When I think of that slim wee lass accomodating such a bulk we may yet hear the pet name Prince Buster.

> I hope they don't call him Prince Albert. Reminds me of the rather painful-sounding male piercing.

Yes, speaking as a male without such a piercing, I could really do with as little reminding of that as possible ...

[gulliver1]

Good job he was not born three days ago, he would have shared his birthday with Adolf .

[DTCwordfan]

He's sharing with my mater and that must nearly be as bad as sharing with Adolf...

[webbo3]

I quite like the name Albert, Prince Albert has a nice ring to it.

It's a shame when a royal baby (or any baby for that matter) is born, people can relate that to cock piercings. Don't you just love the (very cynical) British?

Well Prince William did let it slip that the new baby is a boy and that his name is going to be Jack back on April 11th.

Many congratulations to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

That's the one ( probably John I think ).

Who really cares what he is named it will be a boring traditional " royal " name. Poor wee thing looked cold, standing on the steps of the lindo wing in a thin hat and shawl and so newly born .

[naomi24]

He looked cold? We only saw a very brief glimpse of his face!

[anneasquith]

My bad naomi, he looked just all cuddly and warm , that suit you better ? :-)

[naomi24]

Sounds about right.

And isn't it the face that shows such feelings?

// 0800 the beeb have put together a photo collage with music. Beethoven - scherzo or rondo from a symphony. Does anyone know which one? //

Beethoven's Erotica - No 3 - third movt - allegro e scherzo

[yeah yeah I know there is no erotica - eagle eyed Abers pointed out to me a few days ago that Stanley Baxter was NOT the prime minister who preceded Chamberlain]

[hereIam]

He looked all warm and snuggly to me !

Apparently Kate was worried he was getting cold, so they didn't hang around too long on the steps. This was from a lip reader, according to the Daily Mirror.
