Charles never struck me as an ignorant man. 2:2? Daaaaag. Well, I’m a fine one to talk. I graduated uni with a GPA of 2.9, which is about the US equivalent.
You have to serve in the armed forces, I believe, as a male Royal. Even Elizabeth was in the Women’s Corps during WWII. At least these boys enjoy it. I feel as if Andrew did, as well. I can’t imagine what else they could do where no one makes fun of them; I mean, poor Charles gets roundly jeered any time he talks about agriculture or architecture, and japes about Edward’s theatre and media work have been going on since the 1990s. I mean, what can they do that people won’t try to take them down a peg besides the military?
They shake hands and open hospitals and people say they don’t work, but when they try other things, people give them the hairy eyeball as well. I guess if they gave back the money and the land and the castles and the jewels and paintings and had to get work, then I suppose folks would be satisfied.
