Hopeless royal baby bandwagon-jumping August 2013

I'm not quite sure what the connection is between Daphne the okapi and the latest royal birth (is it called George?). Similar thing going on at Whipsnade too. I suppose will be told it is all a bit of fun - and it is totally harmless of course.

As an American who cannot understand your (meaning Britons) fascination with the royal family, all I can say is oh brother. :rolleyes:
(Honestly, I cannot understand why you still put up with having a monarchy at all.)

It's a bafflement which many of us over here share. I have nothing against the royals, and I like the fact that a number of them are openly pro-zoo, but I just don't understand why the actions of a rather privileged and not especially interesting family should cause such excitement amongst the population as a whole.
 
Perhaps because we like it that way and don't trust politicians to any great extent ?

Neither do I. But I do understand that a very large proportion of the TV crews outside the hospital and the palace were from the USA.

In my experience, the attached neatly sums up most of the UK population's views on Royal events.

(with apologies that this has circulated so widely I have no idea who the original creator was)

Brilliant. Sums it up perfectly! As for the original photo, I have every confidence in its appearance in "Private Eye"....:D
 
Probably the most feeble attempt at a link-up for publicity purposes, that I've seen in a long time, trying to make a connection where there really isn't one. Just naff.....
