The UK Royal Baby is being born...

I Heart Internet

....well, any day now he/she will be.

The due date is supposedly this Saturday 13th July.

Are you interested in the happy event?
Do you think it will be a boy or a girl?
What do you think they will name the child?
Finland has sent the new parents one of their baby boxes. What would be an appropriate gift for Ireland to send?

1. No
2. Yes I think it will be a boy or a girl.
3. Something posh.
4. Maybe give them another county? I wouldn't miss Leitrim.

Jesus, do country's actually send gifts for this crap? I sincerely hope Ireland doesn't waste any money on it.

What? Like a couple of hundred euro? It's diplomacy - soft power.

Personally, I think it'd be a great boost (to the economy, neighbourly relations and the peace process) to invite the young family to spend a week in West Cork once the missus is back on her feet.

The Backwards Man

Constantly whining, moaning, crying, throwing tantrums, spoiled rotten, born with a silver spoon in it's mouth, into a culture of expectancy and waited on hand and foot for life.

Sounds like the Royal Baby might be Irish!

1. Not interested in minor celebrity bull.
2. Meh
3. Meh
4. The bill for their grandmothers visit here.

I hold no grudge against the child, and in fact sympathise with it somewhat for being born into such a constrained/scrutinised lifestyle. I despise the media-fawning over what is just another child birth.

I strongly dislike the concept of monarchy, despite having no particular issues with any member of the British Royal family in particular.

BluesBerry

The have closed of all parking around the hospital for the month of July and william has a helicopter on stand by

They said it will be announced on a easle in front of buckingham palace what the child will be named

She let it slip that it could be a Girl when someone gave her a teddy and she said thanks ill give that to my D... before she stopped herself ..Id say it would be a traditional oldfashioned name

Ireland should send a claddagh bracelet or something like that the finnish box looks brilliant

Oh the excitement

:pac:

After the topless photos taken of kate maybe a feminist t-shirt to show solidarity?

One of those Learn Irish teddy bears and an invite to spend a week in West Cork once they're back on their feet.

Any subject vaguely related to Kate's gooter has some kind of worth, I guess.

Easy mistake to make when you said 'their' - didn't realise Kate's granny also had a holiday in Ireland which we subsidised.

A 5 pack of baby grows from Dunnes Stores

Supposedly the royal baby will be cuzins with Kim and Kanyes baby....

Lisha

Well it's happy news so why not be interested, it won't affect my life in any real way, but best of luck to them all anyway

I think it's going to be a girl named Charlotte Mary Diana

Send them a good wishes card

The contrary part of me hopes no other baby gets less attention than they deserve due to this 'special birth'
Every child is special

[Deleted User]

My sister is due in October. Will she get a thread?

Badly Drunk Boy

I'm about as interested in this birth as I am in the thousands of other babies that will be born around the same time. Not at all.

One thing I did heard about it (present-wise) was that Sudocrem, the eradicators of nappy rash, are sending a £10,000 pot of their famous product as a present. That can do as the Irish present since Sudocrem was invented in Dublin.

This is the crux of the matter. Every child is special, and equally special, despite what the British media is going to portray over the next few days.

It would be a nice gesture....you know seeing as they loaned us a few billion and all that after the banks ****ed up:rolleyes:

They could do with some fresh commoner genes to flush out centuries of inbreeding.

+1000000 Yes to the babygros, a fantastic present. Vests are great too.
Sounds sad but practical gifts are great .
Small cute outfits are great but practical gifts rock.

Even better than West Cork would be somewhere scenic, say Mullaghmore in County Sligo? A place with special resonance for the Royal Family, you might say ...

Note that the child's name is not necessarily the name he or she will take as monarch. If Charles becomes King, it won't be as King Charles III, for historical reasons. So while I think that Mary is unlikely, since it could be associated with Mary, Queen of Scots (who was executed on orders of Elizabeth I), it's not impossible. There was a Queen Mary before, but she was a queen consort, not in the line of succession.

Kate is a "commoner", if you want to use that expression.
