Royal Birth

[maggiebee]

Do people really care so much that they will camp out for days? - apparently yes they do.

With royal baby No. 3 due any day now, St. Mary's Hospital in Paddington has set up barriers outside the Lindo Wing, where Kate will give birth.

Fans are already camping out outside the hospital, hoping for a glimpse of Kate and the baby-which many people now think will be a boy.

World press paps want scoops. Trafalgar Square gives a good cross section of foreigners interested in British, commonwealth & empire history, including our Royal Family. The foreign press generate more income for UK. Best be thankful & inviting as we will need our foreign friends after Brexit.

I don't care if people want to camp out, good luck to them if it makes them happy, it doesn't affect me in any way shape or form. I too am interested in the new baby and looking forward to its birth - hope it's soon.

"jno; Btw, where were you when JFK died?"

I was in bed dosed up with paracetamol, having returned earlier that afternoon from a visit to the dentist where I'd had an impacted molar extracted. At the time I wished I could have joined the unfortunate JFK.

on a bus (I could see the newspaper billboards) with, happily, all my teeth. It's been a long while since I've been able to say that, though.

I was 14. I was in bed when my mother came back from a church meeting and switched on the radio in the dining room under my bedroom. The radio was only ever switched on on Sundays for the top 20 with Alan Freeman so I knew something was up.

I think everyone should be frogmarched to the hospital - and be made to stand to attention , smile and wave flags .

I personally couldn't care less. I would never ever dream of camping out to witness an event like this. She is an over privileged women who's mother manipulated her into the royal family. I don't like William either, I think Harry's wedding to that actress is a farce and won't last and Charles is a joke. I quite like Camilla, I love our queen and Phillip, but when they are gone Viva La Republica!
