Noticed the book today, in whsmiths in the town of Luton, where its stacked and displayed on the surface right next to the tills, like chewing gum, like you might just not be able to resist it. That's not normal for hardback books at all is it.

If a book's sold 1,400,000 copies already you're going to stick it in the most prominent places. As well as 25 taliban Harry's responsible for killing a great number of trees

does she not have a surname i mean. Or did she shed it at some point, and become 'of kent' instead of it, or what.

 

[Wilf]

Falling on deaf ears considered offensive The harmful ableist language you unknowingly use

Good point/mea culpa.

Anne's daughter Zara is now Mrs Michael Tindall according to that royal lineage list. I think they're taking the Michael even as they bestow it.

Anne’s kids don’t have royal titles though

Windsor

No I know, but she wasn't called Michael. I know she married one but her name's flipping Zara. It's such a silly tradition (as is the monarchy tbf), which I thought had died a death.
I remember my mum getting a card from some relly who'd addressed it to "Mrs [Husband's first name] [Surname]" and even as a kid it annoyed me.

 

[bimble]

I see that 'For the most part, members of the Royal Family who are entitled to the style and dignity of HRH Prince or Princess do not need a surname, but if at any time any of them do need a surname' it's Mountbatten-Windsor. Didn't even know that, thought it was just the windsor.
They just make it up as they go along.

That used to be the convention even for muggles in my lifetime.

Ah yeah I know what you mean.

Even as a small lad that seemed illogical to me - because Mrs John Smith is probably not called John!

Exactly!

And you'd never have eg Mr Laura Palmer

I think in German you still get 'Frau Doktor blah' as the way of addressing a woman who happened to marry a dr, which is even weirder. Maybe its stopped now idk.

My parents still do this, it's mind-boggling.
When they send me a birthday card it is addressed to "Mrs N Wxxxxxxxx"
For the love of god why???

 

[muscovyduck]

Someone needs to start a "which banned posters have you been accused of being" poll

Your actual parents send you cards addressed to Mrs your husbands initial then your surname ? that is astonishing.

They did that with his mothers book. It was stacked up at the tills. I remember asking my brother to lend me his pocket money so I could double what I had, so I could buy it.

What do they get called if they are the doctor?
