  2. The end of the funniest man in the Royal family, a toast to a fine gentleman! Two of my children were Duke of Edinburgh award recipients, and I was in the Australian Tri Service Federation guard in 1988 on his visit to Australia.

    cheers

  3. Not a man who got much attention in the US.... which probably says a lot positive about his character!
