Boo me down if you like but congrats to the parents Wills and Kate this week but if I had one grievance about it all is the amount of media attention it got

Complete overkill I appreciate it being the news of the day but its become the news of the week! The year even! I got it the first day and what makes me puke is all the fuss surrounding as if people suddenly got goo goo over a baby when most times they fucking hate kids

Im just moaning because the other night I was watching the news on BBC waiting for some latest on The PC Blakelock news and the wee bairn had me waiting half the damn show to get REAL news...I got your good news in the first 30 seconds and had it smacked in my face for 15 motherfucking minutes with all this bullshit how Wills mastered the baby chair and Kate wore the same dress as Wills mum and people banging on about weight and names and all that ga-ga shit

Please. Enough already. I hate the news you cant escape! Its like chinese water torture

Some people are Royalists and just love anything to do with the royals. I thought it was overkill too. The media must have thought this was the most important thing in the world at the time.

But fancy calling it George, most of the previous royals named George have either been mad or did silly things, but i suppose if the hat fits !wink!

That's not true. One went mad (III), one was rather extravagant (IV); the other four king Georges were reasonably normal. Apart from having an affair with No?l Coward, the Duke of Kent was normal. The first Prince George of Cambridge was normal too.
