sin” would be able to happily note that they where only doing what the King was doing, and it would be the height of respectability, which would be a good thing.

Why do I muse? I am not the marrying kind anyway. And gone are the days, no doubt, when the upper classes just didn’t bother with monogamy, unless they wanted to. Again, this is probably the one instance where I wish the workers and peasant’s would take inspiration from our so called betters. Roll on the revolution!
