Netflix could step in to help run American Riviera Orchard

Or this could come under the heading of wishful thinking. Or pigs could fly.

She needs someone to take the helm so she can blame them when it goes down in flames.

Posted by Susan T on April 27, 2024, 4:19 pm, in reply to "April 26 - This One and His Wife"

Ms Trudeau, who was formerly married to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, has played down her friendship with The Duchess, who previously implied she shared a close bond with Sophie and admired her as being 'emblematic of strength'.

How was Ms. Trudeau an emblem of strength? Because she married a prominent person?

And DM: it's coiffed, not quaffed. Hair is coiffed, alcohol is quaffed.

A small yet pertinent point. Sohpie is still the wife of Prime Minister Trudeau. The couple have separated (for now), but they remain husband and wife (for now).

I thought that they weren't divorce yet.

Invited to Nigeria by government?

Posted by Susan T on April 28, 2024, 2:39 pm, in reply to "April 26 - This One and His Wife"

The couple have been invited to Nigeria by the country's chief of defence staff, who met Harry in Germany last September at the Invictus Games Dusseldorf.

They will meet service members and their families and participate in 'traditional cultural activities', according to Nigerian media.

Will the government pay the Wife for coming? And will the government provide for her $250,000 warderobe? And will they provide the private airplane and armed guards?

It's a deflection by the Nigerian Govt. to shift the problems the country is undergoing. The Govt. dropped all oil subsidies it previously passed on to the public and inflation has hit the public hard. Unemployment is sky high. There's the problem of Boko Haram, the Islamic group that has been terrorizing the people for years.
Interesting that 2 weeks ago Boko Haram kidnapped another large group of school children and the military hasn't been able to do anything. Suddenly the Harkles are "invited" to come to Nigeria to make everything right. (Ten years ago 200+ young girls were abducted by Boko Haram, the majority are still unaccounted for, those that escaped, escaped on their own. The Govt. has really not done anything to bring the remaining girls home).
Harry is going into a country with an uncontrolled Islamic militant group..the "hero" who bragged about killing 25 Taliban and didn't care. Yeah. I wouldn't trust the Nigerian security/military for protection.

I work supporting refugees and there are many from Nigeria. (And Kenya and Zimbabwe) I don't think I'll ask them what they think....

There are times you really want to ask questions, but have to hold back. That would be interesting to find out. I know when Meghan announced she was 43% Nigerian, tweets were posted from Nigerians that were less than flattered or thrilled.

It occurs to me .....

Posted by Martha on April 29, 2024, 6:48 pm, in reply to "April 26 - This One and His Wife"

Charles is resuming royal duties and will have an excellent reason for not being available to see the younger son when he swings by the UK for the Invictus event. Even the King of England cannot be in two places at once, so if Charles is out kinging he can't be in London at the same time. That leaves a perfect out for not entertaining That One for even a quick visit.

It's been reported that Charles won't have time for any meet ups with Harry or at the very least, he'll only have a few minutes of time for any "meeting".

Another jam jar reveal

Posted by Susan T on April 30, 2024, 12:00 pm, in reply to "April 26 - This One and His Wife"

This feels like a very bad take on Advent calendars. Every day, another nasty person reveals that they have been tasked with promoting TOW's jam.

This individual is particularly nasty and stupid if she thinks that an event scheduled months in advance could be delayed for a couple of hours for a child's birthday.

She lives in Northridge? Not exactly the ritziest part of the Valley (not by a long shot).

William and Catherine were in Wales that day - as in they were out of the country representing the queen at an official appearance. What a dunce. What was shady is that the Harkles wouldn't stay in town another week and celebrate with family the following weekend. They got out of town as fast as they could so they could complain about the Jubilee not being rearranged around a one year-old's birthday.

Garcelle isn't that big of a deal. She signed on to the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills a few years ago so it's a given she needed the money. They've shown her at her house in Northridge and it's certainly not all that. She must be with WME because Garcelle has never mentioned being chummy with Markle before.

Rumor I read on my phone between power outages: Meghan sent a jar of jam to Adele and Kevin Costner..the jars were sent back to Meghan.

Invictus Games Criticized For Becoming "Too Royal"

Posted by karenl on April 30, 2024, 7:42 pm, in reply to "Re: Another jam jar reveal"

I would say, "Too Meghan and too merching".

"Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's recent involvement in the Invictus Games has been criticised for becoming "too royal", as 2000 veterans have left the games."
"The Duke of Sussex helped in finding the Invictus Games in 2014, and was applauded for this work.

However, recently veterans have claimed the games have “lost their meaning” with Meghan Markle’s participation, and they are asking Prince Harry to step down.

A royal expert said what was once Harry's "great achievements", has now become "imperilled" in recent years"

I think the reporter meant Harry helped in founding the Games, which he didn't.

Question..

Posted by karenl on May 1, 2024, 12:49 am, in reply to "Invictus Games Criticized For Becoming "Too Royal" "

I've missed the last several days, not my fault, it's Mother Nature's. Harry is going to London for the service for the 10th anniversary of IG. Is that all that's being done to commemorate IG or are there any other activities planned for the organization other than the church service? I know it's VE Day, so Harry can show off his medals. It's been reported that none of the other Royals, especially William will attend the service, although, it was reported a week or so ago by Neil Sean that William was invited by IG.
This is Harry's way of his own military "salute". Interesting that the Nigeria visit was suddenly tacked on. Well, the wife had to do something, she's too much of a coward to return to the UK. The story is out that she was "very concerned about security for herself and the kids", came out after Harry lost his suit against the Govt. What a laugh. She can't let Harry be in the spotlight for very long.

On X/Twitter the Invictus Foundation has stated that the 10th Anniversary will be marked in May with lots of activities and asks folk to follow them across social media for more information as the month goes on. Nothing other than the Service at St. Paul's has been announced so far. Personally I see this as a 'Pop In/Pop Out' trip for Him. Rather like his did for the Coronation last year.

Here most of us are more interested in celebrating the 79th anniversary of VE Day.
