William Hit Harry (The Guardian)

Washerwoman

The comment that he didn't tell Meghan but immediately rang his therapist seems totally at odds to the allegation that when M was struggling with her mental health they weren't allowed access to therapy .How odd that he can can call for help over an argument with his brother ,but not when his wife is having a mental health crisis. Or is it me ?

I’m struggling with understanding this too.

Thanks for that Callistemon, it does occur to me should Willy and Harold have another face to face they might consider donning some chain mail. In fact there's plenty of armour hanging around at Windsor Castle which is handy.

Every home should have a mini Bayeux Tapestry Callistemon, I rather think this unfolding story of the discord between the warring Windsor Brothers, aka Willy and Harold might have also been revealed in tapestry form, sometimes words are not enough, now what's the word that rhymes with stitching ????

Well, there's something round his neck.

Joseanne I don't suppose you could find the bit of tapestry that shows Harold's necklace glinting through his chain mail, I think it had an E linked to an H, it was from an ex-girlfriend, could have been Edith, Ethel, Edwina, well obviously not Edwina Curry well they didn't have many names then that didn't begin with E!

I do have a mini Bayeux Tapetry amongst my junk possessions, Terribull but not sure where and I'm too tired to seek it out tonight.

However - if problem is unresolved tomorrow I will start a hunt!

Whatever Harold is whinging about and whether he has genuine grievances or not the fact remains that if circumstances had not changed this book would have been published while the Queen was alive, which I find totally abhorrent.

Quite! Harold may well have lost his eye, but I gather his necklace was still intact , it's all there in the Bayeux Tapestry, I know I've seen it! furthermore although it changed the course of history, during the course of the battle no dog bowls were broken, this is a little known fact that rarely gets mentioned.

There's 55 dogs in the Bayeux Tapestry, but I think in medieval times they just ate scraps from the floor. No bowls.

There was a dog on Dogs Behaving Very Badly the other day which refused to eat from a bowl, only the floor.

Its owner wasn't called Harry, as far as I know.

I was the eldest child but my sibling was a boy therefore he had the biggest room.

😃
Time for a new tapestry (à la Bayeux) maybe?

I had to share my bed with several others, it was often wet (I’m not saying who the guilty party was). Harry has no idea of what it’s like in many families even today. Many children have no bed at all. These are the reasons I dislike this man child so much. Bleating on and on and making mountains out of molehills. Grow up you selfish pair.

😂😂😂

It will be, in a few years' time, SueDonim, but we have to wait.

I am sure not all second children have so many problems, although I know from first hand experience one who certainly has, but it must be a lot worse in the Royal Family where the role of spare is institutionalised.

Harry should have got better help many years ago. I doubt whether he would be receptive to help now.

Well as a second child, I never got the brand new bike second child, second hand bike

Huh!
As the oldest of three children I wasn't allowed pink pyjamas as my brother wouldn't want them after me, so I had to have blue and yellow.
By the time they fitted my younger sister they were worn out, so she got new pink pyjamas.
I can still picture the shop counter and feeling hard done to... ☹️🤣

Oh no, my bear is stuffed into a box in the attic
One day, Teddy, I will take you to The Repair Shop.

No he couldn't! if he committed such a heinous crime, stuffing bears into a cupboardy place over stairs, he could well be reported to The RSPCSB that's The Royal Society of the Prevention of Cruelty to Stuffed Bears, if you aren't already familiar with that acronym.. Interestingly he was a patron of that society but was recently forced to stand down, as he was deemed. unsuitable a person to be around inanimate stuffed creatures. Allegedly it caused him great sadness, he's known to still care about his own bears, they have clothes and names you know!

Exactly Deedaa. He says he was 'scared' when William confronted him. Yet he faced and killed insurgents?

Well it's a bit different if it's your brother.

Oh yes, he didn't have any ammunition.

I reckon you've got the premise of a tell all book then TerriBull it sounds traumatic, possibly even abusive. Quick get writing!

I actually think the whole Royal family needs to sleep in the box room

...and where would Prince Andrew put all his teddy bears, a box room usually means a single bed, have you any idea how many bears he has, they all have a designated place you know

he could put them in that cupboard thing that goes over the stairs

FannyCornforth

Can I just add my name to that of Elizabeth Hurley, that as ‘an older woman’ who has oft times been spotted ‘in a field at the back of a pub’; it was nowt to do with me

You took the words right out of my mouth!
