I don't really get this, why isn't the No. 32 Squadron RAF flying them over and if Camilla finds it so gruelling why only stay for a few days why come over at all.
If the Queen wants the Monarchy to survive after her rein the baton needs to be handed down to William and Kate, don't know the feeling in the UK but here in AU if Charles and Camilla show continues Australia will turn into a republic

The Times of London contacted TFF this week, seeking the Australian Republic Movement’s views on the fact that for the coming visit to Australia by Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall, she will only be staying for a few days and won’t accompany the prince for the rest of his tour around the country he hopes he will be king of, as she reportedly finds such flights "gruelling".
If it is good enough for royals to fly a commercial airline that far, why not come the whole way, instead of all the hideously expensive palaver of sending an RAAF jet to get them? What can be the explanation for such nonsense?

Fortune favors brave sir, said Carrot cheerfully.
What's her position about heavily armed, well prepared and overmanned armies?
Oh, noone's ever heard of Fortune favoring them, sir.
According to General Tacticus, it's because they favor themselves…

Someone's trying to stir the pot, but I can see the political fall out from it even after this long a time. would be very interesting to see whom said what.

Preview: "The Queen's Green Planet"
No, it's not a programme that confirms HM The Queen's alleged reptillian home planet origins, but instead about her plans to create a Commonwealth Canopy of trees throughout the Commonwealth.
ITV tonight, 21:00.

^ Willow featured in the famous 2012 Olympics scene with Her Majesty and James Bond (Daniel Craig).
The Queen's last remaining Corgi, 'Willow', (14) has been put to sleep. For the first time since 1940, there are no Corgis in the entire Royal household. However, two Dachshund-Corgi cross breeds (known as Dorgis) are still alive, named Vulcan and Candy.

How do you prepare to fire a gun salute fit for a Prince? King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery fired a 41-gun salute in Green Park in honour of Prince Charles' 70th birthday, with their preparations beginning at Wellington Barracks...

BBC News: Prince Philip unhurt after car crash
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-46912691The Duke of Edinburgh has been involved in a car crash, Buckingham Palace has said.
Prince Philip, 97, was not injured in the accident, which happened close to the Queen's Sandringham estate in Norfolk shortly before 15:00 GMT.
Buckingham Palace said the crash involved another vehicle and police attended the scene.
The duke was driving a Range Rover and was pulling out of a driveway onto the A149 when the accident happened.
According to eyewitnesses, the car that the duke was driving overturned.
The eyewitnesses said they helped the duke out of the vehicle. He was conscious but "very, very shocked" and shaken, they added.
The BBC's royal correspondent Nicholas Witchell added that two people in the other vehicle - a saloon car - were treated for minor injuries, according to reports from Norfolk Police.
The duke is back at Sandringham and has seen a doctor as a precaution, who confirmed he was not injured.
Re: Royal News
I know he can be a stubborn old goat, but why is he still driving at 97 (and yes, if I ever get that far, I hope everything still works enough to try it )
EDIT:
If he gets to 100 does he get a telegram from the Queen?
