“The 41-gun salutes of royal artillery companies at the Tower of London and Hyde Park signaled a king for the 21st century. Well-wishers pressed to the very gates of Buckingham Palace to read for themselves the placard that royal assistants hung out for the world to see last Monday eve: ”Her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales was safely delivered of a son at 9:03 p.m. today. Her Royal Highness and her child are both doing well.”“

Prince William Arthur Philip Louis of Wales, June 21st 1982.

Happy birthday, my love.
