@Tinkrbl44   you would think with all the bucks they have they woukd have some splashy baths, huh?   I read Buckingham Palace hadn't been update since 1950.circuts were overloaded, etc. but they did start a program 2017, that ends in 2027 of up dating.  As far as other programs go, it's sort of darned  if you do, darned if you don't. If they spend the millions, it's is their  money... spending on their properties, but people gripe about them spending.  lol. They have so many properties that are historical, they do need permission to move or alter some buildings.  I know the cottage, ( by Royal standards) William and Kate lived in before upgrading ..then moving was really bad. They actually had trouble modernizing some plumbing as it required altering building.   My, my what problems the Royals have. Aren't they one of the richest people in the world. Not so much cash, as holdings, and their holdings are all over the world

@tansy , yup... just like his plebes.  lol. Thank goodness they do have laws regarding historical buildings, Royalty not excluded.  I just read the British Monarchy is worth over 88 Billion...far behind other monarchy's .  They are poor compared to UAR monarchy's and Lichensteins...

Mr. & Mrs. "KING" also have a "past", and should keep their mouths shut...

Adultry is despicable but not the same as Andrew's crimes.

Andrew will live on king Charles Sandringham estate and the king will finacially support

Andrew. Get real! Harry will be next (stripped of his title) when William becomes king.
