Money well spent ?

Nice to see that no expense is being spared ( on behalf of the tax payer ) in ensuring that this young lady is well rounded , when it comes to life out there , in the big bad world .

It does say � 100,000 doesn't it - or have I misread it ?

You are spot on Berti - yes �100,000 - apparently she is having a gap year - from what I am not sure. It makes me laugh - the Royal offspring go to university, take courses etc - but they never do get a 'proper' job.

Well if we are going have a royal family we have to protect them.

See what happened in Holland last week with that madman in a car who drove at the royal bus.

I am no great lover of the royal family, but as I say, if we have to have one they need protection.

Funny though that she is having a "gap" year, a gap from what?

So, does that mean that had it been her friends getting mugged the RPOs would just have stood by and chuckled?

Mind you, the article is ambiguous: it gives the impression that it was the purse of one of her friends which was snatched but also goes on to refer to Eugenie's purse?

And isn't it typical of Buck House, refusing to confirm/deny how much it's costing the taxpayer for the honour of protecting this young waste of rations?

"When one of her friends got a purse out, the mugger grabbed it. The officers were just feet away.

The two officers rugby-tackled one of the bandits as he tried to flee with the princess's purse. "

it dont make sense. are they just trying to mould the facts of the event into a story?
