Future King
 
HRH the Duchess of York (big mistake - Cambridge as we all know. I am an idiot) - has given birth to a baby boy.

The baby was delivered at 16:24 BST, weighing 8lb 6oz, it was announced in a press release.

15 to 1. Worth a flutter.

Fantastic news!!! Congratulations to the proud parents and welcome to our future King!!!!!

:ok:

Courtney ... that's going to cost you a few beers :ok:


Many congratulations :D:D:D:D

A boy - as RAF Aircrew? He hasn't been flying enough!!!

Don't get at Courtney - everyone knows that York has primacy in all things so it was a natural slip to make!

everyone knows that York has primacy in all things
Rumour has it that, when GeorgeVI died, the Yorkshire Post headline was "Ex-Duke of York Dies". All to do with priorities.

As an aside, when was the last time we had an heir to the heir to the heir to the throne; or is this a first?

It's a baby, told you. Congrats etc.

Congratulations!

Tom,

You did indeed predict that. The only one to get it right. I was hoping for a girl or a really cute puppy. But, hey, it's a boy!

Coff et al,

Bugger. In my rush to to win at 15 to 1 I blew it. And it will be here on the record forever. What can I say? Except I had £1,000 on me. :ouch::mad::uhoh:

But, hey, it's a boy. Our future King.

NutLoose 22nd Jul 2013 20:26

Congratulations.... :D

A good 25 years from now he may be able to fly the F-35 on entry into service.. :}

Oh it was just a bit on a hunch Courtney. Thank God it wasn't a puppy, that would have made for a barking King.

Wensleydale 22nd Jul 2013 21:01



when was the last time we had an heir to the heir to the heir to the throne;
or is this a first?
The last time was the birth of Edward VIII during the reign of Queen Victoria.

Courtney Mil 22nd Jul 2013 21:15

And let's not forget the happy grandparents. Congratulations to Michael and Carole Middleton.

Herod 22nd Jul 2013 21:23

Hi Wensleydale. Yep, I just realised that, and you beat me to it.
