A right royal mess !

The actions of " Fergie " - the Duchess of York - have not done a lot to uphold the good standing of the Royal family - or the monarchy for that matter !

Trying to peddle access to her ex-husband for half a million dollars is not exactly the behavior expected of somebody who exalted in being addressed as " Your Royal Highness ".

But then Fergie was an unfortunate choice of bride for a Royal person !

She has been perilously close to financial disaster on many occasions, and yet has not learned to tailor her spending to her income. When Concorde was flying the Atlantic she was a regular passenger. She seems to consider the high life her prerogative - as long as somebody else is paying the bill.

The poor old Queen must despair. She has led a blameless life - with the single indiscretion of indifference in the early days of Princess Diana's untimely death - and yet her good example has been consistently let down by lesser Royals.

Fergie has certainly handed a media bonanza to those republicans steadily chipping away at support for the monarchy !
