Not.

 

News.

news

/noun/    newly received or noteworthy information, especially about recent events

 

The seventh in line to the Throne has just been born whose parents happen to be the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and whose own wedding was watched by an estimated 18m people in the UK and 29m people in the USA.       Why would that not be newsworthy?

 

You clearly are not interested but given the birth of this particular child is headline on nearly every newspaper front page, trending on twitter, leading story on BBC and ITN news services and currently secondary headline position on NBC, CBS and ABC news in the USA,  somebody must be interested. 

 

Given the 24/7 misery of Brexit and Political Leadership incompetence we have endured on the news over the past few years its actually refreshing to have a pleasent story for a change.

The birth of a child is exciting. But also exhausting. Very exhausting. And scary.

 

Still, God bless their little family.  Hope they enjoy these early days with their baby because this time passes so quickly and children grow so fast.

I completely agree with you.

Congratulations to all mothers giving birth to babies today. And every day.

I think this is a fabulous event, everyone I meet can’t stop talking about. There’s a real atmosphere of joyful celebration on Woodseats, especially in Wetherspoons.

I think it will be called Ian.

Thank you beefface for giving me a really good laugh. Yorkshire humour at its best. 😂  Shame that the post  will be deleted. 🙁

I couldn't agree more. 

 

Congratulations to Meghan and Harry.

Just seen him on the TV,   he's a beautiful baby.

  Meghan and Harry looked so proud and happy.

Once again ........  congratulations.

[PRESLEY]

I wish Diana could have seen her Grandson. I think she would have got on well with Meghan.  🙂

I think Nicholas Witchell, the Royal correspondent was stuck outside Buckingham Palace (not sure why) on the arrival of their baby, and he literally couldn't collect his thoughts - probably the tedium of his job. 

Anyway they've called the kid Archie
