Who knows indeed.

In 1926 it was still highly likely that the Prince of Wales would marry and produce heirs. It was also entirely possible that the Duke and Duchess of York's next child would be a boy, who would take Elizabeth's place in the succession.

Geoffrey, Eleanor and Charlotte are all suitably regal, but I'm not too keen on Adele. How about Matilda?

There is, of course, the slight problem of the Hillaire Belloc poem which begins

'Matilda told such dreadful lies
They made one gasp and roll one's eyes'

Ah well, back to topic.

Lucien,

Will the PoW and the Duchess of Cornwall be accompanying his mother to this meeting as well? I searched for information about this meeting and I found nothing.

Brisbane and Melbourne have now been added to the Queen's Australian itinerary!  As I'm in Melbourne, I'm definitely not going to work that day as it will very possibly be Her Majesty's and His Royal Highness's last visit to Australia and my last chance to see them.  :(  No mention of Duke and Duchess of Cornwall coming.

Let's hope that this won't be the last visit of the Queen of Australia to her beloved Land. Her love of all her Dominion's is tangable and real, as is our connection from old England with the Commonwealth; perhaps even more so in these unstable times.

The Queen and the Prince of Wales don't generally go on tour together - it's one or the other.

Nothing like concerning himself with the issues people really want him to address.  Disaster of a man.  Just my opinion of course.
