Charming Charles impresses Mathilde with his gallantry
Princess Mathilde of Belgium might be married to her own prince but that doesn't prevent her appreciating the attentions of another charming royal. The 35-year-old mum of three, who is expecting her fourth child this spring, seemed positively coy as Prince Charles turned on the old-fashioned charm and gallantly kissed her hand. I have to say that our dear Mathilde has a special taste concerning men !
Japan's crown prince has been told by the bureaucrat who runs the Imperial Household to visit his parents, the emperor and empress, more often. If my parents would have looked as good humoured as these two, I don't think I would go there more often either !

The year of the Rat increased hamster price. Before February 7, the chinese New Year, a hamster was sold for five yuans (50 Euro cents) Today they cost 6 times more.
Stupid me ! If I would have known that I would have bought at least 200 hamsters and sold them now ! Again a missed occasion to become rich !
Mr. Rude
British children learn politness rules with help of "Mr. Rude". Mr. Rude speaks english with a very strong french accent. The French Minister of Culture was very upset and accused the British government to give a wrong image of the Frenchs. For that he is right except for the inhabitants of Paris ! They are indeed very rude !
