Rather interestingly...We are getting Charles and Camilla as our representives for the Daimond Jubilee. We were hoping for Wills and Kate or Prince Harry - but they got the cool assignments, guess we in NZ really are on the outer fringes now. - Prince Charles has a low opinion of NZ...Must have really made his day when 'mummy' drew his name out of the hat.

What makes you think that? I can't imagine how New Zealand could provoke that kind of negativity from anyone.

I hate the fuss the media makes about the royals. I respect the Queen (and the service and stability she has provided), but in the end, they are just a rich family to me.

There are far greater people in the world doing amazing things that don't get any attention at all.

Well, you could say the same about the fuss your media makes about who the next president will be. They are all mostly just rich people jockeying for power aren't they?
