I was at the theatre last night and the punchline to one of the jokes was "and King Charles the Third". I momentarily thought that was a bit odd, then realised that he's not "Prince of Wales" anymore (and the rhythm of the joke suggested that was the original line).

When do we get the day off for Charles hat party?

Saturday 6th May but it's going to be overshadowed by Eurovision. One is an overly expensive festival of unnecessary overproduction and over elaboration, and the other's a song contest.

Government confirms bank holiday on the Monday after Big Hat Day.

Great time to have a work contract saying "33 days holiday a year, including bank holidays"

Is the government expecting everyone to get so wrecked at the hat party that the country will miss out Sunday but come up smiling on Monday morning?

I know nothing about it and I'm sick of hearing about it already

I'm disappointed that the BBC have decided to call the Christmas message The King rather than Charlie Says....

You've only got yourself to blame

Up to Chapter 30 (sept 2001) it doesn't get much better writing wise. Theme remains "I'm angry, and sad, want love, and I miss my mum" with the odd poke at his brother.

It's like a warped version of Catcher in the Rye

My MP is holding a design a card competition for Charlie's Hat Party.

Disappointingly, I don't appear to meet the eligibility criteria despite an initial idea involving plants, organic bath oils, all his siblings, sanitary products, and Diana looking down from Heaven.

“The winner and their family will be invited to the Palace of Westminster to have tea with me following the coronation.”

You need to ask what second prize is.

Darwin has to make a shoebox diorama with hard boiled eggs for a school project/competition.

The theme is ‘His Eggcellency, King Charles’, and should Demonstrate either a significant moment in Charles’s life or an area of his interests.

The cardboard tunnel with a smashed egg inside a cardboard car idea has been vetoed, so we’re probably going with a big-eared egg talking to some plants.

My whole weekend is going to be spent supervising a seven year old swaddling a mini egg Prince William in toilet roll, isn’t it?

And it seems to me, you lived your life, like an egg in toilet roll.
