Let's see... Diana died in 1997, so by the time he was Colonel in Chief he had several years cohabiting with Camilla. Perhaps that explains the grin on his face!

In a democracy it's your vote that counts; in feudalism, it's your Count that votes.

Green ribbons? Second place. I covert my blue ribbons.

"Colonel in Chief" is an honourary position. The commanding officer would most likely be called the "Colonel", I think. HRH Prince Charles is likely the Colonel in Chief for more than one unit. There are members of the board who know a lot more about this than me, though!

Oi! Sticky out ears and fluffy hair is a symbol of all of us Royals.

Can any other military outfit compare to such kilted finery!

I don't think even the best beer goggles could put a smile on the face of someone co habitating with Camilla. That is one seriously fugly woman.

Seems I have heard of him. What did he do? This getting old is hard.

Don't we have enough portraits of this man? I am an ardent Royalist but, having met him about five times (one of which was at a Christmas party given by Diana and Charles at Kensington Palace), I sincerely hope he never has the chance to become our King. He has so much to answer for.
