Where have I been, I had no idea the UK PM had a Camp David.

Dwight Eisenhower - grandfather of David Eisenhower for whom Camp David is named -- spent time at Chequers. Franklin Roosevelt also loved Chequers, but he loved Warm Springs, Georgia more -- for obvious reasons --

While I was thinking that this was usually only done by close, male, relatives— so it’s significant that Princess Anne will be walking.

Princess Anne was a favorite of her father's. She was much more like him than any of her brothers and took over the tile of Captain General of the Royal Marines after he nephew followed his true love to the United States.

I highly recommend watching SkyNews UK live coverage of Prince Philip's funeral -- features commentary by Alastair Bruce -- he is a stellar Royal contributor, former British Army Major General and current Governor of Edinburgh Castle who knew Prince Philip well and has extensive, thoughtful commentary and background.

As a members od BRF double that. Pople are paying them to behave. Being on the taxpayers roll they should controll themselves without extra separation.. unles this is all about putting a show and upping the drama.

The placement of precedence for this formation is that of eldest grandchild -- Peter Phillips in the center -- who is placed in center because of his being the eldest grandchild. Highest "ranking" person always goes in the middle, then next-ranked to the center person's immediate right (William) then to Peter's left (Harry).


They are not using royal rankings, in which case William would be in the middle and then Harry on his right.

Also, Prince Edward and Sophie, Countess of Wessex and their family are extremely close to the Queen and live near Windsor. They were all very close to Prince Philip, and Lady Louise particularly had a close bond with Prince Philip, who encouraged her love and talent in horse-carriage driving. Prince Philip embraced carriage driving after he was forced to give up polo due to injury.

Alastair Bruce's style is so good -- reminds me of Lucy Worsley (for those of you who follow British historical documentaries) in terms of breadth of knowledge and vignettes. Such great coverage so far.
