Prince Harry

[fourteen85]

There has been talk in the press lately about him having lied on his visa form to gain entry to the USA, could he be stopped from re entering after the coronation?

Barsel - // Andy //Secondly, it is precisely because the date fell on his grandson's birthday that the date was chosen //

Do you really believe that? //

Obviously, or I would not have posted it.

// I would have thought that date was chosen because it was convenient for hundreds of guests that were invited. //

Regardless of the 'convenience' - or indeed inconvenience, for the hundreds of guests, the King's convenience, and that of his immediate family, is the first consideration, before any plan starts formulation.

I think someone somewhere would have reminded the King - if he needed reminding - that the proposed date was a family birthday, and the King would, if he wished, have changed the date to a week before, or after, with no obvious issue that I am aware of.

So yes, as i stated, i think the date was selected as a 'get out clause' for Harry and his wife to reject his invitation with something approaching a feasible reason, other than the one that they despise the monarchy, and want nothing to do with it.

// By the way, did you read that there was no party and that Meghan was out hiking with a few friends of hers? //

No, but I'm not remotely surprised - as I pointed out above, it's likely that Meaghan didn't not attend because of her son's birthday - he is not going to know that she did that - it's for another, rather more obvious reason.

I think that is why he had such a long suspension Zacs - because he constantly stirs and causes trouble with AH

[Redhelen72]

AH - I added a comment from DM that disputes that and states there was a private party

[Zacs-Master]

Oh really, Red.

;-)

retrocop - // He was daft to say that and when challenged and proved wrong it was deleted. //

Given your gargantuan distrust of Mods in general, and me in particular (well, with one exception, but let's not get into that ...) - if that post was deleted, it was not deleted by me.

Just so you know ...

[naomi24]

AH, I take it that ‘fact’ about why the date was precisely chosen is just your opinion. I’m guessing you’re not privy to such information.

Redhelen - // I think that is why he had such a long suspension Zacs - because he constantly stirs and causes trouble with AH //

The lengths of suspensions are a matter for the Editorial Team, and are not discussed with Moderators, including any who suspend an AB'er.

And since it's my day for clarifications - I did not suspend Retrocop.

[Zacs-Master]

'There is when you take a moment to consider that none of us were there, zacs. That’s common sense'

I'll bear that in mind in future and amend my question for you to prove something accordingly. I'd be grateful if you'd respectfully answer the first time I ask, if possible.

[Barsel]

For those of you who think that date was chosen purposely, do you really believe that King Charles would have said right at the start 'Let's choose this date as it's the kids birthday so hopefully none of them will come?' I mean, how childish do you think the King is?
The King said quite plainly that he wanted Harry there and I believe the King didn't even realise it was Archie's birthday until it was eventually pointed out to him.

[naomi24]

I can’t promise but you have my assurance that I will try to remember than you need it spelt out, zacs.

[retrocop]

AH
Lets just put this to bed once and for all and leave it. I have no problem with any of the mods ,that I know, of except you.
I now know naomi has joined the ranks and I believe her to be a good choice. She is truthful, impartial, adult, and has integrity and if any answers of mine are deleted by her I suspect she would tell me she did and give me a fair and satisfactory reason for doing so.
I will leave it at that as this thread has been diverted enough and is more than likely to be pulled which is unfair to the poster fourteen85.

[Redhelen72]

I know Andy - I wasn't suggesting at all that you had any say in the length of suspension

[naomi24]

Thanks Retro. I appreciate that.

[Zacs-Master]

Naomi, you'd be better remembering not to present things as facts in the first place. Might keep you out of a lot of flack.

[Zacs-Master]

'I suspect she would tell me she did and give me a fair and satisfactory reason for doing so'

Retro must be using an Answerbank connected to a different reality to the rest of us.

[Barsel]

Zacs and you'd be better remembering to stop picking on people.

[naomi24]

No need to trouble yourself, zacs. Flack and I are well acquainted on AB. Some people make sure of it. :o)

[Zacs-Master]

I'm not 'picking' on anyone, barsel.

Yes, Naomi, I'm well aware that you and flack are well acquainted. We're you a WWII Heinkle you'd have had to limp back to base on a number of occasions.

[Zacs-Master]

Oh sorry
;-)

[Mozz71]

I know previously that I said nothing's changed on AB while I've been away, but I think I was wrong. I think it's gotten worse.
