You have to remember though as one of the glitterati, she won't be waiting hours for a bus that has no heating and travelling to an unheated building to work like the rest of us. I am sure she will travel in a warm limo with everywhere she visits as warm as it should be.
I have to say that the one thing that surprised me when Diana Spencer appeared was that she drove an Austin Metro, which was not very posh.

More 'the line of parasites'.

Here's the line of succession as it stands today.
- The Prince of Wales. Heir to the throne and the next king of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth Realms. ...
- The Duke of Cambridge. ...
- Prince George. ...
- Princess Charlotte. ...
- The new Prince/Princess of Cambridge. ...
- Prince Harry. ...
- The Duke of York. ...
- Princess Beatrice.
- Princess Eugenie
1) Prince of Wales = Charles
2) Duke of Cambridge = William
3) Prince George = William's 1st Born (Heir)
4) Princess Charlotte = William's 2nd Born (Spare)
5) New Prince/Princess of Cambridge = William's unborn offspring (Doesn't actually join the line until birth, I assume.)
6) Prince Harry = (Can I assume that any offspring of Harry would fall into line below him in the order in which they are born?)
7) Duke of York = Who is the Duke of York?
8) Princess Beatrice = ?
9) Princess Eugenie = ?
Afraid I'm not really up on how the monarchy thing works. When William was born to Charles and Diana he was the heir and when Harry was born, he became the spare. Now that William has children his first born, George, is the heir, while Charlotte, his second born is the spare. Does it matter if the next child is a male or female?
Alas! I must admit to being ignorant of who the current Duke of York is and although I vaguely remember hearing the names of Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, I sadly don't exactly know where they fit into the royal family.
Re: You Got To Be Kidding!
Okay! If my research is correct, Andrew, the younger brother of Charles is the current Duke of York and Beatrice and Eugenie are his offspring. Since he has no male offspring the title will cease to exist upon Andrew's death. But it appears the title can be recreated as needed in the future.
Geez! This stuff can make your head spin.

Re: You Got To Be Kidding!
Thank you for the link. Alas! I didn't see my name on the list anywhere so I don't think I'll be forced to assume any royal duties anytime soon. ;-)
Re: You Got To Be Kidding!
Prince Harry needs children! To further remove the possibility of Andrew or his daughters inheriting.

Re: You Got To Be Kidding!
So he needs kids so that more than six people would have to die before Andrew could make it ti the throne. Geez! Talk about a tough room.:rolleyes:
