Here's some credit for the York princesses.
Beatrice HAS cut back on her drinking. You can see the difference in the photos of her leaving clubs this year versus phots from when she first started clubbing (No glazed over look in the eyes like we always see on Chelsy, nobody helping her to stand up, etc) She made the connection between when I drink a lot, I gain weight and decided she'd rather be slimmer. Perhaps Eugenie will also make the connection between alcohol and excess, empty caleries and follow her sister's lead.
Both princesses seem to spend less time with celebs like Peaches Geldof. Maybe the are meeting a better class of people while at university. I just hope they figure out what to do with their life, other than become a mini version of their mother, because their Uncle Charles has made it plain that they will NOT be offered a place in The Firm when HE is Chairman of the Board.
As for Charles's sons, they too have improved the past year. Somebody finally got it through William's balding head that it IS possible to train for the military and make a official appearance or two. Harry has also concentrated on his training, done a few appearances. I just hope getting back with Chelsy isn't going to mean a backslide. For all her bellyaching about him drinking too much, it seems that all she's inetersted in doing with him is boozing is clubs or boozing on vacation.
