While the world has been waiting to hear of the birth of the future Queen or King of England, there have been very exciting happenings here at the castle.
The Knights have been in deep discussions with the King about the prospect of adding another member to the Round Table. The King was initially quite indisposed to the idea – let’s just say he exercised vigorous veto power. Our kingdom didn’t need more royalty, the round table seated everyone comfortably. Then the Sirs assumed a position that could not be debated – they made room for one more.
I will say, that I spent a fair amount of time convincing the King that this was a good idea. True, he called me ‘relentless’, ‘one-tracked’ and thankfully, ‘cute’. I also received tremendous support from the Regal In-Laws, who prevailed upon their son to be a bit less stubborn when faced with his beloved’s meager request for one more knight..
So without further ado – please meet Sir Bogart – known around the palace as Bogey. His name is a testament to the King’s love of golf and my insistence that any Knight that joins our round table be above par. For they are all in my view, way above average.
Bogey won’t be ready to come home until late August, but in the interim, we will be visiting him and taking pictures to forward along. Given the enormity of this announcement, I frankly think that Wills and Kate’s baby is now a second page story (at least in Vienna, VA).
Waiting for the Karma Truck
