Duke Of Edinburgh In Hospital.

[Theland]

98 and gone into hospital for a check up on a pre existing condition.
Has had a good run after landing on his feet all those years ago.
A very fortunate man.
Has, "worked hard," and, "supported the Queen," and given, "a life of service to our country."
Oh dear. Tears welling up in my eyes.

a popular mistake, though, davebro. People wanted Christmas back again. It's not great being ruled by hardline religious (or other) fanatics.

Theland especially but any others, If you have enough money you can get private health care, normally from the same consultants and doctors that work for the NHS as well.

It must be something pretty serious otherwise his doctors would have been paying him a visit at home .
