The next King...

[Bbbananas]

... Charles or William?

or Elvis II ?

[ummmm]

Charles....I think after all this time he should be given a shot at it.

How old is now?

[Bbbananas]

He's about 60 odd isn't he?

[Bbbananas]

61

[ummmm]

So there's a good chance he wouldn't be in for long.

Dont want charles as King but look how old the queen is. He could be king well into his 80,s

[Bbbananas]

I think William, at only 28, is far too young still to have that responsibility (burden) put upon him. Let the lad have a stab at a 'normal' life before he's thrust on that particular throne. But in good time I actually think he will make a better job of it - he's more in touch with us 'common people' than his father. If the monarchy still exists in good time.....

[cherrychapstick]

i thought charles wasn't allowed to be king

[ummmm]

Why Cherry?

[cherrychapstick]

when he got remarried sorry not up with the times but wasn't it all over the news at the time that he couldn't become king ?
i know that was 4 years ago and i don't follow the royals so i am probably wrong

[ummmm]

No....that would be true if this was a Catholic country.

[Bbbananas]

No cherry - but they did say that if Charles became King, that the public would unlikely to accept Camilla as his Queen - they would give her the monika of King Consort or some such silly title.

[Rev Sermon]

There's no reason for Charles not to become king. He wouldn't be excluded on the basis of ability or popular opinion just look at our royal history.

I think it's quite likely he will take on the role for a short time then quietly abdicate to give good king willy the job.
