I'm with Tonks here.I was pleased that everyone was ok,as in any birth, and I hope they all have a happy family life(as I'm sure they will).I think what p*sses me off is the totally over the top behaviour and sycophancy of some of the media.I suspect that New Years Honours awards are in the sights of some of the reporters.
I'm not an anti Royalist because as figureheads,they are preferable to the alternative which could be a President Blair/Clegg/Milliband/Cameron etc.
