    Get Well Soon, Your Royal Highness

    During the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Concert on Monday evening, Sir Paul McCartney announced his concern over Prince Philip's hospitalisation - adding that *everyone present had their fingers crossed for his speedy recovery ...

    ... to which some wag supposedly piped up that, at least - unlike what the Duke had been forced to do aboard the Thames barge the previous afternoon - *THEY wouldn't be required to "sit with their legs crossed" for four hours.

    Quite right Arthur.

    I suppose he could have sat if he'd wanted to, but sense of duty is strong with him. It can't have helped.

    It's a bit worrying, with him being the age he is.

    I wish him the best of luck, and a happy birthday to an under-appreciated gentleman.

    I'm sure he'd been professionally equipped with his slimline "adult pampers".

    Comes to us all in the end

    He's out of hospital ready for a few snifters in the wardroom later

    Prince Philip has left hospital after a five-night stay receiving treatment for a bladder infection.

    Smiling, he waved to well-wishers and shook hands with staff, a day before his 91st birthday on Sunday.

    That's good ... [in advance] to him.

    And at 91 ... "Many Happy Returns" (from hospital) to anyone else of his vintage!
