William and Kate....

[I.Don No]

appear to have gone on honeymoon and are staying in a villa that costs £4000 a night.....

I thought we were all in this together....seems not

[coli05anna00]

hey we have the royal family, were british we should be proud. no its not much fun being in a recession but we have always had a royal family and do you see it changing?

[joggerjayne]

Ventator has got it right.

We will always look at people with more than us, and think "them and us"

but, look down, instead of up ... there are a lot of people with whom we would not want to swap our lifestyles.

and, sure ... some above us whom we envy.

But we're okay here in the middle, arent we ??

[classylady60]

Well said Carakeel, totally agree with you.

[chrissa1]

Three cheers for Venator and Carakeel. When we got married, we had friends who had more disposable income than we did and could spend more than us on their wedding, but that's life. We certainly didn't gripe about it or envy them. Get a grip, I.Don No et al.

[anneasquith]

if im not paying for it, i dont care where they go !

[Twenty20]

But are they 'paying for it themselves'?

How many RAF rescue pilots can afford accommodation at £4000 per night in the Seychelles?

[jackthehat]

William is a wealthy young man, in his own right.
He and Harry benefitted under the terms of his mother's will............or perhaps some would like to grumble about that, too ?

[McMouse]

It's only money. They've got it and are spending it and it helps the local economy. Oh and bye the way he pays tax and NI.

[mike11111]

I feel sorry for them. The Seychelles? No Fosters- no bingo, no KFC - no kebabs - these guys are suffering for England!

[rov1100]

You are right Jack the Hat. I think Diana left them about £6m each which she screwed from Charles in the divorce settlement. Compare that with Fergie who gets just £500 a month allowance.

[237SJ]

Good for them. I hope they have a great time and manage to avoid the paparazzi. They should have phoned me - I couldn`t have got them a good deal on the hotel :-)

[DTCwordfan]

So you are going to suggest to let the future king of england and his recent wife go and stay in some sleazy two star dump in Majorca, Benidorm or Newquay, where all and sundry can find him and her.....never mind the fecking paparazzi who would be looking (and sniffing) for the stains on the sheets, you are prepared to let them be exposed to the ex-Osama Bin Liner and his terrorist asssociates.

Get real, or you are certainly delusional with a big "D."

[237SJ]

Oh dear, just read my post again and I meant *could`ve*

[anneasquith]

" future king of england " and people wonder why we may vote for independence !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chrissa1]

Independence from what anne?

[pretty_snowdrop]

William is going to be the future king of England. The fact that he may be king of other countries in irrelevant to the point crossword was making.

[DTCwordfan]

well given the Scots "took over" the English throne with James VI of Scotland becoming James 1 of England, that is fecking rich, AnneA.

[DTCwordfan]

Obviously, they didnt make a very good job of it as Scottish monarchs surplanted on to the throne and you had four of the buzzards before we learnt to give up on the Stuarts. (3 of which were even heathen Scottish Catholics)....as they became English for all the good reasons.

[pretty_snowdrop]

He didn't stay in Scotland either, he moved his court to London.
