        On their coronation, they don't normally use their previous first names (or the names by which they were known) as their monarch names. "George VI" (the Queen's father) was actually called "Bertie" (Albert), and his brother, "Edward VIII", was called David. It's all very English ...

      Maybe he was on sale because he had no hair?

      I'm happy for the couple - they both seem to be nice people with their feet firmly on the ground.
