FFS the coverage of this Royal baby is madness.

She has had a baby, it's a boy and mother and baby are well. Do we need to halt the whole of the evening television regurgitating these three facts. It is nauseous hurl !

I know. I'm generally mildly pro-royal but I really can't be arsed with all this.

Me too MRS, but discussing the font style on the announcement notice was just pushing me beyond the limit. I want a new TV so may throw the coffee table through the screen soon evil

Oh ... hold on, .... a cleaner has just exited the building.

Someone who's been pregnant for nine months has baby. Pictures at eleven... this is news?

It's not so much the emphasis on the whole royal schtick, though I'm no royalist - what winds me up is the hushed voices and sycophancy and nauseating grovelling...

But it's not every day that you get to see a small ginger cloud9 on daytime television.

Scoop on the name front, the new Royasl want to be "with it" and "on trend" and have decided on a new take on an old name. They did consider "Will I Am" but have decided that did not sound correct so have settles on "Will One Is"

I do think that the Royal thing is good for the Country (certainly better than having a President!)......

But this is ridiculous and I have to agree with all the comments so far!

Dear monos, a secret truth.

I have been almost entirely unaffected by this, much as I expect to be by the child's whole life (barring it having its fingers in my pocket). Last night, instead of the telly, I watched the 70's "gang" film "Warriors", which was hilarious, in particular given the huge fuss about it at the time of its release. Today it just looks like a rather camp cross between Fame and The A Team.

However, I would like to suggest to the Royal Couple that they name their baby Kibbutz.

"Warriors... coming out to play yay" They re-used the costume wardrobe for Michaels Jacksons' Thriller video.

That's the fella. We wondered how the roller-skating gang fared when faced with stairs (ask the daleks).

I didn't know that about the Thriller video!
