He prolly has a whole 'nother volume to fill after the divorce (that book might be worth reading).

Nah not terribly interested in all that kerfuffle tbh. Amazing that in the midst of nationwide strikes and an NHS crisis that nearly puts the HSE to shame, it's wall to wall coverage of Harry and Meghan VS the rest, such a handy distraction for the Tories.
The only thing I can really understand is Harry's visceral hatred for the gutter press in the UK, they literally hounded his mother into her grave. The rest is not remotely interesting to me.

Kindness and giving can on the surface appear to be selfless. However there are those who use it to fill a need in themselves, boost their self worth, feel needed, receive praise. etc.
Meghan appears to care about humanity and makes attempts at supporting and advocating for particular groups. Just like Diana she strikes me as warm and open.
The thing about human beings is that we are more than one trait, one characteristic. Being warm doesn't mean we aren't also manipulative and being selfish doesn't mean we are not giving.
I remember long a go having a lovely and interesting chat with someone. The circumstances were unusual and I did know that he was a convicted murderer. However had I not known that then there was nothing unusual or sinister about the quiet tea making man almost gentle in his ways.
The older I get the more I can see all of a person.

I thought Diana humanised the RF made them seem more approachable down to earth if that makes sense, she was the people's princess
I think Meghan is her own person and won't toe the line, be ordered about plus the British media are really awful to her
I've always felt Megan was more calculating... She has been treated awfully by a lot of people, no doubt, but she had nearly 20 years of life experience on Diana, including being a public figure, when she agreed to join the family. I feel like she would have understood what was going to happen, but it was like she just thought she could use the position to get what she wanted and that was never just about marrying him...
Diana was a kid when she got swept up in the whole thing - yes she was an idealistic, day dreaming idiot about it too, but I feel she was coming from a much more innocent/ unknowing space. I have a lot more time for Diana getting trapped in her childhood fantasy than I do Megan trying to manipulate the world since 'Megxit' 🤔😕

Hearing how Harry was told about his mother's death with no emotion shown to him from either Charles or Willy is sad, a little lad not understanding, those brothers should have been so close

Perhaps if Diana had have been in her thirties when she met Charles we wouldn't have any experience of her being idealistic and swept away. She does evoke more sympathy and I can see why. I'm not a fan of hers or Harry or Meghan but I like to try and understand how it must have been, is, for them. Why people are the way they are is my thing, I like to wonder 😊

Cold I can deal with, rain and wind can piss right off though. Doing this Healthy Steps challenge for the GAA club at the moment and there hasn't been a single feckin day it hasn't been raining so far, it's really frustrating!

No, I am technologically impaired lorcand. I couldn't make the offsite discord thing work, or rather I couldn't get my email to work for signing up, so no I didn't watch any of it... Think I tried following a cooking one here a few years ago, but couldn't make sense of it.

Good I think, I can't remember think it was a lazer weapon or something. I think it was the mario and sonic game I took part in, I was trying to convince them I wasn't the wolf and got into an argument with someone
