I thought the tv coverage was superb in every respect and the whole event superb in every aspect. I wish them well.

 

(and the sister is hotter)

Yeah I saw that too, give him credit though, he stayed there holding it even after she was walking up the carpet and didn't slam it in frustration and key it afterwards

Does anyone know how to get a place on a helicopter pilots course with only a D in 'A' level art ?

Prince William got 3 A-levels and a 2:1 in his geography MA degree at St Andrew's.

 

Prince Harry with his 2 A-levels fulfilled the normal entry requirement for Sandhurst, as well as the selection board, and he also (like William) had to pass the selection board for helicopter training.

 

HDD - sign up for the forces, pass the selection board, do the six months officer cadet basic training, the six months specialist training, and then the selection board for helicopter training, and you too will get a 'free' helicopter pilot's course.

No thank you, I would never swear an oath to THEM and country.

I am NOT a subject and refuse to be treated as one !

Whilst on the issue of the wedding, I am of the opinion that an ideal opportunity was lost to make the nuptuals available PPV on the internet and so recompense the people of this (austere) country for the cost to us of this farce.

Just my opinion

HHD, why did you ask how to get on a helicopter course if you knew in advance that you would never join the armed forces ?

 

If you genuinely want to fly helicopters, without joining the armed forces, let me know - one of my young nephews is now flying civil helicopters to-from the north sea oil rigs, based in Aberdeen. He is well paid, but much of that pay goes towards paying off the loan he took in order to qualify. But he bloody well enjoys it - fantastic.

 

Others that I know, have happily joined the Armed forces and following courses as Jim has outlined, become helicopter pilots. A lot less expensive for the individual, and none of them came from privilidged backgrounds. But of course, each was quite happy to swear their oath, probably on the basis of 60 million to a dozen in favour of their fellow citizens.

 

Cheers

 

Don

HHD,

 

When you have passed officer selection then a gruelling 44 weeks at Sandhurst followed by a few more months of Special To Arms training you can complain. You are subject whether you like it or not, but if even you were not your life would not be any different.

Little chance of that as they've extended the ice cream counter. Have some "cream egg" and " honeycomb" in the freezer left over from Fridays festivities:-)

Please understand that the demand for ice cream is no joke! I bet I am the only one here who manufactures ice crean fir a living! The best - one farm milf, and no artificials - and tastes better than sex.

 

The crazy waether has brought a demand that has made all of us tired trying to keep up - thanks be that acceleration of production is held acl by the possibil;yy of pbtaining basic ingredients ...

 

In four weeks I am moving house, so that working is also blended with the beed to sirt a bew house out ...

 

King 'nell, I am tired
