During my March 2019 visit to Windsor I of course wanted to have a look at the Long Walk. Me and the friend who accompanied me were too tired for a long walk after our Windsor Castle visit. However we were quite interested to see whether we could see Frogmore Cottage, the future house of […]
Royal thoughts of the week (1)
The way magazines and newspapers report about royal families online, especially in the United Kingdom, gets more and more irritating. Royalty seems to be a kind of theme everybody has an opinion about, yet it isn’t exactly easy to actually understand royal families and monarchies. One has the royal correspondents, royal journalists, royal photographers and […]

Hell of a week
Few posts this year on the blog thus far, which has several reasons. After a few lovely quiet days, the royal year 2023 really started off, when on Thursday 5 January the new book by Prince Harry, “Spare”, was sold already five days earlier than planned. Hell broke loose. Thousands and thousands of articles were […]
Harry & Meghan – Netflix and book
Honestly I think it is time for Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, and his wife Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, to stop trying to convince the media of their side of the story, as that will probably never happen. With a Netflix-documentary and a new book to arrive soon, it seems they are not […]
One last greeting from Royal Cat Prince Harry
Nearly three and a half years I have enjoyed being the cat mommy of a red stray cat called Prince Harry. The first photos I took of him were in May 2018, when he still seemed to be rather young. I was ill at the time, and it felt as if he knew I could […]
Where to watch Harry & Meghans Oprah interview
Oprah With Meghan and Harry: A CBS Primetime will be broadcasted in the coming days. I am going to watch, like many other people, even if I personally think the interview in the form it seems to have, is not a good idea. But it is their decision. Information by CBS (via Chris Ship of […]
Prince Harry: The adventures of a royal cat (5)
It has been a while since you heard something from me. For months I have mainly been living outside for most of the day. I only came home for food. Netty was even worrying that I had found myself a new mom, which of course isn’t true. That all has changed a few days ago. […]
Book review: Finding Freedom
It is the royal book of the year (at least when looking at the amount of publicity): “Finding Freedom. Harry and Meghan and the making of a modern royal family” by royalty journalists Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand. In July 2020 I ordered the book at Amazon, but delivery was so slow that I decided […]
Prince Harry: The adventures of a royal cat (4)
It has been a while since you all heard from me, unless you follow my Twitter account or Netty’s personal Facebook (for friends only she says). I am celebrating my 4th birthday today. It occured to Netty earlier that the vet might have chosen the date because it is International Cat Day. She has no […]
