Surprised that they are not attending already as they fit at least two of the three criteria that I listed very early in this thread.These days most of the population would have no idea who/what the Prince of Wales is or was.Would you like me to invite Malcolm and Bill along, you could wave to them!!! They are royalty aren't they?!
No, I wouldn't bother to wave to him either..............It is interesting that people still come out in numbers to see the Royal Family.
Back in the 1920's it would have been the biggest event many would have witnessed in their lives. Although I do believe that particular trip was to shore up wavering support for the empire after the events of World War One.
What was it:
- politicians
- parasites
- sycophants
IIRC.
Have you run out of spotless new train proof vests and polished crash hats perhaps?
Couldn't expect them to attend as it is only the greatest public works project (along with the Snowy Mountains Scheme) in Australian History.
