When Meghan Markle and Prince Harry of Wales got engaged on 27 November 2017 lots of people had high hopes for the couple and wanted her to do well in her new role. They would “modernize” the monarchy, she would be a fresh wind in the rather stiff British royal family. Things have gone down […]
Christmas is nearing
Like the royals I am preparing for Christmas and New Year. Christmas cards are slowly arriving here, also royal ones, and I bought my Christmas tree on Tuesday. I’ve also added decoration at the window and above my computer, where I sit most of the day, listening to Christmas music of course. The royals are […]
Scottish exhibition – A Royal Wedding: The Duke and Duchess of Sussex
There were two main reasons for choosing Scotland as my holiday destination earlier this month. One was the fact that I enjoyed my visit 13 years ago very much and really wanted to go back. The other one was the small exhibition “A Royal Wedding: The Duke and Duchess of Sussex” at the Palace of […]
Prince Harry: The adventures of a royal cat (3)
I won’t bother you with cat stories all the time, but some people might want an update on Prince Harry and a good photo now I am certain he is not someone else’s. I want to let you all know that I am doing fine. I have been sleeping a lot in the past few […]
UPDATE 24-8 Prince Harry: The adventures of a royal cat (2)
I am one sad cat! Because I had a wound at my back near my tail, that after two weeks started bleeding again, Netty decided to take me to the vet today. Very bad idea! First the female neighbour nextdoor came and tried to get me in the cat basket with some food. I didn’t […]
You’ve got royal mail (3)
Since most of the Christmas answers arrived – unfortunately not the beloved yearly card from Monaco – it has become silent in my mailbox. However I’ve sent a few cards around May and today received a lovely reply. As usual posted from Buckingham Palace, still with stamp of Kensington Palace at the back of the […]
Prince Harry – Invictus Games in The Hague
The first official event of Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex, after the birth of his son Archie Harrison, was the launch of the Invictus Games The Hague 2020. He probably would have prefered to stay at home with his newborn son, but the little boy was born after his due date it seems, and […]
You’ve got royal mail (2)
Just got back home from a shopping tour in the city and finally found the reply of Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex, and Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex, in my mailbox. Over the months I have seen people slowly receiving the wedding card of Harry and Meghan. The card shows a wonderful black and […]
Prince Harry: The adventures of a royal cat (1)
Let’s face it! I have found my own Meghan, who is actually called Netty. But I really don’t understand why I am not allowed in her house. I sneak in from time to time anyway, either through the bedroom-window or the backdoor if I get a chance. She has quite a narrow kitchen, a small […]
Let’s Introduce You To … An Almost Royal Cat!
No, this is actually not my cat. One of the neighbours in the back must be the owner, I have no idea whom it is. Although I really wonder how much time he spends there. He hangs around in my garden daily, sometimes even most of the day. And when I come outside, he sometimes […]
