Catherine held a reception for the England Wheelchair Rugby League team at Hampton Court Palace

This time Jessica Taylor teams up with Rebecca English and Lydia Hawken.

Five paragraphs about clothing and how much everything cost.

Ten paragraphs about the sister-in-law and her claims about what colors she wore.

Lots of paragraphs about the visit before switching to two paragraphs about what William was doing this morning.

Then six paragraphs about the brother-in-law and the Taliban, presumably for the benefit of the handful of people who just crawled out from under the rock where they had been hiding for the past month.

I like to see what Catherine (or other royal ladies) wears to events but I couldn't care less about how much it cost. I'd rather hear about the importance of her appearance somewhere.

"Tom Coyd, the squad's head coach, said: 'Her Royal Highness is just so engaging. It's probably the most privileged we have felt since winning the World Cup…That was the icing on the cake.

'She said she'd watched the final with her kids and she knew loads about the sport already and was talking about how exciting it was, how it's really fierce in terms of collisions.

'She said it would be great for us to go and do an engagement session at the school where her children attend.'"

You know she means that, too. I had to laugh when she said Louis was playing kamikazi rugby! It's a tough sport, period, so I wonder how much more tough these men must be to play it.

What I love is Catherine can talk to these rugby players and she knows her stuff, she's always been sports oriented, but to talk rugby with these guys earns her even more respect.
