That to smile less.
Good Morning Thursday 30th April 2026
Any suggestions for free word games please?
Recalled for a further appointment after a routine mammogram
I know it is another Harry thread but …………
I am very sad to read that Prince Harry is going to write his memoirs, I suspect Meghan is behind the idea. I really don’t think he should, to me it feels as though he is constantly broadsiding the Royal family. We all have family difficulties but no good comes of putting it out there for everyone. He should just quietly get on with his life with his family and stop having a go. Anyway, are we really interested? I certainly won’t buy his book.
That to smile less.
Sorry Lucca but I dont think I have said anything nasty, and nor have many others. So I think the generalization is unwarranted.
I always think it's best to take the bull by the horns, so to speak, rather than generalize.

Have you actually read this thread?
It's not sweetness and light, is it?
Oh dear, here we go! Time to bale out.
It's been really great to have been able to have a thoughtful serious conversation and I have enjoyed it, but now its clearly time to go so thanks for the chat , maybe it can be repeated another day.
Don’t stop posting Jabberwok it happens on every thread re
Meg and Harry, best ignore jibes and continue to post your opinions .
I imagine Harry gives very little consideration to the impact of his actions, and if he does I suspect he believes he is vindicating his mother's memory.
Oh thank you Annie, I hope you are ok and not finding the heat too much. I will say that I agree with easybee that Harry probably considers his actions justified as he is vindicating his mothers memory.against the people who helped to kill her, as he sees it. But why aim all this at William? After all he wasn't responsible for his mothers perceived treatment. This can only be born out of jealousy or?!

Alegrias just dont generalize.
I don’t really want to repeat myself, but I really do wonder what Harry is trying to achieve by writing this book. They already had Finding Freedom and the interview. What is he looking for that the exposure of the books, podcasts, and interviews haven’t given him? Will he finally feel free of whatever burdens he feels he carries after this book? It is indeed strange, to me, anyway. I cannot see how it is money, he’s always been used to having money. How does he think these books and interviews will impact on his children as they grow up? It all seems inconsidered to me.

Your right it isnt really the money. It isnt freedom from the press or the RF.
The only possible answer is he wants to be at least equal status to William.
That is only achieved through diminishing his brothers position and investing in one in America.
Your guess is as good as mine what that would be. Megan for President?
Harry as the new Oprah?
I wonder why they feel the need to employ the best Publicist company, in-the-world?
If they were not going to use them to their full potential, wouldnt it be a total waste of money?

Okey doke Namsnanny, seeing as you don’t like generalisation, here’s some specifics from this thoughtful, serious conversation:
P.H is a very troubled man and hasn't really looked happy since his wedding day. (see attached)
when this trash is published (that’s nice)
I would not want the forth coming Christening to be in the UK (newsflash – you don’t get a say)
She obviously hates the RF (does she, aye?)
Also hear they are hoping to have their daughter christened, no chance of this happening now
(have they been excommunicated?)
Especially as the Queen wasn't invited last time (am I correct?). (no, actually)
They’ve registered Archewell in Nevada as they can then keep 95% of the charity money raised. (Accusations that they are going to keep the money which is meant for the charity. Is that libel or slander, can’t remember which is which?)
a two bit hustler who hit the jackpot. 
all her Soho House sexperience (does this even need a comment?)
If this is a serious and thoughtful discussion, I wouldn’t like to see you all when you’re being malicious and spiteful.
Oh stop it your creasing me up! 
My comment was a question hence the question mark.
They are a very photogenic couple aren't they?
We aim to please.
Where should the random question mark go?
Said with a Kenneth Williams 'Yes Matron' voice:
Welllll Reeeelly! I'm sure I'm too polite to tell you 
Was there a random question mark?
Sorry missed that!
"It's not sweetness and light is it" no, but then again H's behaviour isn't sweetness and light either is it.
If someone's prepared to publicly trash their family they should expect to receive criticism for doing so. He's been 'writing' this book for a year and only notified the Queen moments before there was to be a public announcement.
His betrayal and maliciousness are off the scale.

So agree with you or you’re not playing any more ??
Thoughtful serious conversation ????

Just watched Colin Brazier on the best putdown of Harry Wales.. some won’t like it, it’s on GB news You tube.
Ooooo! You've done it now Lincslass I hope you have a tin hat ready?
Didn't know you were a member of the thought police Lucca. Just because you don't agree with some of the comments made, doesn't mean they are neither thoughtful or serious.
I agree that he is a troubled man. If the book is anything like the Oprah interview it will be trash. If I were his GM, father or brother, I wouldn't want the Christening to be in the UK.
If his family are so awful, why would they want it to be.
To say that M obviously hates the RF is a reasonable suggestion as she'd gone out of her way to destroy them and their relationship with H.
Don't know if the post about registering Archewell in Nevada so they can keep 95% of the charity money raised is correct or not.
IMO she is "a two bit hustler who hit the jackpot" although she may find that she's gradually sucking the life out of the goose who lays the golden egg.
Personally don't agree with the Soho House comment but as I've previously posted they're bound to attract unwelcome comments because of the way they behave.
Why do people who disagree with the sisterhood get branded the Thought Police?
Oh, wait, I know.
Do tell.

Why are you assuming his wife is behind it? He has a mind of his own.
Yes, I am assuming, she is very manipulative and if she says jump, he say how high. This was apparent in the Oprah interview. He should have a mind of his own but I fear he doesn’t!
As I don't know either of them personally, I won't make assumptions or do the default blame the wife/DIL thing.
Why are you assuming the wife is behind it?
Probably because all this only surfaced after he met Meghan, and escalated after his marriage. Like many others before him, he has seen things differently through his partner’s eyes.
Whether all that’s for the best is another matter.
