Well, I was going to mention Prince Edward
Island and Avonlea and Anne (with an E!)
of Green Gables but the article beat me to it!

I've been to P.E.I. twice and to Atlantic
Canada many times.

They seem to be making a wonderful
impression!

Good On Them!

I like to do my planning retroactively!

Be nice to get some tourist revenue in from the actions of some of the decent royals rather than that pillock Andrew! ~x(

You know I don't have a problem with Andrew - he may be a little like his father and put his foot in it at times but I respect the fact served 22 years in the Navy!

I think that is a little unfair, I have a lot more respect for the Duke of Edinburgh than his useless son Andrew!

What about that other waste of space Edward. I wonder what Philip thought when he was 'washed out' of the Royal Marines??
